  • Score each response against a standardized rubric we provide
  • Submit concise written feedback for every evaluation

Requirements

  • Strong command of UK law, especially commercial and contract matters
  • Sharp attention to detail and precise written English
  • Able to work independently to a rubric and to deadlines

Logistics
