About the Business

HWLE is one of Australia's fastest-growing law firms. It has grown by nearly 20% in just over a year, with revenue growing alongside side headcount with more than 2,000 people across nine offices. Growth on that scale needs technology that can keep pace, and the firm is investing to make sure it does. That makes this a rare moment to join. The platform is being built for the next stage of the firm, and the person in this role will help build it.

Who you will work for

Most people choose a role for the company. The best career moves are made for the leader. You will report directly to Sam Sofianos, CIO, a heavyweight of legal technology with more than 20 years in professional services.

your work will be visible at the top of the technology function from day one, and your first 100 days are yours to shape: assess the environment, set the roadmap and deliver the improvements that define the next stage.

About You
