Not built for lawyers, built with them. We work alongside the world’s best legal teams, who expect excellence, precision, and speed, and we hold ourselves to the same bar. Our AI-native workspace lets legal professionals move faster, think more clearly, and operate with sharper precision. By analysing thousands of documents in minutes and powering end-to-end workflows, we cut through complexity, teams can focus on what matters: judgment, strategy, and outcomes. 2,100+ customers across 80+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $200M+ in ARR, with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI, Graceview, Cadastral, and Wexler. We partner with world-class performers: including Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees, Ludvig Åberg (and his caddie), and campaigns featuring Jude Law. Joining Legora means three things. - We lean in: ownership over titles, outcomes over intentions. - We fight for excellence: high standards, direct, ego-free feedback. - We grow together: as a team and with our customers. Mission before ego. Everyone contributes. No one coasts. If you’re driven by impact, pace, and raising the bar. This is the place. ## The Role Legora has grown from 40 to more than 600 people in 18 months. During that time, we reached $100M ARR, tripled our valuation in five months, and continued expanding into new markets around the world. Our Talent Acquisition function is now entering its next chapter. The processes, standards, and hiring approach that support our next phase of growth are being built today, which you’ll play a significant part in. You'll work closely with senior leaders from day one and play a key role in shaping how Legora hires and scales. ## What you’ll do Revenue growth depends on having the right commercial talent in place, fast, and at a high bar. As a Senior Talent Partner, you will own that directly for the APAC region. You are not a support function for the Go To Market (GTM) teams. You are a commercial operator in your own right, accountable for the quality and velocity of the people who drive Legora's growth. You will own end-to-end hiring across mostly GTM + some Corporate roles in the APAC region, working closely with senior leaders who are genuinely invested in recruiting, trusted to make high-impact decisions on hiring and team composition. Specifically, you will: - Own full-cycle recruitment across APAC, partnering closely with hiring managers to define role scope, success profiles, and hiring strategies aligned to business priorities. - Help shape how Talent operates at Legora, contributing beyond hiring to process design, programs, tooling, and broader People initiatives. - Build and nurture proactive talent pipelines for critical and future hiring needs, ensuring we stay ahead of demand rather than reacting to it. - Run structured, data-informed hiring processes that balance quality, pace, and consistency while maintaining a high bar for talent. - Deliver an exceptional candidate experience from first conversation through to offer, acting as a trusted and credible ambassador for Legora throughout. ## What you bring You understand that hiring decisions are business decisions, and you hold yourself accountable to the same outcomes as the teams you hire for. You're hands-on, sharp, and trusted by senior leaders to shape teams that win. We're looking for: - 5+ years in talent acquisition in a high-growth environment, startup, scaleup, or VC-backed company, with meaningful depth hiring non-technical talent. - A proven track record hiring high-performing talent across the seniority levels that matter most at this stage of growth. - Genuine commercial acumen. You understand OTE structures, quota attainment, and how a hire affects revenue trajectory, and you use that fluency to advise hiring managers and close exceptional candidates. - Experience partnering with senior stakeholders on hiring strategy and team build-out, not just executing briefs, but shaping them. - The ability to run multiple complex searches without losing quality or pace. - Comfortable in ambiguity with a bias toward action. You build a structure where none exists and move without waiting for perfect conditions. - Collaborative but direct. You influence and challenge senior stakeholders when needed, and you drive decisions rather than defer them. Legora is an Equal Opportunity Employer At Legora, we believe great teams are built on diversity of thought and experience. We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and committed to creating an inclusive, high-performance culture where everyone can do their best work. We welcome people of all backgrounds and don’t discriminate based on race, color, religion, national origin, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law. ## About Legora ## Company Overview - **One-liner**: Legora builds a collaborative AI workspace that empowers legal professionals to review, draft, research, and advise with greater speed and precision. - **Entity Type**: Private (Series D; total funding $865.6M) - **Headquarters**: Stockholm, Sweden - **Founded**: 2023 - **Founders**: Max Junestrand (Co-founder & CEO) ## Core Business - **Primary industry**: Legal Technology (Legal AI) - **Target customers**: Law firms and in-house legal teams (B2B/Enterprise) - **Mission or purpose statement**: "To empower exceptional lawyers" by building the world's first truly collaborative AI for legal work [legora.com/about]. ## Products & Services - **Legora aOS (Agentic Operating System)**: A single platform that connects information, communication, and execution of legal work.
