Copy-editing for Content Consulting

Busy editorial teams often need copy rewriting to meet tight business deadlines – and corporate specialist Content Consulting is no exception.

The consultancy regularly needs short-notice copy-editing for its large B2B and B2C clients – and has turned to me to do the job.

With my experience as a business writer, I can edit copy for Content Consulting about a range of sectors, from technology to sustainability to health.

And thanks to my background as a medical sub-editor, I am able to edit highly technical copy to the tight deadlines that the consultancy demands.

Working for Content Consulting, I have:

• Rewritten reports for global teams
When one international client needed a rewrite of a specialist report, Content Consulting called me in – and I worked weekends to help put it right. The result: more clarity, more focus, and better engagement with the reader.

• Written copy to a defined tone
Large organisations often have well defined guidance on brand language. For one global client, I followed tone-of-voice guidelines to write digital copy in a customer-facing style. I supplied the copy in batches, as requested by Content Consulting, to help keep the project on track.

• Edited copy for public-facing websites
The draft copy for one client’s public website was academic and technical – so Content Consulting asked me to rewrite it into simpler English, more suited to the audience. I turned this project around in a matter of days.

As part of the project, I also helped to reorganise the sitemap and optimise the content for digital.
