- Promoting the contribution of know-how, and instigating processes to maximise contributions (including attendance at Group meetings, regular Group reminders, end of matter de-briefs etc.)
- Building greater cross practice area connections between other professional support lawyers in the MEA region and other professional support lawyers with the same role globally
- Creating and maintaining of precedents, templates, standard advice, and process maps needed by the Group to promote efficient, streamlined work production and support delegation

- Identifying innovative approaches to the improvement of service delivery in both technology and process
- Supporting the Group's training (in the MEA Region and where appropriate globally) by providing input into the curriculum, as well as developing training and presentation materials (including e-learning modules) and delivering modules as required
- Supporting the Group's external client training by developing training and presentation materials and delivering modules as required; in particular, identifying opportunities to recycle internal training materials to offer clients "added value" services
- Qualified lawyer in a common law jurisdiction, with at least five years' post qualification experience as an arbitration/disputes lawyer
- Regional experience preferable
- Previous experience in a PSL/knowledge role, or track record in supporting knowledge projects, helpful
- Innovation mindset, with a focus on re-engineering working practices
- A keen interest in lawtech, with prior experience of using new technology very helpful (portals, workflow tools etc)

- Excellent communication skills and an ability to build relationships with internal fee-earners and external suppliers and clients
- Team player, with a proven ability to lead a project to successful completion
