About me

Dear sir/madam

Please find attached my CV in relation to the vacancy for a freelance subeditor.

I am a meticulous layout subeditor, and have spent 13 years in the business-to-business publishing sector. For the last 7 years, I have subedited often complex news and feature stories relating to energy and petrochemical trading and pricing, published both online in real time and as PDFs (using InDesign, InCopy, Word and the in-house content management system). As well as rewriting stories and creating standfirsts as part of required work, I have also written a couple of news stories for ICIS Energy, which I found very satisfying.

As part of a global team, I have consistently maintained high standards whilst keeping to tight deadlines and adjusting quickly to changing priorities and workflow demands.

I believe my conscientious nature and flexible, open attitude would be a great asset to the company.

I hope that you will consider my application favourably and that I hear from you soon.

Yours faithfully

Robert Evers
