Excellent legal drafting, analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to identify and manage legal risk effectively.
Strong stakeholder management and communication skills, including the ability to explain complex legal concepts to non-legal audiences and build trusted relationships across an organisation.
Proven ability to manage competing priorities, deliver high-quality advice within timeframes and contribute to continuous improvement of legal processes and practices.
