Legal Project Manager

Hybrid | Competitive Salary + Excellent Benefits

If you're an experienced Legal Project Manager looking for a role where you'll influence the way complex legal matters are delivered, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.

We're partnering with a globally recognised professional services organisation to recruit an exceptional Legal Project Manager into a highly respected and collaborative team.

This isn't a traditional project management role. You'll work alongside senior legal professionals on high-profile, complex matters, helping to shape strategy, improve delivery, enhance client experience and drive commercial success. You'll be trusted to challenge the status quo, introduce smarter ways of working and become a valued adviser to stakeholders across the business.

• Partnering with senior lawyers and stakeholders to plan, scope and deliver complex legal matters
• Managing budgets, timelines, resources and project risks
• Driving continuous improvement and identifying opportunities to increase efficiency
• Supporting pricing, reporting and commercial decision-making
• Working closely with Finance, Technology, Business Development and Operations teams
• Championing Legal Project Management best practice across the business
• Coaching and supporting colleagues to embed innovative ways of working

You'll already have experience delivering complex projects within a legal or professional services environment and be confident working with senior stakeholders.

• Experience in Legal Project Management or a similar client-facing project management role
• Strong commercial awareness and financial acumen
• Outstanding stakeholder management skills
• A passion for improving processes and delivering exceptional client service
• Experience using project management and reporting tools such as Excel, Power BI, Smartsheet or similar

There are plenty of Legal Project Manager roles on the market. Very few offer the opportunity to work with one of the world's leading professional services organisations, influence the delivery of globally significant client work and become part of a team that's helping shape the future of legal services. You'll join a business that genuinely values innovation, collaboration and continuous improvement, where your ideas won't just be heard, they'll make a difference.

Salary: $150,000 – $180,000 per annum, plus a comprehensive benefits package.
