Job DetailsJobot is partnering with a reputable, stable and growing law firm to staff a position for an AI Utilization Counsel on their team.
AI Utilization Counsel will support the effective and responsible adoption and utilization of generative AI across company practices. As a member of the Client & Innovation Office, this role will partner closely with Practice Group Chairs, Knowledge and Research Services, Professional Development, IT, GCO, Training, Marketing and Business Development, among other departments and individuals across the firm, to translate AI strategy into day-to-day behaviors, workflows, and measurable value for our company and our clients.
The ideal candidate is a licensed attorney with hands-on experience using legal generative AI tools, strong communication and teaching skills, and a practical understanding of the opportunities and risks of AI in legal practice.
Responsibilities and Duties:
Engagement & Training
Design and deliver engaging training programs (live and virtual) on how to effectively use firm-approved generative AI tools in legal practice.
Provide 1:1 and small-group coaching to attorneys on integrating AI into their workflows, matters, and client service models.
Create practical guides, checklists, and use-case playbooks for meaningful AI utilization.
Evaluate and manage new and existing AI training vendors.
Partner with the Professional Development and Training teams to identify and develop role- and practice-specific training opportunities and pathways (e.g., for junior associates, senior associates, partners, paralegals, and professional staff).
Practice Integration & Use Cases
In collaboration with other C&I team members, partner with practice group leaders to identify, prioritize, and refine high-value AI use cases within specific practices (e.g., M&A, finance, litigation, IP, real estate, etc.).
Identify and help design processes for utilizing AI, including quality control checkpoints and supervision expectations.
Pilot and iterate AI-enabled workflows with selected matters and teams, gather feedback, and scale successful approaches across the firm.
Identify opportunities for embedding AI into templates, playbooks, checklists, and know-how assets and provide training and direction for practices to effectively deploy.
Thought Leadership, Policy Reinforcement, and Change Management
Develop communication strategies and content (FAQs, intranet materials, short videos, internal webinars) to drive adoption and demystify AI for busy practitioners.
Along with the rest of the C&I team, act as a visible and trusted internal champion for AI utilization.
Partner with the GCO to identify opportunities to reinforce firm AI policy and GCO messaging regarding professional responsibility obligations, confidentiality, and client expectations.
Stay current on legal industry trends, internal policies and guidance, and client requirements related to AI.
Vendor & Tool Utilization Support

Support attorney transitions to new or modified AI tools and resources.
Actively engage with AI vendor customer success teams and work closely with the other members of the Innovation team during tool evaluations, pilots, and rollouts of AI tools, to develop integration and adoption strategies.
Metrics, Feedback, and Continuous Improvement
Define and create a plan to track adoption and impact metrics (e.g., training participation, usage patterns, effective pricing utilization, time savings, qualitative feedback from partners and clients).
In collaboration with other members of the Innovation team, regularly collect feedback from attorneys and professional staff to identify pain points, barriers to adoption, and emerging needs; translate this feedback into clear action items.
Provide consistent reports and updates to the Chief Client & Innovation Officer on progress and recommendations, including examples illustrating business and client value.
