Help Transform How Legal Services Are Delivered
At Lawfront we're building the UK's leading people-led, AI-enabled legal services group. With seven firms, 800+ legal professionals and £166m in revenue, we're investing heavily in AI to transform the way legal work is delivered, priced and managed
We're looking for a Lead AI Data Scientist to drive the next phase of this transformation, identifying where AI can create the greatest value, building solutions that reach production, and delivering measurable business impact across the group.
Unlike many data science roles, this isn't about building models that stay in development. You'll work directly with legal and business teams to deploy AI solutions that improve productivity, enhance quality and drive commercial performance at scale.
What You'll Do
Identify opportunities to embed AI and automation within legal workflows.
Build, test and evaluate LLM-powered solutions using modern AI techniques.
Work closely with engineers, architects and business stakeholders to move successful solutions into production.
Define success metrics and measure the real-world impact of AI adoption.
Develop dashboards and reporting that demonstrate operational and commercial benefits.
Monitor deployed AI solutions and continuously improve performance over time.
About You
You'll be an experienced Data Scientist with a strong track record of taking AI solutions from concept to production. You'll bring hands-on experience with LLMs, prompt engineering, retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), Python, SQL and cloud-based data platforms such as Azure, Databricks or Snowflake.
Just as importantly, you'll be comfortable working with senior stakeholders, translating business challenges into AI opportunities and demonstrating measurable outcomes that matter to the business.
Why Join Lawfront?
This is a rare opportunity to shape AI adoption at scale within a growing, private equity-backed organisation where innovation is a strategic priority. You'll have the freedom to influence direction, solve complex challenges and see your work deployed across an entire legal services group.
If you're excited by applied AI, real-world impact and the opportunity to build solutions that genuinely transform how professionals work, we'd love to hear from you
