This role may also provide some operations support on other corporate legal matters, depending on business needs and priorities.
Key Responsibilities
Technology & Process Optimization
Manage integration and optimization of core legal technology solutions (e.g., CLM, eBilling, service/matter management, knowledge and policy hubs).
Develop and implement automation, analytics, and AI solutions to improve operational efficiency and/or reporting within the department.
Drive adoption and consistent use of legal technology through training, documentation, and change management strategies.
Proactively identify and implement process improvements to streamline legal workflows and reduce turnaround times or friction points.
Data Analytics & Reporting
Build and maintain dashboards and metrics (e.g., contract cycle times, matter volume, legal spend) to track and measure progress on operational efficiency, effectiveness, and performance against department and company strategy, goals, initiatives, and KPIs.
Generate actionable insights to identify opportunities for improvements and support strategic planning.
Project & Change Management
Lead and manage Legal-owned projects from scoping and planning through execution and post-execution (e.g., legal system launch or process redesign), ensuring alignment with strategic goals.
Act as the Legal lead or liaison on cross-functional business projects where Legal is a key stakeholder (e.g., new product launches, business expansion) to ensure legal requirements, risks, and dependencies are identified, translated into actionable requirements, and tracked throughout the project.
Other Operational Support
Assist Legal leadership, including the Chief Legal Officer, with defining and driving department strategy, goals, initiatives, and KPIs, as aligned with those of the broader company.
Assist with operational support on other corporate legal matters, such as managing policy audits for compliance or legal due diligence processes for corporate transactions.
Qualifications

Excellent organizational, project management, communication, and collaboration/stakeholder management skills, including an ability to translate between technical, legal, and business needs
Ability to work autonomously and manage multiple priorities in a high-growth or dynamic environment
Preferred:
