completeness, source-grounding, usability, and consistency.\nDevelop practical human-review steps and quality-control protocols for AI-assisted workflows.\nPilot Support and Implementation\nSupport AI pilots from intake through design, testing, rollout, feedback collection, and iteration.\nCoordinate with stakeholders to gather requirements, schedule pilot activities, track progress, and document lessons learned.\nHelp define pilot success criteria, usage expectations, sample workflows, and output-quality benchmarks.\nConvert successful pilots into reusable templates, playbooks, training modules, and adoption plans.\nTrack adoption barriers and recommend practical improvements to workflows, training, communications, or tool configuration.\nAdoption and Training\nProvide hands-on coaching to lawyers and business professionals on effective and responsible use of AI tools.\nDesign and execute rollout plans for new platform capabilities, including training programs, quick-reference guides, and practice group-specific use case libraries.\n\nDeliver practical training focused on real work scenarios rather than generic tool features.\n\nHelp users understand how to structure requests, evaluate outputs, preserve confidentiality, and apply appropriate human judgment.\nSupport practice-specific AI sessions, office hours, demonstrations, and workflow workshops.\nCollect feedback from users and help translate it into improved workflows and support materials.\nBuild and maintain a community of internal AI champions and power users across the firm.\nSupport internal communications around AI initiatives - including leadership messaging, tool launches, and firmwide updates - to build awareness, set expectations, and reinforce responsible-use norms.\nEstablish and track adoption metrics - including active user rates, feature utilization, and attorney satisfaction scores - and report results to Firm leadership.\nCross-Functional Collaboration\nWork with IT on tool capabilities, access, integrations, technical constraints, and implementation needs.\nCollaborate with Knowledge Management, Research, Library, and other teams to identify source materials, templates, taxonomies, and knowledge assets that support AI workflows.\nHelp maintain the firm’s library of AI prompts, playbooks, and workflow guides so that content stays accurate, consistent, and current as tools and practices evolve.\nCoordinate with Risk, General Counsel, Information Security, and practice leadership to ensure AI use aligns with Firm policies, client obligations, and professional responsibilities.\nSupport vendor evaluations by testing tools against real Firm use cases and documenting findings.\nSupport responses to AI-related client inquiries, RFPs, security questionnaires, and outside counsel guidelines by supplying accurate descriptions of approved tools, workflows, and human-review and confidentiality safeguards, in coordination with Marketing & Business Development, Information Security, and Risk.\nServe as a practical connector between lawyers, business teams, technologists, KM professionals, and Firm leadership.\n Required\n4+ years of experience in legal innovation, legal operations, consulting, product management, process improvement, knowledge management, legal technology, AI adoption, or professional-services transformation.\nPractical familiarity with generative AI tools and their use in knowledge-work settings.\nStrong ability to document, analyze, and improve workflows.\nExcellent written communication skills, including the ability to create clear prompts, playbooks, checklists, training materials, and project summaries.\nStrong organizational and project-management skills.\nAbility to work effectively with lawyers, business professionals, technologists, and other stakeholders.\nGood judgment regarding confidentiality, quality control, professional responsibility, and appropriate human review.\nComfort operating in a fast-changing environment where tools, practices, and expectations are evolving quickly.\nPreferred\nExperience in a law firm, legal department, professional-services firm, consulting firm, or legal technology company.\nFamiliarity with legal AI tools, Microsoft Copilot, document management systems, knowledge management
