This role is particularly suited to experienced lawyers seeking to transition into their first Knowledge Lawyer position, combining technical excellence with strategic involvement across knowledge, business development, and training.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the team’s knowledge strategy and ensure tax and policy developments are effectively shared.
• Develop and maintain knowhow materials, precedents, and guidance notes.
