About Comparesoft

Comparesoft is the UK’s first AI-powered B2B software marketplace. Our platform is trusted by global organisations such as KPMG, GE, Volvo, Siemens, Invesco, and Barclays, as well as over 19,000 businesses globally, to find and compare B2B software with confidence.

We are strengthening our position in the IT software markets, deepening our coverage across IT Asset Management, Software Asset Management, IT Service Management, and IT Helpdesk. Our focus is on building clarity and trust in how complex IT software decisions are made—using AI where it adds value, and human judgement where it matters most.

We’re looking for a Senior IT Content Writer who can explain complex IT topics clearly, accurately, and usefully.

This is a writing-first role. Your primary responsibility is to produce authoritative content across IT Asset Management (ITAM), Software Asset Management (SAM), IT Service Management (ITSM), and IT Helpdesk, and to represent that thinking publicly through LinkedIn and specialist IT publications.

We actively encourage the use of AI tools to work faster, but this role relies on human judgement: deciding what matters, how ideas should be framed, and how to communicate with credibility. AI supports the workflow; it does not replace editorial thinking.

• Write high-quality, accurate, and practical content on ITAM, SAM, ITSM, and IT Helpdesk
• Translate complex IT concepts into clear guidance for IT managers and service leaders
• Use AI tools to assist research and drafting while applying human judgement to final output
• Maintain strong editorial standards and consistency across all content

• Engage with the IT community on LinkedIn by liking, commenting, and contributing thoughtfully to discussions
• Publish useful and relevant LinkedIn content that reflects real IT challenges
• Build a following of IT professionals who recognise Comparesoft as a credible and trustworthy voice

• Contribute articles and expert commentary to specialist IT publications
• Help ensure Comparesoft is represented accurately and thoughtfully in industry conversations
• Collaborate internally to align content with real software-buyer questions

• Writing and editing long-form content across ITAM, SAM, ITSM, and IT Helpdesk
• Using AI tools to accelerate research and drafting, followed by careful human editing
• Reviewing reader behaviour, especially time spent on content, to improve clarity and depth
• Engaging with IT professionals on LinkedIn through comments and discussion
• Publishing thoughtful LinkedIn posts based on real-world IT challenges
• Collaborating with product and content teams to align writing with buyer intent
• Improving existing content rather than chasing volume
• Most of your time is spent writing, thinking, and refining quality.

Within the first 6 months, success in this role is measured primarily by:

• Time spent by readers on your content
• Evidence that IT professionals are reading, scrolling, and engaging deeply
• Content that holds attention because it is clear, relevant, and genuinely useful
• Signs that readers return to Comparesoft content because they trust it

• 7+ years of experience writing content for IT, SaaS, or B2B technology audiences
• Strong understanding of at least one of: ITAM, SAM, ITSM, or IT Helpdesk (or the ability to learn quickly)
• Proven ability to explain technical topics clearly without oversimplifying or adding fluff
• Comfortable using AI tools to increase speed while maintaining editorial quality
• Confident engaging publicly with IT professionals on LinkedIn
• Experience contributing to specialist or trade publications is a plus

• You care deeply about clarity, accuracy, and usefulness
• You think before you write and edit rigorously
• You work independently and take ownership of your output
• You’re thoughtful, curious, and direct in how you communicate
• You value substance over buzzwords

Your career is important to both you and us. This role is designed to give you ownership, visibility, and the opportunity to do meaningful work.

You’ll define how Comparesoft communicates with IT professionals across content and social channels establishing a clear, credible voice and building authority in IT Asset Management, Software Asset Management, IT Service Management, and IT Helpdesk.

You’ll work closely with our Product Architect, giving you direct exposure to our content strategy and decision-making.

We use Trello, Ahrefs, Google Analytics, Mouseflow, ChatGPT, Gemini, and other tools to plan and evaluate content.

A dedicated budget supports ongoing training and development.

We use A/B testing and structured experimentation to improve effectiveness.

You’ll contribute to the UK’s first AI-driven recommendation engine for B2B software.

We are an equal-opportunity employer and value diversity and inclusivity. We do not discriminate based on gender, race, age, sexual orientation, disability, religion, or any other protected characteristic.
