Sr Director, Legal & Compliance Technology

Sr. Director, Legal & Compliance Technology Lennar Technology Group
· Corporate Systems Position Summary Lennar is investing in the technology behind its Legal and Compliance functions. The portfolio spans matter management and legal spend, document management and drafting, entity and corporate governance, risk and insurance, compliance and ethics, and e-discovery. Some capabilities are solid. Others are not, and contract lifecycle management is largely unbuilt.

The Sr. Director owns that portfolio and the roadmap that shapes it: running the platforms Legal depends on daily, leading the evaluations that determine what comes next, and carrying delivery once a direction is set.

Partnership is the heart of this job, not a footnote to it. This role is a deliberate pairing with Legal Operations, who owns business process and adoption; the two are accountable for the same outcomes and neither succeeds alone. Platform and investment decisions are made jointly with Functional and Technical leadership, so building the case and driving it to closure matters as much as the technical judgment behind it.

Engineering, architecture, and data teams build alongside you. Success here depends on earning trust across functions and getting to the right answer with people rather than around them.

Lead vendor evaluation and selection with Sourcing and Legal; own licensing posture, renewal strategy, and performance against contract

Contract lifecycle management

Lead the CLM agenda across intake, authoring, negotiation, approval, execution, repository, obligation management, and renewal: run the evaluation, make the recommendation, own the delivery
