  Writer-placement services

Abelard Consulting's recruitment division specialises in the placing of technical writers (also known as technical authors or technical communicators). Our service is unique in a number of ways:

• First, our consultants are themselves experienced technical writers and so are especially adept at accurately profiling job roles.
• Second, through our own longstanding documentation consultancy work we have built up a vast network of technical writers.
• Third, our peer-to-peer assessment methodology — assessment of applicants by practising technical writers — gives us the edge in filtering applicants, that is, in seeing quickly who really does fit a particular role.

Our approach is designed to give you, the client, a short-list that is the cream of the available talent.

  Writing, editing & indexing

Abelard Consulting provides the full spectrum of documentation services: from editing a single document written by others to managing fully out-sourced project teams writing user documentation of many types, in many media, and in many languages.

Our services include:

• fully managed out-sourced documentation projects
• producing end-user documentation (such as user guides, online help and instructional movies)
• technical and general editing (including copy-edit, structural edit and user-acceptance edit)
• indexing: back-of-book and online
• editing of scientific papers
• creating style guides and subject-specific thesauri
• localisation and translation management
• technical illustration
• document conversion (such as Word-to-FrameMaker)
