Great that you're thinking about a career with BSI!

We currently have an exciting opportunity within our Content Solutions department, working as an Editorial Assistant within the Content Development team in Chiswick, West London.

The role is a 12-month maternity cover, and we can offer flexible working arrangements.

Purpose of the Position

This role supports the Content Development team to deliver a growing portfolio of standardization projects that provide tailored solutions for clients from a diverse range of market sectors. This typically involves supporting the drafting, development, and publication of national standards (e.g. British Standards) and client-sponsored standards (e.g. PASs, Flexes, and private standards). It also includes supporting the delivery of other client-sponsored standardization services such as programmes, standards mapping, and scoping exercises.

This role will suit candidates with a proven ability to provide high-quality and timely editorial, logistical and administrative support for multiple projects. To be successful in this role you’ll have strong planning, organisation, and time management skills, a high level of written and spoken English, attention to detail, and excellent Word processing and other IT skills.

You’ll have regular interaction and engagement with team members as well as a variety of industry experts, so excellent communication is also essential. You’ll be confident in working with multiple team members across multiple projects in a dynamic and driven service delivery function.

This role is perfect for someone who has proved themselves extremely organised and effective at communicating and is interested in either starting or furthering their career in a publishing or knowledge solutions environment.
