  • Strong writing, editing and proofreading skills and sound editorial judgment
  • Hands-on experience publishing and formatting content in a CMS
  • Familiarity with SEO/AEO and digital content optimization
  • Strong organizational skills and comfort managing multiple recurring workflows and deadlines
  • High attention to detail, accuracy and follow-through
