This role will also be central to ensuring the smooth operation of the editorial team, owning and overseeing workflow allocation and prioritization.

The Editorial Manager will bring creative vision and rigorous editorial discipline to Dechert's global communications. A natural storyteller with an instinct for what makes people pay attention, this person is equally comfortable rolling up their sleeves to proofread, edit, and polish work to the highest standard. The Editorial Manager will help ensure that everything the team produces is impactful, persuasive and in the Dechert voice.

Job Description

Serve as a senior writer and editor across a full spectrum of content formats, including thought leadership, client communications, web announcements, social media posts, video and podcast scripts, advertisements, and other firm communications.
Act as the team's day-to-day guardian of brand voice and tone, ensuring all content produced is consistent, on-brand, and reflective of Dechert's identity across all channels and formats.
Ensure that the team consistently adheres to the Dechert writing style guide.
Proofread, copyedit and edit work produced by partners and colleagues across the firm, ensuring technical accuracy, adherence to the firm's style guide, grammatical correctness and an absence of errors.
Develop and champion thought-provoking, audience-first content that brings fresh perspectives and creative energy to communications across all channels and aligned to the communication goals of different channels.
Collaborate closely with attorneys, practice group leaders and marketing colleagues to surface the firm's best stories and translate complex legal work into compelling, accessible and persuasive content.
Communicate clearly and diplomatically with stakeholders across the firm regarding editorial changes and content standards, building productive working relationships that support the firm's strategic goals.
Own the triage and routing of incoming content requests— assessing, prioritizing, and directing assignments across the team to ensure workload is distributed equitably, tasks are tiered appropriately by complexity and seniority, and all output meets the team's quality standards.
Monitor content across channels and formats for consistency, accuracy and brand alignment, identifying opportunities to raise quality and deepen impact over time.
Perform other related duties as assigned.

Essential Knowledge, Skills and Abilities:

7+ years of experience in a writing and editorial role, with exceptional writing and editing skills across a wide range of content types and formats, including thought leadership, digital and social content, video scripts, podcasts, advertising copy and web announcements. Experience writing for web and SEO/GEO best practices knowledge a plus.
A natural, confident storyteller, able to conceptualize fresh, compelling ways to communicate.
Deep command of editorial technique: proofreading, copyediting, grammar, style and rigorous adherence to a corporate style guide.
Strong instinct for brand voice and tone, with demonstrated experience applying and enforcing brand standards consistently across teams and content channels.
Outstanding written and spoken English, with the confidence to sign off on final drafts, work directly with partners and be accountable for delivering the highest standard of work.
Resourcefulness and strong project management instincts, with the ability to handle multiple projects simultaneously, meet deadlines and work well under pressure.
Maturity and sound judgment in handling sensitive, confidential or high-stakes matters within a professional services environment.
Enthusiastic team collaborator who thrives in a dynamic environment and contributes positively to team culture.
Experience working in a law firm, professional services organization or similarly complex institutional environment preferred.
Knowledge of firm operations, policies, and procedures.
Flexibility to adjust hours to meet operating needs.
