• Deep understanding of cross-functional collaboration, with the credibility to influence senior stakeholders and the agility to engage with teams across all levels of the business and run PMO level leadership, at times.
• Experience in SaaS, legal tech, or technology-enabled services preferred.
  
  

• Strategic Impact – You will be at the center of shaping the company’s trajectory and delivering tangible enterprise value.
• Global Scale – Work in a truly international environment with some of the most innovative minds in legal tech.
• Executive Visibility – Partner directly with the C-suite and influence decision-making at the highest levels.
