Wanted: Super Copy Editors
Do you have a sharp eye for quickly and accurately catching errors?
Super Copy Editors is all about high-speed proofreading without compromising on accuracy. Our Certified Super™ quality assurance underscores our commitment to excellence. We’re particularly interested in proofreaders with a background in advertising agency or marketing settings.
- This is part-time, 100% remote freelance work.
- Work is irregular and depends on our needs at the time.
- Applicants who can confidently manage same-day rushes are given priority.
Our company strongly values diversity and inclusivity. We are committed to building a team that reflects varied cultural backgrounds and perspectives.
There’s a dirty little secret in this industry.
Other, bigger proofreading services—we call them “proofreading mills”—pay their freelancers absurdly low rates. In fact, according to former staff, one of the best-known proofreading companies (with a team of hundreds) pays its proofreaders as little as $14 per hour, as of 2025.
At Super Copy Editors, we believe all members of our team deserve to be fairly compensated for their skill and expertise. Fortunately, as a specialized proofreading service based in New York City, we can offer much better pay than the proofreading mills do. However, this means we are extremely selective when it comes to adding members to our team. To put it another way, we want the best of the best.
