Job description
The role involves writing legal copy that is specific to our clients’ brand personalities and the services they offer. You will have to structure and edit your content so it appeals not only to search but also (and perhaps most importantly) to the people who will be reading it; all to help our clients generate online enquiries!

- Writing content on behalf of our clients in the legal sector to specified deadlines, with correct (but not extensive) legal analysis and clear writing style
- Writing user-friendly content, after all, we are not writing for other lawyers, we are writing for their clients
- Covering a wide range of topics and different jurisdictions, as we have clients in Scotland, England, Ireland and even Australia
- Learning and implementing SEO tactics to your writing
- Self-management of priorities and workload
- Communicating with the Moore Legal Technology content team to receive, and respond to, feedback on work done
Required skills and approach
Having the right attitude will be vital in this role. We are looking for individuals who can work with us to help both our customers’ businesses and our own business grow.
The skills below are desirable but not essential. While all of the following can be learned, it is of critical importance that you are ambitious and eager to deliver content of a high standard:
- Broad knowledge of the law and legal writing
- Ability to clearly and concisely analyse and write about legal issues and concepts in a logical fashion
- Excellent grammar, spelling and general editorial skills
- Good attention to detail
- Able to work to tight deadlines
- IT literate

We look forward to speaking to you soon…
