  • Lead the evaluation, design and deployment of artificial intelligence and automation capabilities that transform Legal, Risk and Compliance processes and deliver measurable business value.
  • Partner with stakeholders across Legal, Technology and the wider business to translate strategic objectives into innovative technical solutions and streamlined workflows.
  • Establish best practices, governance standards and controls that strengthen data integrity, compliance, system performance and long-term sustainability.
  • Deliver meaningful reporting, analytics and insights that increase visibility, support executive decision-making and demonstrate the impact of legal technology investments.

What you bring

  • Significant experience in legal operations, legal technology or legal consulting, with a strong focus on systems, automation and digital transformation.
  • Deep expertise with Contract Lifecycle Management platforms and end-to-end contracting workflows, including translating business requirements into technical solutions.
  • Strong Salesforce architecture and integration experience, including connecting enterprise applications and managing complex data environments.
  • Hands-on experience designing and deploying artificial intelligence, workflow automation and emerging technology solutions.
  • Working knowledge of artificial intelligence technologies, including machine learning, natural language processing and generative AI, and their application to business processes.
  • Strong analytical, process-mapping and solution documentation skills, with the ability to communicate effectively across technical and non-technical audiences.
  • A self-driven and innovative mindset, with the ability to lead complex initiatives independently and thrive in a fast-paced global environment.
