About Us

Legora is on a mission: to redefine how legal work gets done. From the very start we have been very clear about the fact that we are not building a solution for lawyers, we are building it with them, because it is the only way to make sure it gets done the right way; working side-by-side every step of the way.

Our AI-native workspace empowers legal professionals not just to work faster - but to ask better questions, unlock new insights. Every day, we push the boundaries of legal tech to make complex processes smarter, faster, and more human. From thousands of documents analysed in minutes to intelligent workflows designed in collaboration with leading practices, we’re turning possibility into reality.

Today we are trusted by global firms like Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Bird & Bird and Linklaters in over 40 countries, but we have no plans on stopping here. We ship fast, we iterate effectively, and we scale rapidly - not by accident, but by design.

When you join Legora, you become part of a team that believes "good enough" isn’t good enough and that the way to win is together, by empowering lawyers to do their best work with technology that truly understands them. If you’re excited by building from first principles, working with exceptional people, and accelerating change in a high-stakes, high-impact domain—then this is the moment and the place.

We’re not just shaping the future of legal tech — we’re defining it. Ready to join us in building the intelligent future of law?

The role

As a Legal Operations Specialist in Legora’s Stockholm office, you will play a central role in building and scaling the operational infrastructure of one of the fastest-growing legal technology companies globally. You will work at the intersection of legal, technology, and operations — owning the systems, workflows, and knowledge architecture that enable Legora's legal function and broader organisation to operate at scale. A core part of this role is building internal knowledge databases and driving integrations that unlock the full value of Legora's own platform within our organisation.

This role requires a high degree of independence, strong systems thinking, and the ability to drive cross-functional change across multiple teams and time zones. You will partner closely with Legal, People, Finance, RevOps, Product, and Customer Success, becoming an integral part of how Legora operationalises its legal and commercial knowledge. You will report to the General Counsel, based at our Stockholm headquarters.

Legora’s legal function is a forward-deployed, AI-first team working across multiple jurisdictions and legal disciplines. We act as trusted partners to the business, with particular focus on product development, operations, and commercial initiatives. As a legal technology company, we hold ourselves to the highest standard when it comes to our own legal operations — and we expect this role to help us lead by example. Beyond strong operational judgment, we value curiosity, problem-solving, and a proactive mindset.

What you will be doing

• Own the design and build-out of Legora's internal legal knowledge databases, ensuring that contracts, policies, playbooks, and institutional knowledge are structured, searchable, and organized.
• Drive integrations between Legora's own platform and internal systems (CLM, CRM, HRIS, finance tools) to maximise the value Legora derives from its own product and ensure seamless data flows across the organisation.
• Establish and maintain structured contract management infrastructure — including metadata schemas, parent-child contract linking, deduplication standards, and a deviation/exception registry for non-standard terms.
• Design and implement cross-functional handoff protocols so that relevant contract terms, exceptions, and commitments automatically surface to Finance, RevOps, Product, and Customer Success at the point of execution.
• Partner with the Legal, People, and Operations teams to identify process bottlenecks, drive continuous improvement, and ensure legal operations practices reflect Legora's standards and values.
• Contribute to governance, compliance, and risk mitigation initiatives, ensuring that operational infrastructure supports Legora's obligations as it scales internationally.

Who you are

• 2-5 years of experience in legal operations, contract management, or a related operational role within a law firm or in-house legal team.
• Proficiency in both spoken and written English. Additional European language skills are meritorious.
• Deep, granular understanding of technology stacks, APIs, data architecture, and system interoperability. Hands‑on experience implementing, configuring, or building legal technology tools, knowledge management systems, or integration layers is essential.
• Demonstrable experience in legal operations, legal technology, or a related technical‑operational field. A relevant degree (e.g., law, computer science, engineering, or information systems) is meritorious but not required. Prior experience in knowledge management teams or in supporting legal professionals is particularly valued.
• Demonstrated ability to drive cross-functional change and influence senior stakeholders across Legal, Finance, Product, and Operations.
• Experience in high‑growth, international, or technology‑driven organisations is highly valued.
• You are operationally minded and solutions‑oriented — you focus on building infrastructure that enables the business while appropriately managing risk.
• You communicate complex operational and legal concepts clearly and translate them into structured, actionable processes.
• You thrive in a fast‑paced, dynamic, entrepreneurial environment and are comfortable operating with autonomy and ambiguity.
• A deep technical and genuine excitement about building with technology is meritorious. You are likely not content to be a consumer of tools — you want to get under the hood, write code where needed, and architect systems that push the boundaries of what a best‑in‑class legal operations function looks like. A keen interest in AI, data infrastructure, and Legora's own platform is essential.
