Work Experience
1995 - 1997
Library AssistantI gained experience of working in a number of libraries, both computerised and non-computerised, within the Sevenoaks and Tunbridge Wells groups. At first this work was part-time, but became full-time and ended with promotion to Senior Library Assistant at Edenbridge library, which was also a secondment. This work gave me experience of stock ordering, merchandise sales, training and supervision of staff, banking and manning the enquiry desk, as well as day-to-day library duties.
1997 - 2006
Managing EditorMy work for this expanding company involved many aspects of academic and school-book production, undertaken for several major publishers. This included page make-up using QuarkXpress 6.52, copyediting and proofreading. I project-managed up to twenty titles at any time, liaising with authors, publishers and artists and co-ordinating members of our team, training where necessary.
I worked on a variety of publications, from full-colour GCSE-level schoolbooks to multi-author academic works.
2006 - Current
Freelance Copyeditor and ProofreaderUtilising the ten years’ experience I gained at GreenGate, I now work in a freelance capacity as an editor and proofreader on a range of publications, from academic and educational textbooks to online learning materials for the NHS.
Clients include Routledge, the House of Lords, Line Communications, Florence Production, Macmillan, GreenGate Publishing Services, Search Press, City & Guilds, Dark Moon, John Blake Publishing, Ebury Press, Integra, HarperCollins and e-LfH.

For the last year Anna has been contributing to “my English”, if I may say so
I’ve gained confidence in my ability to speak English, she helps me sound more natural reducing my accent.
Thank you, Anna
