Global Legal & Compliance’s (GL&C) 2030 vision is clear: we are both a protector of the enterprise and an accelerator of Liberty Mutual's ability to win in the markets where we compete. Getting there requires us to operate with a single shared direction, connecting every practice group to GL&C's priorities through trusted data, forward-looking intelligence and the capabilities to work differently.

To that end, the Strategy, Intelligence and Integration (SII) team has been created to bring critical capabilities together to move the GL&C organization in one direction, prioritize consistently, and build skills at the pace our work demands.

As part of the GL&C SII Team, the Strategy & Alignment (S&A) Partner will strengthen alignment between GL&C’s internal Legal practice groups (PGs) and teams, drive enterprise-level integrated prioritization, govern and maintain investment and expense management stewardship, and support GL&C’s 2030 roadmap execution. Together, GL&C’s S&A Partners function as a key center of excellence (COE) for the GL&C organization in these domain areas.

The S&A Partners, in their PG-aligned roles, will optimize execution and decision making, bringing to bear the full suite of GL&C’s operational and enablement capabilities positioned across the SII and newly established Performance and Execution (P&E) teams. SII sets GL&C’s destination: the vision, priorities, and business alignment. Performance & Execution determines what it takes to get there: whether initiatives are operationally viable, which delivery model is optimal, and what is required for success.

This Strategy & Alignment Partner role reports to the SII Strategy and Operations leader. This role will be embedded at one of GL&C’s practice group leadership (L2) tables, working closely with the PG leader and leadership team. The practice group supported is GL&C's in-house policyholder litigation organization, made up of approximately 1,200 employees across a network of field law offices that represent Liberty Mutual and its policyholders in civil litigation and workers' compensation matters, handling cases from routine to high exposure.

The organization is staffed primarily by attorneys, paralegals, and legal/administrative support, with dedicated teams for outside counsel management, legal audit and billing, and litigation quality control.

• 1) Strategic Priority Alignment & Execution: The S&A Partner sets the strategic framework and GL&C department-level (PG-level) goals in partnership with the aligned PG leader and their leadership team. The S&A Partner translates these into PG-level context, tracks execution progress, and surfaces misalignment or resource gaps. The PG leader retains full ownership and accountability for execution within the practice group.
• 2) Practice Group Operating Rhythms & Governance: Establishes cadences, forums, and coordination mechanisms that keep GL&C operating as “One GL&C” while preserving the practice group’s autonomy and accountability. The S&A Partner participates at the PG leadership (L2) table as a standing member, bringing the S&A lens, cross-PG context, and enterprise signals into local planning. The PG leader owns the team’s operating rhythms;
  
  the S&A Partner ensures these connect to the broader GL&C system across the practice group’s national field office network. Participates in L2 leadership team meetings as a…
