 Experience &amp; Qualifications
 
 
 
 
 Essential

 Working in a high performance in-house financial services legal and compliance team, ideally retail brokerage.

 <li>
 Exposure to no-code/low-code workflow automation tools.

 </li>
 </ul>
 
 
 
 
 
 What We Are Looking For
 
 
 
 Beyond technical experience, the right person for this role will bring:
 
 <ul>
 <li>
 A genuine passion for legal operations as a career &mdash; someone who finds deep satisfaction in building systems that work and in making a team more effective.
 </li>
 <li>
 A problem-solver's mindset: you see a broken process and you want to fix it. You are resourceful, practical, and solutions-oriented.
 </li>
 <li>
 Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to operate independently in an environment where not everything is defined yet &mdash; and an eagerness to be the person who defines it.
 </li>
 <li>
 A collaborative and low-ego working style. You will work closely with lawyers, compliance professionals, and external parties, and you will need to earn trust quickly.
 </li>
 <li>
 High standards and attention to detail &mdash; in a regulated financial services environment, precision is not optional.
 </li>
 <li>
 Curiosity about AI and legal technology &mdash; not as a buzzword, but as a genuine tool for making things better.
 </li>
 </ul>
 
 
 
 
 
 What This Role Is Not
 
 
 
 We want to be direct: this is not a role for someone looking to qualify as a lawyer or to gain legal work experience on the way to another career. The legal team has no capacity to supervise legal development or provide career mentorship toward legal practice. We need someone who is committed to legal operations as their profession and who sees this as a role in which they can grow and make a lasting impact &mdash; not a waypoint to something else.
