About the Role
An exciting opportunity for an experienced Lawyer or a Legal Counsel who'd like to take their legal career in a new direction – away from long hours and towards high‐impact, client‐facing work in legal innovation.
This is a relationship‐driven, lawyer‐to‐lawyer role, where you'll operate across both pre‐sales and post‐sales activity within top‐tier law firm and corporate accounts.
You will play a key role in a global drive to adoption and engagement of Lexis Nexis Protégé – our AI‐powered legal platform that brings together legal research, drafting, and analysis in one seamless experience. Read about Protégé here: https://www.lexisnexis.com/en-au/products/protege
You will engage directly with lawyers, heads of department and practice area heads to secure support and endorsement for Protégé adoption.
This is a permanent, full‐time position and can be based in Sydney or Melbourne with flexible hybrid working arrangements.
What You'll Be Doing
* Drive adoption of Protégé (AI‐powered legal platform) in top accounts by working lawyer‐to‐lawyer with senior legal stakeholders
* Build trusted relationships with practice leaders and translate workflow priorities into practical AI‐enabled solutions
* Deliver high‐impact demonstrations that show how AI (Protégé) improves legal work and outcomes
* Partner with Relationship Managers and Directors to research prospects and execute pursuit strategies that build senior‐level relationships and create new business opportunities (pre‐sales activities)
* Capture customer insights in CRM and feed learnings back to the business to shape engagement and recommendations
Requirements
* Legally qualified professional (essential)
* 5 years' experience as a practicing lawyer, legal counsel or barrister
* Strong interest in moving beyond traditional practice into AI, legal tech or innovation
* Curiosity and enthusiasm for AI and how it can transform legal workflows
* Experience in client‐facing, advisory, or stakeholder engagement roles (pre/post‐sales experience beneficial but not essential)
* Background in a top‐tier law firm or in‐house legal team (highly regarded)
* Strong executive presence with confidence engaging senior stakeholders
* Experience presenting, facilitating, or demonstrating solutions — or a willingness to develop these skills
