Skills


  1. Excellent writing and subediting skills to ensure the fws projects sound as forward-thinking, energetic, original, fun and all-encompassing as they are.
  2. Some website & IT skills (not extensive - just enough to work your way around our website).
  3. Ability to work to set own goals and meet them.
  4. Ability to meet deadlines, even when other’s input is required (this doesn’t concern you because you plan for other’s input to take time when you set your original goals).
  5. Ability to work with a number of fws volunteers, including the fws Subediting Manager, to ensure the information detailed in any fws communication is accurate and up to date.
  6. Exceptional eye for detail – don’t tell readers on one webpage that fws is supporting “house-mamas” and then tell them on another webpage that our “house mothers” are important employees.
