Help shape how people use technology
Technology is transforming the way legal services are delivered, and we're looking for an enthusiastic and engaging Systems Trainer to help our people make the most of it.
This is an exciting opportunity to join our Technology Team and play a key role in developing colleagues' confidence and capability across our technology platforms. You'll design and deliver engaging training that enables people to work smarter, embrace new ways of working and get the very best from the systems they use every day.
Whether you're delivering classroom sessions, creating digital learning resources or supporting colleagues through the rollout of new technology, you'll make a real difference to the way our firm works.

· Document management and workflow systems.
· Telephony and collaboration platforms.
· Business applications used across our legal and business support teams.
· New and emerging technologies, including AI-enabled tools, as we continue to invest in innovation and digital transformation.
No two days are the same, and you'll have the opportunity to help shape how technology is adopted across the firm as new systems and capabilities are introduced.

· Strong organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
· A collaborative, proactive approach and a genuine commitment to providing an excellent user experience.
It would be advantageous if you have:
· Experience within a legal or professional services environment.
· Knowledge of legal case management systems such as Partner for Windows.
· Experience of Learning Management Systems (LMS), e-learning development or change management.
· Relevant Microsoft, learning and development or training qualifications.
What success looks like
In this role, you'll have the opportunity to make a visible impact across the firm. Success will include:
· Colleagues who are confident, capable and enthusiastic users of the firm's technology.
· New employees who quickly become productive through engaging and effective onboarding.
· High levels of adoption of new systems, processes and digital ways of working.
