The Vacancy

Fieldfisher Condor is the legal solutions division of Fieldfisher LLP, designed to deliver high-quality, scalable and cost-effective services that complement and enhance traditional legal advice.

We operate across four core verticals: flexible resourcing, document review, legal technology and contract negotiation, each built to support our clients with practical, efficient and expertly delivered solutions. What sets us apart is our unique position: we provide the operational strength and agility of a specialist legal services provider, backed by the breadth, depth and assurance of a leading international law firm.

This combination enables us to apply both technical expertise and commercial insight to every matter, giving clients a seamlessly integrated, end-to-end service.

Position Overview

As a Legal Solutions Assistant, you’ll help improve legal processes by providing solutions across all internal Fieldfisher Practices but also working direct to clients. The role sits at the intersection of law, technology, and process improvement. This role will harness the configuration of legal technology tools, analyse workflows to optimise legal processes, and drive efficiency across legal operations. You’ll work closely with senior team members to gather requirements, test solutions, and provide user support. This role is hands-on and collaborative, giving you the opportunity to learn legal systems, build technical skills, and contribute to continuous improvements across the legal function.

About you

You’re a curious, proactive problem-solver with a genuine interest in how technology can transform the legal world. You enjoy working with data, learning new tools, and supporting others, and you’re comfortable using platforms like Excel, HighQ, and PowerPoint to create clear, structured outputs. You stay aware of emerging legal tech trends and are particularly excited about the growing role of AI in legal work. You communicate well, collaborate confidently with different teams, and bring a positive, learning-focused mindset to every project.

Candidates should have:

  • A background as a law or business graduate or over 2 years' experience in legal or a commercial sector would be advantageous.
  • Strong Excel skills, including working with spreadsheets, basic formulas, data manipulation, and reporting including data visualisation charts.
  • Familiarity with Matter Management Systems (e.g. HighQ).
  • Proficiency in PowerPoint, with the ability to create clear, well-structured presentations.
  • Interest in emerging legal technology trends, with a curiosity to utilise digital tools to enhance legal projects.
  • Keen interest in AI and its impact on the legal sector, including applications in document review, research, automation, and workflow optimisation.
  • Good analytical and problem-solving skills, with the ability to break down processes and identify improvements.
  • Strong communication skills, especially when working with both technical and legal stakeholders.
  • Willingness to learn new systems, tools, and methods used in legal operations and legal tech.
  • Comfortable managing competing priorities in a busy team environment.
  • Excellent organisational skills, including efficient mailbox management and the ability to work to deadlines.

Who are we looking for?

  • We don't have a type. We believe our differences are our strength; varied cultures, approaches and experience can only benefit us.

What do we offer?

  • You can be yourself:It takes everyone to make us who we are. We’re a culture of diverse perspectives, with each of us making unique contributions that make us better together.
  • In the office or WFH?: We think the best balance is more time in the office than at home, so we operate a 60:40 rule.
  • Beyond salary: We offer plenty of benefits; private medical insurance, health cash plan, dental insurance, life assurance, critical illness insurance, matched pension contributions up to 7%, holiday trading, plus many more. Visit:Reward & Benefits ¦ Fieldfisher.
  • Modern Office Space:Located in Belfast City Centre with excellent commuter links and parking nearby.
  • Nurturing your talent: Take a 'build a career' approach to your training. You'll be on a pathway but free to wander if you see something you'd like to study more closely.
  • Funnel your interests: You have a life outside work, and we can help it to flourish. Join clubs, affinity networks, inclusive events, and pro bono/charity initiatives.

Inclusion is not exclusive:

If all our differences are highlighted, no one stands out for being different. At Fieldfisher, all our rich diversity is celebrated.

We will provide the equipment to allow you to shine, at interview and beyond. Just let us know what you need.

Where to Advertise Data Science Jobs in the UK (2026 Guide)

Where to advertise data science jobs UK in 2026: the specialist boards, communities and channels that actually reach senior and lead data science talent. Data science spans a broad and often misunderstood spectrum — from statistical modelling and experimental design through to machine learning engineering, product analytics and AI research. The strongest candidates identify firmly with specific subdisciplines and are frustrated by adverts that conflate data scientist with data analyst, business intelligence developer or machine learning engineer. General job boards produce high application volumes for data roles but consistently fail to match specialist data science profiles with the right opportunities. This guide, published by DataScienceJobs.co.uk, covers where to advertise data science roles in the UK in 2026, how the main platforms compare, what employers should expect to pay, and what the data says about hiring across different role types.

Data Science Jobs UK 2026: What to Expect Over the Next 3 Years

Data Science Jobs UK 2026: roles, salaries and the trends shaping UK data science hiring over the next three years — from MLE crossover to GenAI workflows. Data science has spent the past decade being described as the sexiest job of the twenty-first century. By 2026, the reality is both more nuanced and more interesting than that label ever suggested. The discipline has matured, fragmented, deepened, and in some respects reinvented itself — and the jobs market has changed with it in ways that create genuine opportunity for those who understand what employers actually want, and genuine difficulty for those still operating on assumptions formed five years ago. The data science jobs market of 2026 is not simply a larger version of what it was three years ago. The generalist data scientist — equally comfortable wrangling data, building models, and presenting insights to the board — is giving way to a more specialised landscape where employers know exactly what problem they are trying to solve and are looking for candidates with the specific depth to solve it. Machine learning engineering, causal inference, experimentation, AI product development, and domain-specific applied science have all emerged as distinct career tracks within what was previously a single, loosely defined profession. At the same time, the arrival of large language models and the broader AI capability wave has both threatened and created data science roles in equal measure. Some of the work that junior data scientists spent their early careers doing — data cleaning, exploratory analysis, basic model building — is being partially automated by AI tooling. But the demand for practitioners who can evaluate AI systems rigorously, apply statistical thinking to complex business problems, and build the data foundations on which AI depends has grown considerably. The candidates who will thrive over the next three years are those who understand where the discipline is heading — which specialisms are attracting the most investment, which technologies are reshaping what data scientists are expected to build and know, and how to position a data science career that will remain valuable as the field continues to evolve around them. This article breaks down what the UK data science jobs market is likely to look like through to 2028 — covering the titles emerging right now, the technologies driving employer demand, the skills that will matter most, and how to position your career ahead of the curve.
