What we’re looking for:

Strong proofreading skills – speed and accuracy are key in this role.
Excellent spelling and grammar.
Good attention to detail and an appreciation for children’s creativity.
A positive team player who’s organised and reliable.

A Level in either English Literature or Language

A genuine passion for reading, you’ll be doing a lot of it in this role

Ability to meet reading speed and competency targets within recruitment process

Why join Young Writers?

At Young Writers, you’ll play a part in helping children across the UK and USA experience the pride of seeing their words in print – and that’s something truly special. We’re a passionate, friendly team who care deeply about what we do, and you’ll be supported every step of the way.

We also offer;

Flexible start times – choose to start your day anytime between 7am and 9am once training is complete
A fun, welcoming work environment – with two company parties a year and plenty of team activities
