Senior Director, Editorial - College Readiness Assessments

Role Type: This is a full-time position
About the Team
The Editorial team is part of College Board's Assessment Design and Development (AD&D) department. We are a collaborative team committed to producing SAT Suite test questions and related publications that are error-free, consistent in style, and aligned to established editorial standards. We also edit materials and ensure quality control for other College Board programs, such as AP and ACCUPLACER. We work closely with Math and Reading and Writing subject matter experts within AD&D and other teams across College Board to publish tests and related materials in a variety of formats, both digital and print. As a team, we are in a period of intentional growth and evolution.
