About IR magazine

How to submit content

While our team currently works with a dozen regular contributors, we are always looking for new ideas and frequently publish bylined submissions from IROs and other industry experts.

Bylines are meant to offer readers an informed opinion on a current topic related to their role and run 450 words in length.

Our publication date is always the end of the month so it's best to submit byline suggestions at the beginning of the month.

Use our contact us form to reach our editors.
