• Post-secondary education in information technology specializing in computers, networking or information systems. Preference will be given to those in the publishing/media industry.
• Strong analytical, problem-solving and project management capabilities.
• Excellent interpersonal skills with the ability to relate to all users.
• The ability to meet deadlines in a fast-paced environment.
• Results-oriented, can-do attitude.
• Penchant for learning quickly and eye for detail.

Proofreading Quarterback

Annex Business Media is looking for a professional grade proofreader to join our lively magazine production team, and maybe that’s you. If you love wordplay, live for grammar, and get steamed over inconsistent style and typos, you are exactly who we’re looking for.

Our current proofreader is moving into a magazine editorial role, creating an opportunity for someone new to join the crew. Our proofreader is the linchpin between editorial and production, working seamlessly with both teams to ensure the highest quality business-to-business products on the market. You would also work with the editorial director and magazine editors on continuing education, improving writing quality, streamlining the production process and generally sharing your great ideas on how we can be better.

You have a university degree that makes sense for this role (you’re probably not an engineer), have experience working with words, preferably in a publishing environment, a firm grasp of CP style, and a proven passion for grammar and all things concerning the great English language. You juggle multiple deadlines and conflicting priorities with ease, all the while having a little fun. A love of puns is an asset, but not required.

This is a hands-on role based in our Simcoe office. As you would expect from a market innovator like Annex Business Media, we offer a progressive range of benefits, a great office environment, training, and opportunities for growth.

Annex Business Media is Canada’s largest and fastest-growing privately-held B2B publisher, with over 40 brands and a wide array of print, digital and face-to-face products. Please send a cover letter and resumé by March 14, 2014 to Michelle Snyder, msnyder@annexweb.com.
