What does the day look like?
Most days start with email, contract mark-ups, and editing in Microsoft Office; e-signature platforms and contract-management systems are part of the routine. Roughly 60–75% of the day is this kind of work: meetings with commercial teams, compliance checklists, and turning law into language managers can use. Courtroom advocacy is only about 5–15% for most in-house roles. The rest goes to project work, training, and coordinating outside law firms.
Hours are standard office time — not shift work. Deal deadlines can run into the evening; in regulated sectors like banking or tech you may be on call for incidents. Night work is rare and usually tied to deal closings or crises.
