Business services

I recognise that clear, concise documents play a critical role in achieving your business objectives. Ensure that your corporate communications, including technical documentation, annual reports, and website content, are polished and professional.

The way a document is written can be as important as its content. I have experience in both the business and academic worlds. This can be particularly useful if you are a technical start-up or university spin-out and need to write for both audiences.

Services offered

  • Developmental editing: Using a strategic approach to refine and enhance written content with a focus on structure, clarity, and the effectiveness of the message for the expected readership.

  • Copyediting: Reviewing and improving written material to ensure it is clear, correct, concise, and consistent. The focus is on polishing the text to address grammar, punctuation, spelling, and syntax, while adhering to the relevant style guide.

  • Proofreading: A final check to identify and correct typographical errors and formatting issues, and to check that cross-references and links are correct.

”As someone who has lived in the US for almost a decade, I thought I was pretty adept at switching between British and American English. However, Eleanor's help at identifying and correcting inconsistencies in my usage was invaluable. Her attention to detail in proofreading is really thorough and her stylistic recommendations are well thought out and helpful.”
