litigation @99porkypig in TransportationJob Description
Strengths:
- Clear Focus: The description clearly emphasizes debt management and the legal strategies associated with it.
- Detailed Responsibilities: The “Key Responsibilities” section provides a good overview of the day-to-day tasks.
- Experience Requirements: The “Qualifications and Skills” section clearly states the required experience and skills.
- Emphasis on Core Values: The initial section highlighting “Perseverance, Passion and Commitment,” “Obsession with high quality results,” and “Resilience and Adaptability” is a good way to set the tone for the type of candidate they are looking for.
- Industry Specifics: The role mentions specific industry experience (banks/NBFCs/ARCs) which is very important.
Areas for Improvement:
- Quantifiable Metrics:
- Consider adding quantifiable metrics to the “Key Responsibilities” section. For example, instead of just “Management of legal disputes,” you could add “Manage a portfolio of X number of legal disputes related to debt recovery.” or “reduce the average time of resolution of debt related disputes by Y%.”
- This allows candidates to understand the scope and impact of the role more effectively.
- Specific Legal Areas:
- While the description mentions “relevant laws and regulations in India,” it could be more specific. Mentioning key legislation like the SARFAESI Act, IBC, CPC, etc., would be beneficial.
- Technology Proficiency:
- In today’s legal environment, proficiency with legal tech tools (e.g., e-discovery platforms, case management software) is essential. Mentioning this would be helpful.
- Team Management:
- If the role involves managing a team, explicitly state this in the description. Mention the size and scope of the team.
- Clarity on “Evolving Legal Strategies”:
- While the responsibility is mentioned, there could be expansion on what “evolving” means. Is it about process automation? Leveraging new tech? Adapting to regulatory changes? Clarifying this helps create more clear expectations.
- Company Culture and Growth:
- While core values are mentioned. Briefly detailing the company culture and growth opportunities can enhance the appeal of the job.
- More Detailed Explanation of “External Engagement”
- Expand on what this means in this context. Is it primarily with external lawyers? Or are there other government or industry bodies that the potential employee would need to build a relationship with?
- More precise title, if needed.
- Would “Lead Counsel, Debt Management” or “Head of Debt Recovery Litigation” provide a more accurate and appealing title?
Revised Example of a Key Responsibility:
- Instead of: “Management of legal disputes. Responsible for managing and resolving legal disputes and litigation cases related to debt management/ debt recovery, including coordinating with external legal counsel when necessary.”
- Use: “Manage and resolve a portfolio of X legal disputes, leveraging strong knowledge of SARFAESI Act, IBC, and CPC. Reduce the average case resolution time by Y% and ensure effective coordination with external legal counsel.”
