Description du poste

Exciting opportunity available with a PE-backed international technology business looking for a Senior Legal Operations professional to support an exciting transformation of its Legal function.

Central London, hybrid working. 3 days/week on an initial 3 month day rate contract commencing from January.

This is a genuinely hands-on role. They are looking for someone who can not only identify where AI and automation can improve legal processes, but who is comfortable building and implementing the solutions themselves.

Working closely with the General Counsel, you’ll help redesign how Legal operates and how the wider business engages with the function, with AI and automation at the heart of the programme.

Initial projects will include:

• Designing and building AI-enabled legal workflows and agents
• Automating areas including contract review, vendor risk, compliance approvals and legal intake
• Mapping and redesigning existing legal processes before automating themCreating a more effective legal intake and triage model
• Turning playbooks, policies and legal know-how into structured rules and templates for AI-supported workflows
• Developing test cases and evaluating the quality and accuracy of AI outputs
• Establishing metrics around turnaround times, volumes and time saved

To be considered for this opportunity, you will have been a qualified lawyer with previous experience in a similar capacity operating in a lead legal operations role.

Practical experience implementing AI and/or automation within a legal function, ideally within a technology or SaaS environment is essential. Experience with tools such as Jira, Ironclad and SharePoint would be highly relevant.

This would suit someone who is commercial, pragmatic and happy rolling their sleeves up, rather than operating purely at strategy level. You’ll need to be comfortable working independently in a fast-moving environment.
