Connect to your opportunity

An opportunity has arisen within Deloitte Legal as our Contracts Transformation practice continues to grow. We are looking for a bright, curious and adaptable Senior Consultant to help deliver innovative, technology-enabled contracting solutions.

You will join a specialist UK contracting operations and transformation team. We help clients improve how contracting works through operating model and process design, technology implementation, template rationalisation, data, change and adoption, and agentic AI.

We value strong consulting fundamentals, a practical can-do mindset, excellent attention to detail and the resilience to thrive in a fast-paced environment. You will own deliverables and smaller workstreams while building experience across varied client challenges.

Specific responsibilities include

• Client delivery and problem solving
• Deliver high-quality work across operating model and process design, technology implementation, template and clause rationalisation, data, change and AI-enabled contracting.
• Own defined deliverables and smaller workstreams from planning through completion, maintaining quality, momentum and clear project controls.
• Use research, interviews, workshops and data analysis to diagnose challenges and turn complex information into practical recommendations and implementation plans.
• Prepare clear, well-structured client materials and confidently support or facilitate meetings and workshops.
• Build trusted relationships across legal, commercial, procurement, operations, technology and data teams.
• Use generative and agentic AI responsibly in delivery, help test AI-enabled contracting workflows and support client adoption.
• Contribute to proposals, reusable assets and new offerings, and support junior colleagues through feedback and knowledge sharing.

Connect to your skills and professional experience

• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills, with the ability to structure ambiguity and translate findings into clear, practical recommendations.
• Excellent attention to detail and judgement, balancing quality, pace and commercial relevance.
• A curious, adaptable and resilient can-do mindset, with the confidence to take ownership, seek feedback and learn quickly.
• Confidence using AI to improve consulting work, alongside sound judgement on confidentiality, validation, risk and human oversight.

Personal independence

Regulation and controls are standard practice in our industry and Deloitte is no exception. These controls provide important legal protection for both you and the firm. We are subject to a number of audit regulations, one of which requires that certain colleagues abide by specific personal independence constraints (e.g., in relation to any financial interests and employment relationships). This can mean that you and your "Immediate Family Members" are not permitted to hold certain financial interests (shares, funds, bonds etc.) with audit clients of the firm, and also prohibitions on certain employment relationships (e.g., you are not permitted to hold a secondary employment role with SEC audit clients of the firm whilst being employed by the firm). The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process or you can contact the Independence team upon request.
