Help facilitate the delivery and organization of final publication assets (e.g., PDFs, XML metadata, multimedia files).
Maintain documentation to ensure accurate records of production activity.
Provide administrative and logistical support for process improvements and special projects.
Support adherence to editorial guidelines and house style by applying checklists and standardized procedures.
