Lawgent: Founding Editor & Partnerships Lead, Law Magazine
About this role
Lawgent is launching Law Magazine, a publication about the people, ideas and technology shaping the legal world. We are looking for a founding editor who can both tell strong stories and build the partnerships that make the magazine grow.
What you will do
Build Law Magazine from the ground up: set the editorial direction, the format and the publishing rhythm.
Write features, interviews and profiles of lawyers, law firms, legal tech founders and industry leaders.
Shoot your own photography: portraits, events and editorial images. A strong visual eye is central to this role.
Partnerships (core part of the role): find and secure sponsors, advertisers and partners such as law firms, legal tech companies, universities and associations.
Grow the readership through social media, newsletters and the network you build.
Who you are
A journalist, writer or editor with a published portfolio.
Passionate about photography, with images that show it.
Comfortable approaching decision-makers and turning a conversation into a partnership.
Self-driven and entrepreneurial; you want to build something, not just fill a position.
Interest in law, business or technology is a strong plus. A legal background is not required.
Excellent written English. Additional languages are a plus.
Compensation
This is a performance-based role. Your compensation comes from the partnerships and sponsorship revenue you bring in, plus the opportunity to grow into a long-term leading role as the magazine scales.
What we offer
Full creative ownership of a new publication from day one.
Direct access to Lawgent's network across the legal sector.
Flexible, fully remote work.
A front-row seat in a fast-growing legal tech group.
