THE ROLE & TEAM

At Brabners, we are embarking on an exciting journey to transform how knowledge is captured, shared and used across the firm. We are looking for a Senior Knowledge Manager to play a pivotal, strategic role in establishing and embedding a modern Knowledge Management (KM) capability that supports our people and enhances client service.

This is a unique opportunity to shape a firm-wide function from the ground up, driving innovation, consistency and continuous improvement in how we manage legal knowledge.

Agencies: We are not accepting CVs for this role as we are aiming to fill it directly. We value your support and will reach out if required. Please do not send speculative CVs. Any unsolicited CVs sent to hiring managers or the business, without prior instruction from a member of the Talent Acquisition team, will be treated as a gift.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Lead delivery of the firm’s Knowledge Management strategy and roadmap, from discovery through to implementation and adoption.
  • Design and evolve a firm-wide KM framework, including a trusted “single source of truth” for legal knowledge, precedents and templates.

  • Support and develop Knowledge Lawyer roles, ensuring effective capture, reuse and maintenance of high-value knowledge.

  • Implement governance frameworks covering content quality, lifecycle management and information risk.
  • Collaborate with IT, Data and AI teams to integrate KM systems with document management and enterprise search tools.
  • Define and track KPIs to measure adoption, value and impact of KM initiatives.
  • Identify opportunities to improve how knowledge is captured and reused, championing best practice across the firm.

ABOUT YOU

  • Proven experience in a Knowledge Manager, PSL or similar role within a law firm or professional services environment.

  • Experience delivering KM initiatives or projects end-to-end.
  • Familiarity with document management systems, knowledge repositories and enterprise search tools.
  • Knowledge of information governance, content lifecycle management and risk.
  • Experience working with legal tech, data or AI teams is advantageous.
  • Strong strategic mindset, with the ability to align KM initiatives to wider business goals.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
