We are seeking an author with strong subject-matter expertise in Florida wills & trusts law to author comprehensive course materials designed to assist individuals preparing to take the exam. We are considering a full-time or part-time hire on a limited, contract basis, with a view toward possible future work at the project’s conclusion. As an author on the bar review project, you’ll work collaboratively with Quimbee’s editorial team to ensure that your work is the best it possibly can be. You’ll master Quimbee’s editorial and stylistic requirements to ensure that Quimbee delivers quality content to students on time, every time.
