Qualifications
Minimum Qualifications: - Experience in legal operations, legal technology, process improvement, systems implementation, or a similar business-partner role. - Strong ability to work effectively with both legal stakeholders and technical teams, and to translate business needs into clear operational or system requirements. - Experience leading workflow improvement, system enhancement, or operational change in a cross-functional environment. - Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify root causes, exercise sound judgment, and recommend practical solutions. - Experience supporting or managing legal technology platforms, including CLM or other workflow-based systems. - Ability to work independently, manage multiple priorities, and drive progress across teams, regions, and time zones. - Practical understanding of how automation and AI can be applied within legal operations. Preferred Qualifications: - Experience working within a legal department or another regulated, process-driven environment. - Familiarity with workflow, intake, approval, reporting, or automation tools used in legal or operational settings. - Practical understanding of change management and user adoption in connection with systems or process improvements. - Excellent written and verbal communication skills, including the ability to produce clear documentation, training materials, and stakeholder updates.
