_____________________________________________________________________________
Are you a systems-minded legal professional who wants to build smarter operations inside a modern, entrepreneurial law firm?
Our client is a boutique firm founded in Boston in 2003 that serves entrepreneurs and emerging companies from formation through exit. They act as outsourced general counsel and pride themselves on sophisticated legal work delivered in a collaborative, fully remote environment.
They are seeking a Legal Operations Manager who can both support corporate matters and elevate how the firm operates in an increasingly technology-driven legal landscape.
The Opportunity
This role is designed for a detail-oriented, process-driven professional who enjoys both corporate paralegal work and operational leadership.
You will work directly with attorneys to support corporate transactions while also improving systems, workflows, and technology adoption across the firm.
Key Responsibilities
Legal Operations Leadership
- Evaluate and implement legal technology tools and workflow systems
- Develop and maintain SOPs and process documentation
- Optimize document management systems and template libraries
- Identify operational inefficiencies and implement improvements
- Support AI and technology integration into legal workflows
Corporate Paralegal Responsibilities
- Manage entity formations and corporate filings
- Support cap table management and equity plan administration using Carta
- Coordinate fundraising, acquisitions, and transaction documentation
- Oversee DocuSign processes and closing binders
- Conduct targeted legal research to support client matters
- Draft applicable documents
Firm & Attorney Support
- Coordinate project timelines and ensure deliverables are tracked
- Prepare meeting materials and manage action items
- Review documents for consistency and quality control
- Serve as a central operational hub for attorneys and staff
Qualifications
- Experience in corporate law, emerging companies, or startup environments
- Strong background in process improvement or legal operations
- High level of attention to detail and organizational discipline
- Comfort with legal technology platforms such as Carta, DocuSign, Clio, Dropbox, Slack, or similar tools
- Ability to work independently in a remote environment
We are seeking someone who can think strategically about operations while also executing at a high level.
Why This Role Stands Out
This is not a traditional paralegal position. It is an opportunity to help shape the operational backbone of a modern legal practice serving innovative companies.
If you are energized by building systems, improving workflows, and supporting sophisticated corporate work in a flexible, remote setting, we would love to connect.
