Vable Want A Legal Information Professional (UK)

Vable is looking to hire an information professional who wants to combine their strong research skills with analysis and problem-solving in our small and entrepreneurial organisation.

This newly created role will work to enable clients to reap even greater benefits from Vable’s service offering, and help them to achieve the potential of our powerful current awareness platform. You love dealing directly with clients and co-operating widely within the organisation you work for. Effectively, you will act as a “power user” of the platform internally, and topics and newsletters which clients would like to access will be managed and curated by you. The Information Professional will understand the Vable platform at a very detailed level, and use his/ her expertise to manipulate and curate data and content to our clients’ specification by means of taxonomies, Boolean searches and categorisation of different types of information.

Thanks to your bridging function between client contacts and our support, data and product teams, you will constantly fine-tune and improve Vable’s content offering. As you develop in the role, your own knowledge and awareness of Vable’s more intricate functions will grow alongside your clients’, and you will enjoy an ever-improving experience of the Vable platform.

On a day-to-day basis, you will have your finger on the pulse of clients’ needs, and have an easy dialogue with client contacts. Working with the customer support and production teams to resolve client requests and issues, you will be measured by our clients’ satisfaction with the Vable platform.

Vable is at an exciting point of its journey, and we expect to continuously launch new services and add-ons to our platform. You will have the opportunity to become a key player in the development and roll-out of these services, and make them your own.
