Are you looking for a unique opportunity to make a difference while gaining valuable skills?

This is not your standard proofreading role—it's a chance to work on meaningful projects that help create accessible resources for individuals with print impairments. No prior experience in proofreading is required, but you'll need to be proactive, eager to learn, and able to adapt quickly in a fast-paced environment.

This is an on-site role, based in our modern offices in Nantwich, just five minutes from the town centre, with free parking available.

You'll be part of a passionate, growing team making a real difference in people's lives.

What you'll do:

  • Perform proofreading duties across various products (digital, print and audio) to ensure 100% accuracy within tight deadlines and client briefs.
  • Liaise with Designers to improve document setups and share best practices.
  • Identify and report any errors in standard print documents.
  • Contribute to improving quality and compliance standards.
  • Work collaboratively with the team to meet production goals.
  • Comply with health and safety standards and workplace legislation.
  • Complete tasks within designated timescales and notify managers of any issues.
  • Undertake additional tasks as required by management or directors.

What we're looking for:

  • Literate and numerate, with competent IT skills.
  • Basic understanding of Adobe Acrobat and Microsoft Office.
  • Excellent communication skills and a proactive, "can-do" attitude.
  • Ability to work under pressure and meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong attention to detail and willingness to learn new skills.
  • A team player who thrives in a collaborative setting.

What we offer:

  • Full-time hours: 8.30–17:00 Monday to Friday.
  • Free on-site parking.
  • Modern offices in a convenient location near Nantwich town centre.

Why this role matters:
