Legal operations analyst

Legal operations analysts help legal departments run more efficiently, analysing spend, vendors, and processes. The work involves reporting on legal costs and matter data, building dashboards, identifying inefficiencies, and supporting initiatives that improve how the legal function operates.

They work in corporate legal departments and large law firms. The role suits analytical, process-minded people who enjoy bringing business discipline to legal work, and who can combine data analysis with the qualitative observation needed to spot where things could run better.
