Solutions Design Associate Axiom Law
Axiom, a modern alternative to the traditional law firm, is the largest and fastest growing provider of managed legal services to F500 companies. We're a new category of firm that applies the best practices from other industries and a better business model to help clients do legal work intelligently. Our streamlined cost-structure and deep expertise in the business of law help General Counsel solve problems and manage their departments more effectively.
Managed Services
Axiom?s most strategic and fastest growing line of business is our Managed Services division. At the heart of Axiom?s innovation agenda, Managed Services is responsible for conceptualizing, designing, and implementing Axiom?s complex project and outsourcing solutions. Unlike Management Consulting firms, the Managed Services team at Axiom is charged with building, implementing, and executing ? not just advising. This critical distinction is what has attracted an incredibly talented team made up of partners and consultants from leading strategy consulting firms (McKinsey, BCG), pioneers from the world of Business Process Outsourcing (BPO), and experts in cutting edge technologies and systems.
Staffed with the most talented team in the legal industry, Managed Services partners with our F500 clients to identify legal processes and activities that can be effectively outsourced to Axiom.
