Italian General Editor (Freelance, Contract)
Omniscient Digital is an organic growth agency that partners with ambitious B2B SaaS companies like SAP, Adobe, Loom, and Hotjar to turn SEO and content into growth engines.
About This Role
Omniscient Digital is growing, and we’re looking for a meticulous Italian-speaking freelance editor to join our editorial team. This is a freelance role focused on editing long-form articles, blogs, and SEO content written in fluent Italian.
You must be fully fluent in Italian and able to edit for grammar, tone, clarity, and voice at a native or near-native level.
If you’re an experienced editor who enjoys turning complex topics into clear, readable content and thrives in an independent, detail-oriented work environment, we’d love to hear from you. The application passcode is Parolista.
Please note: We do not work with editors or writers who subcontract their work.
Responsibilities
Edit long-form and marketing content in Italian to ensure natural, fluent, and professional copy, tailored to B2B and technical audiences.
Ensure grammatical accuracy and editorial consistency, aligned with the client’s tone, voice, formatting, and our internal style guide.
Provide constructive feedback to writers, supporting them in improving clarity, structure, and storytelling across drafts.
Fact-check sources, statistics, and links to ensure all information is accurate, credible, and current.
Apply SEO best practices such as effective keyword placement, headline optimization, and meta formatting—without sacrificing readability or tone.
Meet fast-paced deadlines (usually within 24–48 hours) while juggling multiple projects and maintaining high editorial standards.
Communicate proactively with the editorial lead on deadlines, workload, and blockers.
Use our editorial and client-specific style guides to ensure alignment across all published work.
Who You Are
You’re fluent in Italian, with native or near-native fluency in writing and editing.
You have a strong grasp of Italian grammar, syntax, and language conventions and can confidently edit for tone and clarity.
You have 2+ years of experience editing B2B, SaaS, or technical/SEO content for professional audiences.
You are detail-obsessed and polish every sentence for precision and alignment with voice and strategy.
You seek feedback and continually aim to improve your craft.
You’re reliable with deadlines and communicate proactively if priorities shift.
You love digging into new topics, researching unfamiliar concepts, and simplifying complexity.
You bring structure and efficiency to your editing process, and you’re comfortable adapting to evolving needs.
You’re self-directed and comfortable working remotely, asking for input when needed.
A degree in journalism, Italian studies, linguistics, marketing, or a related field is preferred but not required.
Portfolio Requirement
Please submit 3–5 samples of content you’ve edited or written in Italian. At least two should focus on B2B, SaaS, or technical subject matter. Older samples are acceptable if paired with more recent work.
