Background 

Democracy Reporting International (DRI) is a non-partisan, independent, not-for-profit organisation registered in Berlin. DRI promotes political participation of citizens, accountability of state bodies, and the development of democratic institutions worldwide. 

DRI produces a substantial volume of written outputs in English: research reports, policy briefing papers, factsheets, web articles, newsletters, annual reports, and advocacy materials. These are produced across a growing portfolio of active projects spanning the rule of law in the European Union, digital democracy, democratic governance in Ukraine, civil society strengthening in sub-Saharan Africa, and political processes across the MENA region and Southeast Asia. 

DRI’s Communications team (based in Berlin HQ) coordinates the editing and public communications of these materials in close collaboration with programme teams. DRI is building a roster of trusted, experienced English copy editors who can provide fast and high-quality editorial support on a rolling basis. 

Objectives 

DRI is seeking an experienced English-language copy editor to join its pool of external editorial consultants. The copy editor will support DRI’s Communications team and programme staff in producing polished, professionally written publications and materials that meet DRI’s editorial standards and reflect the organisation’s voice and values. 

The copy editor will work under the overall supervision of DRI’s Communications Coordinator and in close cooperation with DRI programme staff, researchers, and authors. 

Services to be Provided 

Core copy-editing duties 

• Copy-edit documents to correct errors in spelling, punctuation, grammar, syntax, and style in accordance with DRI’s house style guide (British English, also informed by The Economist Style Guide). 
• Review and edit content to improve readability, ensuring that complex policy or research ideas are expressed in clear, plain language suited to a broad, international, non-specialist audience. 
• Ensure consistency of terminology, style, and voice across multi-author or multi-section documents. 
• Identify and flag inconsistencies in headings, layout, caption conventions, footnote formatting, and cross-references. 
• Discuss and resolve substantive editorial queries with authors and the Communications Coordinator; provide light guidance on writing style upon request. 
• Proofread final layouts (Word files or PDFs) prior to publication, checking for typographical, formatting, or design-stage errors.  

Enhanced duties 

• Apply inclusive, bias-free language checks in line with DRI’s gender-sensitive language guidelines, ensuring outputs meet international editorial best practice for non-profit and human-rights contexts. 
• Review and refine drafts (some may be AI-assisted) for stylistic coherence, tonal consistency, and adherence to DRI’s voice — flagging any content that is factually uncertain or editorially at odds with DRI’s established standards. 
• Ensure formatting compliance with DRI’s visual identity guidelines where relevant, including heading styles, abbreviation handling, citation formats, and footnote conventions. 
• Advise the Communications team on persistent style issues or common error patterns observed across a batch of documents to support organisational capacity-building. 

Deliverables and Timeline 

The volume and frequency of assignments will vary according to DRI’s editorial pipeline. The copy editor will be engaged on an assignment-by-assignment basis under a framework agreement. Typical deliverables include: 

• Copy-edited documents returned in tracked-changes format (Microsoft Word) or as otherwise agreed with the Communications Coordinator. 
• A brief editorial note for longer assignments (reports, annual publications) summarising key issues, consistent errors, and any unresolved queries flagged for the author. These may also be addressed as in-document commentaries.  
• Final proofreading sign-off for selected publications prior to layout or print, as requested. 

Typical turnaround times: [2–12 working days] depending on document length, complexity, and urgency. Rush assignments may occasionally be required; these will be agreed in advance. 

Required Qualifications and Competencies 

• Native or near-native proficiency in English, with a demonstrable command of British English conventions, spelling, and grammar. 
• Minimum four years of professional copy-editing or proofreading experience, with a proven track record in publications produced for international, non-profit, policy, or journalistic contexts. 
• Thorough familiarity with DRI’s house style (British English, based on The Economist Style Guide); prior experience working with DRI or similar international NGOs is an asset. 
• Experience editing documents in the fields of social sciences, political analysis, law, democratic governance, or human rights. 
• Excellent attention to detail, a strong editorial eye, and the ability to work accurately under time pressure. 
• Ability to work independently, meet tight deadlines, and manage editorial feedback diplomatically with non-native English-speaking authors. 
• Familiarity with inclusive and gender-sensitive language guidelines. 
• Experience reviewing or copy-editing AI-generated text is considered a strong advantage. 
• Individual, registered freelancer or self-employed (required for contracting purposes). 

Recruitment and Onboarding Process 

DRI follows a structured selection process for new editorial consultants, designed to ensure a high standard of quality and a good mutual fit. The process comprises the following steps: 

Application submission 

Interested candidates should submit the following documents by the closing date: 

• A brief cover letter or expression of interest (maximum one page) describing their editorial experience, typical client base, and approach to copy-editing.

Editing test 

Shortlisted candidates will be invited to complete a short, timed editing test (approximately 60 minutes). The test will include a short excerpt typical of DRI’s publications — policy analysis, research findings, or advocacy content. Candidates will be assessed on accuracy, consistency, editorial judgement, and their handling of inclusive language and DRI’s style conventions. 

Interview 

Candidates who pass the editing test will be invited to a short virtual interview (approximately 30 minutes) with DRI Communications staff. The interview will cover editorial approach, experience with similar organisations, availability, and capacity to manage the expected workload.  

Onboarding 

Selected candidates will receive: 

• DRI’s house style guide and relevant formatting guidelines. 
• A brief onboarding call with DRI’s Communications Coordinator to discuss DRI’s editorial workflows, turnaround expectations, and communication norms. 
• A sample DRI publication for familiarisation with the organisation’s register and content. 

The selected candidate(s) will establish a framework contract with DRI and will become part of DRI’s editorial consultant roster. They will be contacted for individual assignments as they arise throughout the year. 

Invoicing and Payments 

The service provider shall invoice DRI upon the completion of each assignment, referencing the relevant purchase order or framework agreement number. Invoices should clearly indicate the document(s) edited, word count or agreed unit of work, and the applicable rate.  

Subcontracting 

The service provider shall not subcontract any part of this engagement without prior written authorisation from DRI, nor cause the contract to be de facto performed by a third party. 

Freelance status 

Applicants must hold a formal freelance status or equivalent business registration that enables them to invoice the organization in accordance with local tax and financial regulations

Strategic Context:

Corus International in LAC is implementing a regional strategy to deepen engagement with the private sector and expand its role as a strategic partner in delivering innovative solutions for health, livelihoods, and technology for development.

Historically, Corus and many development organizations have been perceived primarily as donor-funded implementers. However, the evolving development landscape—combined with growing corporate focus on ESG and shared-value models—has created significant new opportunities for organizations that can deliver integrated, evidence-based solutions at scale.

To support this transition, Corus LAC is transcending their traditional “project-based” visibility model and requires a sohpisticated positioning strategy that helps establish us as a high-value, trusted partner capable of deliver integrated, evidence-based solutions that align with corporate CSR/ESG priorities.

Corus LAC’s 2025 market assessment reveals clear demand from corporate actors seeking partners who can integrate innovation into large-scale programs. This presents a critical opportunity for Corus to strengthen its market position and establish itself as a trusted innovation and solutions partner for the regional private sector.

For this transition, Corus LAC seeks a consultant or consulting firm to design a regional go-to-market and marketpositioning strategy that enables the organization to effectively engage

corporate stakeholders and expand private sector partnerships across Central and South America.

Goal:

The goal of this consultancy is to develop a comprehensive go-to-market and market positioning strategy that enables Corus LAC to effectively engage corporate partners and position itself as a trusted provider of innovative, integrated solutions aligned with corporate ESG and shared-value priorities. The strategy should support Corus intransitioning from a primarily donor-funded implementer to a strategic innovation and solutions partner for the private sector in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Objectives:

This consultancy will deliver a high-impact, practical strategy that enables Corus LAC to:

• Define and validate the regional positioning for Corus International and its brands in LAC: Establish a positioning framework for the overarching Corus brand and its specific innovation and service lines, ensuring relevance for priority private sector audiences in the region.
• Establish a clear and credible value proposition and narrative for LAC audiences: Translate technical solutions into a compelling commercial narrative that aligns with regional corporate priorities, including ESG, SDGs, risk management and shared value, specifically tailored to the LAC business context.
• Produce client-ready messaging and materials: Develop “sales-grade” communication materials that support business development efforts, partnership conversations and rapid penetration in relevant regional social media networks.
• Define a visibility plan and digital penetration plan: Increase presence in relevant corporate spaces across LAC, including but not limited to networks, forums, chambers, and accelerated social media strategies to reach decision makers in Central and South America.
• Align internal stakeholders for regional consistency: Ensure the organization communicates consistenly in line with the Corus Style Guide and can operationalize the strategy across different countries in the LAC region.
• Define metrics and a tracking approach: Establish a framework to measure brand visibility, lead generation and conversion support, specifically focused on the growth of non-traditional partnerships in the region.

Scope of work and methodology:

This consultancy will advise on designing a regional go-to-market and market positioning strategy to position Corus LAC as a trusted provider of innovative, integrated solutions for the private sector in Central and South America. The scope will cover, at minimum, the following workstreams:

1.     Market and Organizational Assessment

• Conduct a rigorous diagnostic of Corus’s current market positioning, competitive landscape, and readiness for private sector engagement in LAC, including review of key internal documents (strategic plans, market assessments, workshop outputs).
  • Analyze alignment between Corus’s global communications standards and their effectiveness with LAC corporate audiences, identifying strategic pivots and changes required for regional relevance.
  • Identify key opportunities and barriers for private sector engagement, including competitive positioning gaps and recommendations for strengthening regional credibility.

2.     Regional Market Positioning

• Define and validate a clear positioning framework for Corus and its service offerings in the LAC private sector landscape, including differentiation from traditional NGOs, consulting firms, and other development actors.
  • Develop compelling value propositions for priority corporate segments that translate Corus’s technical expertise and programmatic experience into market-facing language aligned with corporate priorities (ESG, risk management, sustainability, inclusive growth).
  • Create supporting narrative architecture, including core positioning statements, key differentiators, proof points, and messaging guidelines for LAC audiences.

3.     Target Market Segmentation
