Sydney, Melbourne, Auckland or Wellington | Hybrid workingAbout the Role

This is a commercially focused content development role working across one of the most important and highest revenue-generating portfolios at LexisNexis — Primary Law (cases and legislation) across Australia and New Zealand.

You won’t be writing or editing content. Instead, you’ll take a strategic, portfolio-wide view to identify gaps, spot opportunities, and bring new content ideas to life.

Working end-to-end, you’ll develop proposals, build business cases, and project manage new products through to publication and delivery — partnering closely with editorial, product, sales and marketing teams.

This is ideal for someone who enjoys combining commercial thinking, project management, and content strategy in a highly collaborative environment.

What You’ll Be Doing
  • Review the existing Primary Law portfolio to identify gaps, trends, and growth opportunities

  • Develop proposals for new content initiatives, products, or enhancements

  • Build commercially sound business cases (including ROI, risk, and market opportunity)

  • Lead projects end-to-end — from concept through to publication and delivery

  • Work cross-functionally with editorial, product, sales, and marketing teams

  • Engage with external authors, partners, and licensing opportunities where relevant

  • Contribute to the ongoing growth and performance of a key revenue-generating portfolio

About the Content

You’ll be working across a broad, high-impact content portfolio, including:

  • Cases and Legislation (Primary Law)

  • Books, journals, newsletters, and licensed content

  • All legal practice areas across Australia and New Zealand

  • A wide customer audience — from lawyers and firms to academics and practitioners

What We’re Looking For
  • Experience in content development, publishing, legal, or a related professional environment

  • Strong commercial mindset — able to assess opportunities and prioritise effectively

  • Proven project management skills with the ability to drive initiatives end-to-end

  • Confident stakeholder engagement skills across multiple teams

  • Ability to think strategically across a portfolio, not just individual products

  • Legal industry exposure is helpful but not essential

Why Join LexisNexis?
  • Work on strategically important, market-leading legal content

  • High visibility role with real commercial impact

  • Collaborative, cross-functional environment

  • Strong focus on career development and growth

  • Flexible hybrid working (AU or NZ locations)

  • Additional annual leave options

  • Health and wellbeing support, including EAP

  • Insurance benefits and income protection

  • Learning and development opportunities

  • Retail discounts and wellbeing programs

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene

Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
