Description du poste

What you'll be doing

• Acting as a thought partner to General Counsels, Legal Operations leaders, and in‑house teams - building trusted relationships, addressing tricky pain points, and identifying high‑value opportunities for them to scale their use of Legora across their legal function.
• Working together with Go To Market and Engagement in taking full ownership of client relationships - from running pilots with key business units, to onboarding new team members, and ultimately guiding department‑wide adoption across corporate legal teams.
• Be the voice of in‑house users inside Legora - sharing insights from legal ops teams, commercial lawyers, and compliance functions that directly inform product development, roadmap priorities, and strategic direction.
• Delivering clear, confident product demos and training that bring the power of our platform to life - whether you're presenting to a GC, rolling out to regional teams, or training legal ops professionals.
• Documenting best practices from leading legal departments, contribute to the development of scalable playbooks, and help shape how we grow this function globally.
• Confidently helping in‑house teams navigate one of the biggest shifts in how corporate legal operates - from evaluating the ROI and efficiency gains of AI to clearly mapping how AI will impact different functions, from contract management to regulatory compliance.

What you bring

• Have a background in law, with experience in an in‑house legal team or corporate legal department - ideally with exposure to legal operations, process improvement, or technology implementation.
• Are tech‑curious and product‑savvy. Not necessarily a coder, but passionate about navigating technical conversations, especially around generative AI, technology implementation, innovation and productivity.
• Communicate clearly and confidently with diverse stakeholders, from General Counsels to business leaders, and from lawyers to engineers. Translating across disciplines is second nature to you.
• Bring structure to ambiguity and energy to complexity; and enjoy being the calm, credible presence in a fast‑moving environment.
• Understand how to evaluate and improve existing processes as a direct result of new and emerging technologies - whether that's streamlining contract workflows, improving matter management, or enhancing compliance processes.
• Are proactive, self‑directed, and comfortable juggling multiple client relationships at once.
• Care deeply about quality, but don't get stuck in perfectionism - you get things done, and you make them better over time.
• Understand the commercial realities of in‑house life: doing more with limited resources, demonstrating value to the business, balancing risk and commercial objectives, and being a strategic partner rather than just a cost centre.

A few more things

We're a fast‑growing company with bold ambitions, so you'll be joining at a time when things are moving quickly — in the best possible way. You'll have a lot of autonomy, a lot of responsibility, and the chance to genuinely shape how this function evolves. Everyone here has a founder‑mentality.
