Job Description

WHO WE ARE

We’re not in the wing business. We’re in the flavor business. It’s been our mission to Serve the World Flavor since we first opened in 1994, and we’re just getting started. 1997 saw the opening of our first brand partner operated Wingstop location, and by 2002 we had served the world one billion wings. It’s flavor that defines us and has made Wingstop one of the fastest growing brands in the restaurant industry.

Above all else – our success is largely due to our people and our core values, or what we call The Wingstop Way of being entrepreneurial, service-minded, fun, and authentic. We believe having a strong people foundation centered on these collective values creates a crave-worthy culture and talented team, as well as ensures our brand is poised for accelerated growth. We all win together.

WHAT WE’LL NEED

The Director, Legal Operations will build and scale a technology-enabled operating model that makes recurring legal work faster, more consistent, and easier for the business to navigate. This leader will redesign how work is requested, triaged, produced, reviewed, and completed using standardized processes, governed knowledge, automation, and AI to increase capacity and reduce dependence on individual ways of working.

Working closely with Legal leadership and cross-functional partners, the Director will distinguish repeatable, lower-sensitivity work suited for automated or business self-service pathways from novel, complex, or sensitive matters that require legal judgment. This is a hands-on transformation role for a business-minded operations leader; a legal background is not required.

  • Assess Legal workflows, systems, data, stakeholder needs, and pain points; define the Legal Operations strategy, governance, roadmap, and prioritized transformation backlog.
  • Redesign recurring legal services end to end, including intake, triage, routing, approvals, escalation, and completion; establish clear decision rights, service expectations, handoffs, and controls that direct work to the right resource and level of review.
  • Establish the knowledge architecture, content-governance standards, and repository for Legal SOPs, playbooks, templates, checklists, and approved work product, with substantive legal content owned by the responsible Legal leader.
  • Develop guided self-service pathways for approved, lower-sensitivity matters so business teams can address routine needs consistently while novel, complex, and sensitive matters are routed to Legal.
  • Lead the Legal technology, workflow automation, and AI roadmap from requirements and business-case development through implementation and optimization; partner with Technology, Information Security, Privacy, and other stakeholders to scale responsible AI-enabled use cases with appropriate governance, human oversight, and controls.
  • Use demand, cycle-time, service, adoption, quality, risk, and capacity metrics to prioritize improvements, evaluate outcomes, and continuously improve Legal delivery.
  • Lead change management and cross-functional implementation for new processes, tools, and ways of working by clarifying ownership, building stakeholder alignment, addressing resistance, and reinforcing adoption.

WHAT YOU’LL NEED

  • Bachelor's degree in a relevant field or an equivalent combination of education and experience.
  • 8+ years of progressive experience in legal operations, business transformation, operational excellence, process improvement, change management, consulting, or a related field. A legal background or law degree is not required.
  • Proven experience designing end-to-end processes, standardizing workflows, and delivering measurable improvements in speed, quality, consistency, or capacity; Lean Six Sigma Black Belt certification or comparable transformation expertise is strongly preferred.
  • Experience leading technology-enabled transformation from requirements through implementation, adoption, and optimization; experience with workflow automation, AI-enabled tools, contract lifecycle management, matter management, knowledge management, or related technology is preferred.
  • Experience building governed knowledge systems, SOPs, playbooks, reusable content, or self-service operating models is strongly preferred.
  • Strong analytical acumen with the ability to establish meaningful metrics, interpret operational data, prioritize investments, and demonstrate business impact.
  • Demonstrated change leadership and the ability to influence executives, attorneys, and cross-functional partners, address resistance, sustain new ways of working, and translate between business and technical audiences.
  • Exceptional program management, communication, facilitation, and executive presentation skills, with the ability to balance strategic thinking, hands-on execution, multiple priorities, and disciplined follow-through.
  • Experience in a consumer, restaurant, retail, hospitality, multi-unit, franchise, or similarly complex organization is preferred.

WHO YOU ARE

No job is too small. You recognize that the real work happens in the restaurants, and everything we do should support their success. You stay humble, roll up your sleeves, and always look for ways to help. You learn from others and contribute wherever you can.

You care deeply about doing great work and driving results. You’re curious, ask questions, and seek out opportunities to improve. You don’t just point out problems—you bring solutions, ideas, and perspectives that move the team forward.

You take full responsibility for your work and see things through to completion. You aren’t afraid to fail because you know that failure is a part of learning and growth. You take action, move fast, and keep pushing forward.

You lead with empathy, respect, and emotional intelligence. You collaborate effectively, fostering a culture of trust and constructive feedback. You understand the importance of teamwork and ensure that your actions build others up rather than break them down.

You push yourself and others to be better. You embrace healthy conflict, knowing that great ideas and strong teams emerge from honest, constructive conversations. You believe that leaders create leaders and are committed to fostering a culture of growth, challenge, and continuous improvement.

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.
