Innovation Manager - Legal Sector - 12 Month FTC - London - >90k

Are you fascinated by how technology is changing the legal world? Do you love to roll up your sleeves, explore new ideas, and make things happen? My client, a leading international law firm, is looking for a proactive Innovation Manager to join their forward-thinking team for a 12-month fixed-term contract.

This isn't about sitting back and watching trends; it's about being at the heart of exciting projects that genuinely impact how legal advice is delivered. You'd be instrumental in promoting smart tech, developing their firm-wide innovation strategy, and even helping their clients embrace cutting-edge solutions.

What They're Looking For You To Do:

Think of yourself as a key player in bringing innovative ideas to life. You'd be:

• Championing Legal Tech: Keeping their firm's tech toolkit fresh, researching new tools, building relationships with vendors, and making sure their lawyers are well-equipped and trained.
• Leading the AI Charge: Playing a pivotal role in assessing, planning, and rolling out generative AI tools across the firm. This means everything from suitability assessments to training and defining success!
• Spotting What's Next: Staying on top of emerging technologies and trends in legal innovation, attending demos, and bringing fresh insights back to the team.
• Client-Focused Innovation: Developing and delivering exciting programs for their clients, like their popular Client Innovation Network.
• Driving Change: Collaborating with various teams across the firm – from legal practice groups to other business services – to foster a culture of continuous improvement and smart collaboration.

Who They're Looking For:

They're ideally seeking someone who has spent 3+ years working in a professional services environment, ideally a law firm, with a genuine passion for legal innovation and technology.

You should be:

• A digital and tech enthusiast, comfortable with tools like Power BI and Power Automate.
• Someone with strong interpersonal skills – you enjoy building relationships, presenting ideas clearly, and influencing others.
• Organised and detail-oriented, able to juggle multiple tasks and keep a cool head when things get busy.
• A true team player who's collaborative, supportive, and not afraid to challenge the status quo or suggest new approaches.
• Committed to high standards of quality and professionalism in everything you do.

Why Join This Client?

This is a fantastic opportunity to make a tangible impact in a firm renowned for its excellence and innovative approach. You'd be part of a supportive, open, and friendly environment where every contribution is valued, and continuous learning is encouraged. They pride themselves on their diverse thinking and their commitment to a healthy work/life balance.

This is a 12-month fixed-term contract with a salary of up to £90,000.

Ready to Apply?

Their recruitment process typically involves a two-stage interview. You'd meet with a Senior Innovation Manager and a member of their Recruitment team for the first chat, followed by a practical assessment and a second interview if you're shortlisted.

They welcome applications from all backgrounds and are committed to making their recruitment processes as inclusive and barrier-free as possible. If you require any adjustments, please let me know.

If you're excited by the prospect of driving innovation and being a part of their future, I'd love to hear from you! Apply directly here, or pop over your CV to me [e-mail]
