About the Role
We are seeking an adaptable, detail-driven Paralegal / Legal & Compliance Operations Manager to support our growing legal, compliance, and governance functions.
This is a unique hybrid role designed to bridge traditional legal execution-such as managing dispute dockets, judgment enforcement, and regulatory compliance-with modern, technology-driven workflow automation. Whether you are a seasoned paralegal looking to modernize your operations toolkit or an ambitious early-career candidate with strong technology skills (AI, automation, data management) and an appetite to master regulatory and legal processes, this position offers high visibility and ownership across the firm.

Compliance Monitoring: Help execute routine compliance tasks, including quarterly questionnaires and approvals.
4. Corporate Governance & Entity Management
Entity Maintenance: Maintain state filings and good standing certificates across all corporate entities and subsidiaries.
Board & Shareholder Support: Draft routine corporate resolutions, maintain minute books, coordinate signature packets, and organize board materials.
5. Data Management & Process Innovation
Workflow Automation: Identify opportunities to optimize legal/compliance processes using modern tools, low-code automations, and AI-driven workflows.
Document & Knowledge Architecture: Organize, index, and secure the legal department's knowledge repository, contract database, and historical filing records.
Data Integrity & Metrics: Ensure clean data across compliance and legal logging systems to enable clear reporting to executive management.
