About In-House Connect

In-House Connect (IHC) is the largest free community for in-house legal professionals, with 40,000+ subscribers and a growing national presence through webinars, networking mixers, in-person CLEs, and sponsored programming. We connect in-house counsel with each other and with the law firms and legal vendors that serve them — all at no cost to in-house teams.

We’re launching a Resource Center — a curated content hub that will become the go-to destination for in-house counsel looking for practical insights, expert perspectives, and useful tools. This role will help build it from the ground up.

The Role

This is a content-first role at a community-driven organization. You’ll be the editorial voice behind the IHC Resource Center — writing original articles, curating expert contributions, producing Q&As with in-house leaders and law firm partners, developing practical guides, and managing sponsored content that feels valuable rather than promotional. You’re not writing in a vacuum; everything you create serves a community of 40,000+ legal professionals who rely on IHC for resources they can’t get anywhere else.

You’ll work directly with the CEO to shape the editorial direction and content strategy. This is a build-from-scratch opportunity — you’ll define the voice, set the publishing cadence, and create the content categories that make the Resource Center essential reading for in-house teams.

What You’ll Own

Member Interviews & Profiles

       Interview in-house counsel, GCs, and legal ops leaders across industries to capture their stories, challenges, and career insights

       Produce compelling Q&A-style features and written profiles that spotlight members of the IHC community

       Build and maintain a pipeline of interview subjects — proactively identifying interesting voices in the community, not waiting for them to come to you

Case Studies

       Develop case studies that showcase how in-house teams are solving real problems — legal ops transformations, technology implementations, outside counsel management, compliance programs

       Work with sponsors to produce co-branded case studies that highlight their solutions in action while delivering genuine value to readers

       Ensure case studies are practical and specific, not generic marketing fluff — our audience wants to learn what actually worked and what didn’t

Event Recaps

       Attend (virtually or in person) IHC webinars, CLEs, and networking mixers and produce written recaps that capture key takeaways, themes, and highlights

       Turn event content into evergreen resources — a 60-minute webinar becomes a digestible article, a CLE panel becomes actionable bullet points

       Photograph or coordinate visuals from in-person events for use in recaps and social promotion

Sponsor Highlights

       Create sponsor spotlight content that introduces our audience to the law firms, legal tech companies, and vendors supporting the IHC community

       Produce thought leadership pieces, product features, and expert Q&As in collaboration with sponsors — content that feels native and valuable, not like an ad

       Work with the sponsorship team to understand sponsor objectives and translate them into content our audience will actually engage with

News, Reminders & Product Announcements

       Write timely updates about IHC programming — upcoming webinars, new mixer dates, CLE schedules, Resource Center launches, and community milestones

       Cover relevant legal industry news and trends that matter to in-house teams, with IHC’s practical, no-jargon voice

       Draft announcements for new IHC products, features, and partnerships

       Contribute to newsletter content that drives traffic to the Resource Center and keeps 40,000+ subscribers engaged

Editorial Strategy & Operations

       Define and maintain the editorial calendar — balancing member content, sponsor content, event recaps, and timely news

       Establish the Resource Center’s voice and style guide, consistent with IHC’s brand (approachable, practical, community-first)

       Track content performance — what’s getting read, shared, and driving engagement — and adjust accordingly

       Repurpose content across channels: webinar recaps into articles, member interviews into social posts, case studies into newsletter features

What We’re Looking For

       3–7 years of experience in journalism, content writing, editorial, or content marketing — ideally covering legal, business, compliance, or professional services

       Strong interviewing skills — you can get a busy GC to open up in a 20-minute call and turn that into a compelling piece

       Excellent writing and editing. You can take a dense legal topic and make it readable, useful, and interesting to a busy in-house counsel who has 5 minutes between meetings

       Experience producing case studies, profiles, or feature content — not just blog posts or news briefs

       Comfort with sponsored content. You understand that sponsor-funded content can be valuable to readers when done right, and you know how to strike that balance

       Editorial judgment — you know what’s worth covering, what angle to take, and how to make a topic feel timely and relevant

       Self-starter who can build an editorial operation from scratch without needing a detailed playbook

       Familiarity with CMS platforms, SEO basics, email marketing tools, and content analytics

       Legal industry experience is a strong plus but not required — curiosity about the legal world and the ability to learn quickly matter more

Compensation

$60,000–$80,000 annually depending on experience. This is a fully remote, 1099 contractor position.
