Legal Documentation Analyst - Legal Tech / Financial Services
We are working with a fast-growing legal technology business that supports some of the world's leading financial institutions with the digitisation and analysis of complex legal agreements.
They are now looking for Legal Documentation Analysts to join the team on a contract basis. This would suit someone who has moved beyond junior paralegal-level review work and has gained genuine exposure to financial services legal documentation, contract data, remediation or legal technology projects, but who is still happy working in a hands-on analyst capacity.
The role sits at the intersection of law, finance and technology. The work will involve reviewing, analysing and extracting key information from financial services legal agreements, helping to ensure that contract data is accurate, consistent and properly captured within the platform.
You may be working with documents such as ISDAs, CSAs, syndicated loan agreements, trading documentation, onboarding documentation or other financial/legal agreements. Experience with these exact documents would be helpful, but broader experience in contract review, legal documentation, legal operations, document remediation or financial services documentation could also be relevant.
This is not a traditional paralegal role and it is not purely document review. It requires someone who enjoys getting into the detail of contracts, understands the importance of accurate legal data, and can apply judgment while still following structured processes.
You will need to be confident working with complex documentation, spotting inconsistencies, reconciling information and asking sensible questions where something does not look right. Strong attention to detail, good Excel/data skills and a genuine interest in legal technology will be important.
This could suit a paralegal, legal analyst, documentation analyst, contract analyst or legal operations professional who has worked within a law firm, financial institution, legal managed services team, legal tech provider or in-house legal function.
The role is based in the City on a hybrid basis and will initially be offered as a contract, with strong potential for extension and further project work.
