[Hiring] Legal Content Technician @SOVRA

Role Description

SOVRA is looking for a Legal Content Technician to support the expansion of the Edilex product outside Quebec as new customers begin using the product. This new role combines customer implementation work with ongoing legal content and product maintenance.

• Your work will span legal content creation (templates) for customers to use within the product, as well as turning customer requirements into custom legal documents.
• The work sits between legal content, technology, implementation, and customer service.
• It requires a practical understanding of business contracts, careful attention to detail, confidence with technology, and the ability to work through the unknowns that come with taking an established product into a new market.

Main Responsibilities

• Customer Implementation:
  • You manage implementation work with a small portfolio of customers, coordinating timelines, deliverables, and follow-through from setup through completion.
  • You configure Edilex technology for customers as they onboard, translating agreed requirements into a usable setup.
  • You build custom legal templates for individual customers during implementation and help ensure those templates are ready for practical use.
• Legal Content & Template Development:
  • You draft, model, review, and update business contracts and other legal documents for use within SOVRA software and products.
  • You create reusable legal templates for the broader customer base and maintain existing content as product needs evolve.
• Product Quality & Maintenance:
  • You perform quality checks on software, legal content, and related services to identify issues before they affect customer use.
  • You maintain legal content within the product and support updates required as the customer base and market expand.
• Legal & Customer Partnership:
  • You work with lawyers and other team members on related legal-content work, bringing questions forward when legal interpretation requires additional guidance.
  • You build customer-service capability within the role by identifying ways to improve implementation support and the ongoing customer experience.

Qualifications

• You have a college diploma in a relevant field or equivalent practical experience.
• You have at least two years of experience as a legal assistant, legal technician, legal secretary, legal content editor, administrative technician, or in a related field.
• You have a general understanding of legal contracts and can work carefully with business contract content.
• You are proficient with Microsoft Office applications and comfortable learning technology used to create and maintain legal content.
• You communicate primarily in English and have a good working understanding of French for collaboration and source material.
• You can manage timelines, project work, and deliverables independently while maintaining accuracy and follow-through.
• We are not able to sponsor work visas or transfers at this time.

Requirements

• You enjoy turning detailed legal content into structured, usable materials that customers can work with confidently.
• You want a role that combines independent implementation ownership with close collaboration across legal, product, and customer work.
• You are interested in helping an established legal technology product reach customers in a new market and improving the experience as the program grows.

Benefits

• Comprehensive health and medical coverage.
• Paid time off.
• A structured learning and development program.
• Paid parental leave.
