Assist in coordinating the flow of articles and issues through various stages of the production process.
Perform quality checks on content (e.g., formatting, completeness, adherence to style requirements) and flag inconsistencies for review by senior staff.
Support communication with authors, editorial offices, vendors, and volunteers regarding production status, missing items, and routine production inquiries.
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.
Prepare reports and updates for internal stakeholders on production status and workflow metrics.
