Our work includes CLM readiness and contracting transformation, legal operating model design, legal operations technology selection and health checks, process improvement, governance, Legal GenAI readiness and tool selection, use-case development, prompt libraries and implementation planning. As Senior Manager, Advisory, you will lead complex, multi-workstream client engagements and serve as a trusted advisor to General Counsel, Heads of Legal Operations and other senior executives. You will translate ambiguous business challenges into clear strategies, practical transformation plans and measurable outcomes. You will be accountable for engagement quality, client relationships, team performance and commercial outcomes. You will also help shape Consilio’s advisory offerings, develop consulting talent, support business development and strengthen the practice’s market position.
Responsibilities:
• What you will do
• Own and lead complex advisory engagements across legal operations, legal technology, contracting transformation and Legal GenAI, from scoping through executive presentation and implementation planning.
• Serve as the primary day-to-day advisor to senior client stakeholders, building trusted relationships and aligning diverse legal, procurement, technology, finance and business interests.
• Define engagement strategy, workplans, governance, deliverables and success measures, and maintain accountability for scope, quality, budget, risks and timelines.
• Lead current-state assessments across organisation, process, technology, governance, data, service delivery and ways of working, identifying root causes and prioritised opportunities.
• Design future-state legal operating models, including service delivery, organisational roles, governance, intake and triage, resourcing, process, technology and performance management.
• Lead CLM readiness and contracting transformation programmes covering strategy, processes, governance, policies, templates, clause libraries, repositories, metadata, obligations, reporting, data readiness and implementation dependencies.
• Lead legal technology strategy, selection and health-check engagements across CLM, ELM, matter management, intake, workflow, document management and related platforms.
• Guide clients through requirements definition, business-case development, vendor evaluation, selection decisions and implementation roadmaps.
• Lead Legal GenAI strategy, readiness and selection engagements, including use-case prioritisation, vendor evaluation, pilot design, risk and governance, operating model implications and adoption planning.
• Oversee the development of prompt libraries, testing methodologies, evaluation criteria, user guidance and sustainable adoption approaches.
• Challenge technology-led assumptions and recommend the right combination of process, operating model, data, technology and GenAI interventions.
Qualifications:
• What we are looking for
• 8-10+ years of relevant experience in legal consulting, legal operations, legal technology, contract management, business transformation, professional services or an in-house legal function.
• A degree in law, business, finance, information technology, information systems, data science or another relevant discipline.
• Demonstrated success leading complex consulting engagements or enterprise transformation programmes with multiple workstreams and senior stakeholders.
• Deep understanding of how corporate legal departments operate, including the interplay among people, process, technology, governance, data and service delivery.
• Strong executive advisory skills, including problem structuring, facilitation, stakeholder alignment, decision support and the development of practical recommendations.
• Credibility with General Counsel, Heads of Legal Operations and other senior functional leaders, with the judgement to navigate sensitive or ambiguous client situations.
• Excellent written, verbal and presentation skills, including experience delivering executive-level findings, business cases, roadmaps and strategic recommendations.
• Strong engagement management capability, including scope, budget, team, priorities, risks, dependencies and client expectations.
• Experience leading and developing consulting teams, reviewing complex work and maintaining consistent delivery standards.
