Junior Proofreader

6 months ago


Portslade, United Kingdom Lyonsbennett Full time

We are a purpose-driven and successful corporate reporting agency based on the south coast against a stunning sea view backdrop.

We started 15 years ago in a shared office, with one Premier League football club as a client and a vision to produce creative and engaging annual reports.

This focus has helped us grow into the award-winning agency we are today, providing the opportunity to work with some of the UK’s leading companies who invest in industries and ideas that are making a positive impact on the world around us.

From environmental infrastructure that is accelerating our journey to net zero, to cutting edge immunotherapy saving lives, to AI that is helping to identify Illegal, unreported, and unregulated fishing, we help our clients to tell their stories, embody their purpose and strengthen stakeholder support and understanding.

We are successful thanks to our strong and dynamic team that helps keep us at the forefront of reporting and design. We have an exciting opening in our team for a Junior Proofreader and content checker.

In this progressive entry-level role, you will be working across a variety of client accounts to ensure house styles are maintained, checking initial content from Word to design layout, sense checking graphs and graphics and checking client text changes, helping us to deliver compelling creative projects that set us apart as an agency.

You will develop an understanding of client strategies and the importance of corporate narrative, while providing direction and feedback to ensure the final content is aligned with the client’s message and brand.

The role is well suited to a friendly, ambitious, natural communicator and team player, excited to join a dynamic and growing business, with a flair for flexibility along with the ability to work calmly under pressure.

The Junior Proofreader will work closely with our wider client team as well as creative and production colleagues in a friendly new office, based on the eastern side of Shoreham Port in Portslade.
