We understand the powerful forces transforming the delivery of our services today, and we embrace that change. We don’t just claim to be innovative, we show it. One of the ways we show it is through the ongoing and ever-expanding growth of the Legal Delivery Centre (LDC), located in Birmingham. Our LDC team is energetic, fast paced and innovative. They work seamlessly with our partners and lawyers on city grade work across our practice groups, as an extension of our London office as well as supporting our other offices around the world.

The role offers a broad range of work and exposure to different sectors. Working closely with the management team and our wider Legal Operations team, the Team Leader will develop their practical knowledge and experience of cutting edge legal technology to help maximise the efficiency of the services the LDC delivers.
