Senior Writer/Editor - Us Marshals Service
CurrentPrimarily responsible for the organization’s production of its annual report and five-year strategic plan, I plan, draft, edit, and clarify division and program inputs for a diverse audience. I execute editorial discretion with regard to the importance and sensitivity of the material, ensuring appropriate tone and emphasis for the audience. I also consult with subject-matter experts and leadership to expand and condensed content based on research and program knowledge. I work closely with a graphic designer to plan and incorporate photos, graphics, and metrics. I advise and contribute to the development of goals, objectives, and strategies, facilitating working sessions to reach a consensus in a team environment. I also develop surveys, memos, and email communications. I work with subject-matter experts and staff to research, write, and edit a variety of informational products, including quarterly performance review submissions, budget submissions, annual performance reports, department-level strategic objectives, risk profiles, and more. I review work for quality, consistency, and compliance with established standards of style, format, and content. I edit text for grammatical correctness, clarity, tone, appropriate reading level, and consistency with pertinent program objectives and agency publication requirements.
