• Improve the Legal team's operational efficiency by implementing legal technology solutions, including AI-assisted tools, document management systems, and workflow automation.


• Maintain legal document repositories, monitor contract execution and renewal deadlines, and support day-to-day legal operations.


• Assist with corporate projects, intra-group restructuring initiatives, and other legal or governance matters as required.

• Strong organizational and document management skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and meet deadlines with accuracy.


• A proactive mindset with an interest in improving processes and adopting legal technology, including AI-enabled tools.


• Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with the ability to work effectively with internal teams, regulators, external service providers, and corporate stakeholders.
