Find an editor or proofreader

Find a professional editor or proofreader who matches your needs.

Welcome to the CIEP Directory of Editorial Services. Here, you can find a professional editor or proofreader to meet your editorial requirements. All listed members have demonstrated that they meet the CIEP’s membership criteria via evidence of their experience and training. Advanced Professional Members – highlighted in blue – have achieved our highest grade of membership. Filter the results to find the right professional editor or proofreader for you by:

1. Typing keywords – such as ‘fiction’, ‘academic’, ‘legal’ – into the ‘Filter results by keyword’ box and clicking on the magnifying glass icon. If you're looking for a specific term that includes more than one word, you can use capitalised 'AND' between each word, eg type 'religious AND studies' if you are searching for someone who works on religious studies text or books.
2. Narrowing down your search results by member type, specialism and associated skills by using the boxes on the right-hand side of the page.
