· Track Legal & Sector Trends: Monitor market developments, regulatory updates, and lateral market movements across key practice areas (M&A, Energy/Infrastructure, Banking, Dispute Resolution).

· Collaborate with Regional Teams: Work closely with international KM specialists, Business Development managers, and practicing lawyers to deliver actionable insights on tight deadlines.

Who We Are Looking For

· 1 to 2 years of professional experience in a mid-tier market research agency, corporate intelligence firm, business information provider, or professional services firm.

· Strong Desk Research & OSINT Fundamentals: Proven ability to navigate public registries, company databases, and open-source intelligence efficiently.

· Synthesizer Mentality: You don't just dump raw data; you can digest complex information quickly and summarize key takeaways into clear, concise executive briefs.

· Tech-Savvy & Detail-Oriented: Familiarity with databases like ACRA, Handshakes, Mergermarket, Capital IQ, or similar platforms is a strong plus.

· Proactive Communicator: Comfortable liaising with stakeholders of all levels in a fast-paced, professional environment.

· Academic Background: Degree in Business, Information Management, Law, International Relations, Economics, or a related discipline.
