Editorial Assistants

This page ranks editorial assistants across the Creativepool network - freelancers, contractors and permanent-seeking talent alike. Results are ordered by portfolio strength, engagement, client ratings and how recently each profile has been active, so you reach people who are both good and reachable.

How to choose

Shortlist on portfolio, not job title.

Judge on portfolio relevance first, then recent activity and client recommendations. Brief two or three editorial assistants with the same outline so you can compare approach, timeline and rate on equal terms before you commit.

Frequently asked questions

01What does an editorial assistant do?

The scope of an editorial assistant varies by individual, so the portfolio is the best guide to fit - look for projects close to your brief in sector, format and ambition rather than relying on the job title alone.

02Should I hire an freelance or permanent editorial assistant?

Freelancers suit defined projects, overflow and specialist one-offs; permanent hires suit ongoing work and team continuity. Many editorial assistants on Creativepool are open to both - each profile states availability and the type of work they take.

03How do I choose the right editorial assistant?

Shortlist on portfolio relevance first, then check recent activity, client recommendations and ratings. Brief two or three candidates with the same outline so you can compare approach, timeline and rate fairly.

04How are editorial assistants ranked on this page?

By a weekly-refreshed composite of editorial standing, portfolio depth, engagement, client recommendations and recent activity - so active, well-regarded editorial assistants appear first.

05How do I get listed as an editorial assistant?

Create a Creativepool profile, set your role and availability, and upload your strongest work. Listings are free; an active, complete profile with client recommendations ranks higher.
