Job description

This is a people leadership role first: hiring, coaching and ramping a team of enterprise account executives who sell complex software to large organisations. A strong candidate brings a record of closing large deals, managing long multi stakeholder buying cycles, and running disciplined forecasting and pipeline reviews. The posting also stresses ownership in a fast moving setting where the playbook is still being written.

How it fits the AI era

The product sells AI agents that handle routine legal requests while lawyers keep judgment calls, so the sales work centres on helping buyers trust and adopt that shift. Much of the role stays human: building champions, aligning Legal, Finance, Security, IT and Procurement, and coaching a team through deals that can run six to twelve months. AI may sharpen forecasting and deal insight, but the judgment and relationships remain with the manager.

How it builds AI experience

Selling a legal AI platform to in house teams builds practical understanding of where agents fit into legal operations and how buyers weigh control and risk. Candidates can prepare by learning how in house legal work flows across requests, documents and systems, and by practising how to explain agent assisted review in plain terms. Coaching a team to handle questions about control and judgement matters more than technical depth.

Worth showing

• Team coaching and development
• Complex stakeholder navigation
• Hiring and ramping reps
