About BEC Legal Systems
BEC Legal Systems has served the legal community for decades, evolving from its roots in Cincinnati, Ohio into a trusted provider of enterprise software for law firms and corporate legal departments nationwide. Our BEC CoreRelate Framework - including MatterLink, Docket Enterprise, LegalBar, and Assemble-It - helps legal teams manage attorney calendars, track matters, and automate document creation directly within the Microsoft Office environment they already rely on.
Our clients stay with us because our team knows their firms, their workflows, and their deadlines. As we modernize our support organization - new tooling, a real knowledge base, and AI woven into how the work gets done - we are hiring a leader to own that function and make responsiveness a competitive advantage.
About the Role
As Implementation Manager, you will own the day-to-day management and implementation of BEC Legal Systems suite of products and upgrades from kickoff through go-live. You will consult directly with clients to understand their unique business needs, design and configure solutions that meet those needs, and deliver the training that enables our client base to fully adopt our software.
This is a hands-on, client-facing role that combines project management, software configuration, and training delivery. You will work closely with internal teams – R&D, QA, Support, and Sales – to ensure every implementation is delivered in line with customer expectations, and you will travel to client sites and other locations as needed.
Key Responsibilities
Cross-Functional Collaboration: Establish close working relationships with all internal teams to ensure all aspects of each project are well managed and delivered in line with customer expectations.
Business Practice Consultation: Work with clients to understand and explore their current business practices, helping to identify and form best practices that can be implemented during the software installation or conversion.
Implementation Delivery: Deliver responsive implementations of BEC's products in a timely manner, from initial configuration through go-live.
Client Education: Educate clients on proper software configuration, application integrations, and data entry so they can fully leverage the software's capabilities.
Training Delivery: Conduct onsite and web-based training sessions for client teams.
Post-Go-Live Support: Assist clients during implementation and post-go-live, including reporting of issues and enhancement requests.
Product Expertise: Provide product use expertise to internal R&D and QA teams, informing product direction and quality.
Internal Training: Assist with training of the Company's employees when needed.
Helpdesk Support: Provide Helpdesk support when needed.
Core Competencies
Legal workflow fluency: Bring a working understanding of how our clients use BEC and use it to interpret requests, process severity, and represent the client’s reality. Deeply understands the needs of a docketing team, paralegal or legal assistant, and can earn the trust of our user base by speaking to their reality.
Presentation and Communication Skills: Communicates clearly and confidently in front of clients, whether delivering training or walking through a proposed solution. Writes and speaks clearly and professionally to sophisticated legal-industry clients, particularly in challenging situations.
Process Management: Manages the many moving pieces of an implementation – configuration, training, data, and timelines – to a successful, on-schedule go-live.
Problem Solving: Diagnoses client needs and implementation issues methodically, and finds workable solutions under real-world constraints.
Innovation Management: Brings creativity to configuring the software to fit each client's unique workflows, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach.
Customer Focus: Keeps the client's needs and experience at the center of every implementation decision.
Learning on the Fly: Picks up new product functionality, client environments, and edge cases quickly, and adapts on the spot.
Standing Alone: Works independently and confidently at client sites and in situations without immediate support.
Patience: Remains calm and supportive while guiding clients – including less technical users – through new software and changing processes.
AI Fluency and Judgment: Uses generative AI tools to improve speed and quality of support work, and applies the judgment to know where AI output needs verification before a client sees it.
Adaptability and Resourcefulness: Operates effectively in a lean, close-knit organization, balancing daily delivery with building in a resource-constrained environment.
Success Metrics: First 6 & 12 Months
First 6 Months
Complete onboarding into BEC's product suite (MatterLink, Docket Enterprise, LegalBar, Assemble-It, CoreRelate Cloud, and CoreRespond) and shadow or co-lead implementations across the core products.

Deliver onsite and web-based training sessions directly to clients with confidence and positive client feedback.

First 12 Months
Consistently deliver responsive, on-time implementations across an established client caseload.
Serve as a go-to product expert for internal R&D and QA teams, with input reflected in product improvements.
Contribute to internal training of Company employees, extending product and implementation expertise beyond the immediate team.
Build a track record of strong post-go-live client outcomes, reflected in client feedback and reduced escalations.
Take on Helpdesk support coverage as needed, without disruption to implementation workload.
