Assistant Editor, Inklore - (Open to remote)

Legora AB

<div><h1 class="jobSectionHeader">About Us</h1> 
Legora is on a mission: to redefine how legal work gets done. From the very start we have been very clear about the fact that we are not building a solution for lawyers, we are building it with them, because it is the only way to make sure it gets done the right way; working side-by-side every step of the way.
Our AI-native workspace empowers legal professionals not just to work faster - but to ask better questions, unlock new insights. Every day, we push the boundaries of legal tech to make complex processes smarter, faster, and more human. From thousands of documents analysed in minutes to intelligent workflows designed in collaboration with leading practices, we&rsquo;re turning possibility into reality.
Today we are trusted by global firms like Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Bird &amp; Bird and Linklaters in over 40 countries, but we have no plans on stopping here. We ship fast, we iterate effectively, and we scale rapidly - not by accident, but by design.
When you join Legora, you become part of a team that believes &quot;good enough&quot; isn&rsquo;t good enough and that the way to win is together, by empowering lawyers to do their best work with technology that truly understands them. If you&rsquo;re excited by building from first principles, working with exceptional people, and accelerating change in a high-stakes, high-impact domain&mdash;then this is the moment and the place.<h2 class="jobSectionHeader">

The Role</h2>
We&rsquo;re seeking an Editorial Manager to build the Legora narrative and create the content - not just written - that will build Legora&rsquo;s social presence into a category-defining growth engine.
Your role will see you develop Legora&rsquo;s editorial voice, closely tied to our identity and business goals, to craft an editorial strategy that builds the Legora brand and delivers against our objectives.
You&rsquo;ll be responsible for determining what we talk about, what we say, who says it, when and how - and what we don&rsquo;t. You&rsquo;ll own our organic strategy, content creation pipelines and systems, and determine our editorial cadence and define what gets published across which channels. You will be responsible for determining how best to engage our key audiences on the topics that matter to them - and us - and for developing Legora&rsquo;s position as an industry leader when it comes to wider questions around the future of the legal profession and its use of AI.
Your mandate is simple:
Make Legora the most trusted, distinctive, and followed voice in AI for legal work.
Reporting to the VP Communications, you&rsquo;ll partner across Marketing, Product, GTM, Legal, and Leadership to translate what we&rsquo;re building &mdash; and why it matters &mdash; into content that&rsquo;s precise, credible, and impossible to ignore.<h2 class="jobSectionHeader">

Track performance with a metrics framework (growth, engagement, click-through, pipeline influence where measurable).</li><li>

Maintain a content library and reuse system to compound output without sacrificing quality.</li></ul><h2 class="jobSectionHeader">
Who You Are</h2>
You understand the law, AI and business. You understand what our customers require - the questions that concern them, the issues occupying the sectors and how Legora can add value to existing conversations. You understand the difference between &lsquo;content&rsquo; and &lsquo;compelling editorial&rsquo;. You can produce high-quality, interesting, relevant copy rapidly and to-deadline. You have experience helping others bring their ideas to life through top-class narrative development and storytelling. You&rsquo;re obsessed with craft and distribution. You understand that great social content is truth + taste + repetition &mdash; and you know how to build systems that produce consistently high signal. You&rsquo;re equal parts storyteller and operator: fast, structured, and relentlessly iterative.
You are:<ul><li>
A sharp writer with strong judgment and a distinct sense of voice.</li><li>
Fluent in platform mechanics and what earns attention (without chasing trends blindly).</li><li>
Comfortable working with technical and non-technical teams to extract the real story.</li><li>
Comfortable drawing out narratives and insights from individuals and systems alike</li><li>
Energised by fast feedback loops and shipping content continuously.</li></ul>
Most importantly:
You care about credibility. You want to build a brand people trust.<h2 class="jobSectionHeader">
What We&rsquo;re Looking For</h2><ul><li>
Excellent writing, editing, and narrative skills.</li><li>
Fluent English communication skills.</li><li>
Good understanding of current issues and concerns in and around AI, business and law</li><li>
Experience building repeatable content systems (calendars, templates, pipelines, feedback loops). 4&ndash;6+ years experience in social media, digital journalism, brand editorial, or community roles in high-growth environments. Demonstrated ability to grow an audience with high-quality organic content. Analytical mindset: you measure, learn, and iterate quickly.</li><li>
Excellent communication and cross-functional collaboration skills.</li><li>
Some experience of a fast-growing startup environment</li></ul><h2 class="jobSectionHeader">
Why This Role Matters</h2>
Social will be one of Legora&rsquo;s highest-leverage growth channels. In a category full of noise, we win by being precise, useful, and unmistakably different. The content you create will shape how the market understands AI for legal work &mdash; and why Legora leads it.
If we succeed, it will be because we built a brand that compounds: a voice that&rsquo;s trusted, a narrative that&rsquo;s clear, and a social engine that turns product truth into category momentum.

At Legora, we believe great teams are built on diversity of thought and experience. We&rsquo;re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and committed to creating an inclusive, high-performance culture where everyone can do their best work.
