Job description

Title: Book Department Editor
Reports to: Vice President of Editorial and Director of Editorial, Book Department
General Description of Responsibilities:
The academic book editor will serve Crossway's publishing ministry by copyediting book manuscripts and managing the editorial process for those book projects through the editing, typesetting, proofreading, and indexing stages. He or she will strive to ensure excellence of content, beauty of expression, and theological faithfulness. The editor will work under and closely with the vice president of Editorial and the director of Editorial, and will collaborate with the rest of the Book Department team (including Editorial and Acquisitions colleagues), the Production team, and other Crossway colleagues as needed.
Specific Responsibilities:
  • Copyediting eight to twelve books per calendar year for content, style, and doctrine, with a focus on books toward the academic end of the spectrum but also including some trade books
  • Managing book projects through the editing, typesetting, proofreading, and indexing phases, concluding with handoff to the Manufacturing Department
  • Interacting with typesetters to provide all that they need to do their jobs effectively
  • Engaging and reviewing the work of freelance proofreaders and indexers
  • Working through projects in an efficient, timely manner
  • Meeting regularly with supervisor and others to discuss project issues
  • Handling other editorial needs that arise

Position Requirements:
  • Undergraduate degree in English, Bible, theology, history, philosophy, or a closely related field
  • Master's or doctoral degree in historical theology, church history, systematic theology, biblical and theological studies, or Old or New Testament
  • Familiarity with biblical languages; familiarity with Latin also helpful
  • Demonstrated copyediting experience for a publishing house or in another professional context, including copyediting of multiple book-length academic manuscripts
  • A thorough knowledge of The Chicago Manual of Style (including but not limited to its citation style)
  • Attention to detail, ability to focus for long periods, ability to communicate clearly, and strong organizational and time-management skills
  • Adherence to a robust evangelical theology in the historic stream of the Reformation-that is, broadly Reformed in line with the doctrinal DNA of Crossway's publishing ministry-and willingness to affirm Crossway's Statement of Faith, Statement of Classic Reformation Orthodoxy, and statements on Human Sexuality and Complementarity

Publishing Ministry Commitment:
Commitment to the Crossway publishing ministry and vision, as summarized in the following statement of purpose: By God's grace: (a) to bring men, women, and children to Christ as their Lord and Savior; (b) to help individual Christians and the church grow in knowledge and understanding of the Bible and the Christian life; (c) to bear witness to God's Truth, Beauty, and Righteousness, and the Lordship of Christ in every area of life; and (d) to glorify our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in every way.
Personal Qualities:
A love for God's Word and His church. Committed to an evangelical, historic Reformation understanding of the Bible, the gospel, and Christian doctrine. A genuine faith in Jesus Christ as one's Lord and Savior, and active participation in a local church. Pleasing personal demeanor with a willing, servant's heart. Creative, energetic, organized, timely, excellence in execution.
Benefit Program:
  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans for full time employees after 30 days of employment with employer contribution to costs
  • Three medical plan options available with monthly premium costs for a family from $125-$300
  • Life, long term, and short term disability insurance for full time employees paid by company
  • Additional voluntary life insurance offerings paid by employee
  • Paid vacation and illness days for full time employees (part time employees PTO accrual based on hours worked.)
  • 11 paid holiday for full time employees (part time employees holiday pay dependent on schedule)
  • Participation in retirement plan including 25% company match of up to $1,500 for full time and part time employees (temporary employees not eligible.)

Salary:
Salary range is $65,000 to $95,000. This range reflects the full scope of potential compensation for this role. Most candidates can expect to fall at the midpoint of the range, with placement determined by experience, skills, and demonstrated ability for the position. Salary also will be commensurate with current standards for comparable positions and responsibilities within publishing and other leading not-for-profit ministries.
Other:
  • This is a full-time position.
  • On-site work preferred, but remote work negotiable.
