Summary
I am a disabled writer, and I’m seeking a part-time (up to 30 hours) person who will type accurately at my dictation, and correct the work with precision as my work will often appear in newspapers, books, and magazines. Due to being totally blind I need assistance in writing my books, emails and articles relating to my work. You will have to be proficient with the English language and know about the rules of grammar and punctuation. The applicant must be 25 or over and have a clean driving license and be flexible in their times of work, sometimes arriving early, or later if required.
Must be able to drive to appointments for work related purposes, such as for interviews or meetings.
You must be computer literate and have good social media and IT skills. I may need to use ZOOM, TEAMS, and other similar platforms, particularly those within university settings for lectures etc. I will need the applicant to deal with sending out books etc for posting as well as filing all necessary documents safely for tax returns etc.
You will help me prepare texts, articles, lectures, and books. It would also be great if the applicant could be a sounding board to bounce ideas around with. It is essential that the applicant should be clearly spoken, and have a warm personality.
Due to my total blindness and partial deafness, when working on ZOOM etc, it would be helpful to have someone who can repeat what is being said by the other participants if required.
The applicant must be a non-smoker.
Thank you for your application - Dr Lin Berwick MBE
