About the role
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?
What you'll do
Revenue growth depends on having the right commercial talent in place — fast, and at a high bar. As our People Enablement Partner for Growth, you will own that directly. You are not a support function for the GTM team. 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 GTM and revenue-generating functions in the UK, while also building the People infrastructure that enables those teams to perform, iterate, and scale. You will work closely with founders and senior commercial leaders — trusted to make consequential decisions on hiring, team composition, and performance enablement.
Specifically, you will
Own full-cycle recruitment across the UK, with a primary focus on GTM, commercial, and strategic roles — partnering with hiring managers to define role scope, success profiles, and hiring strategies tied directly to revenue outcomes.
Build and maintain proactive, high-quality pipelines for critical and future commercial hires — so we're never starting from zero when a priority opens.
Run structured, data-driven hiring processes that hold a high bar on quality without sacrificing speed or fairness.
Drive an exceptional candidate experience from first touch through onboarding — how we hire reflects who we are.
Act as a genuine thought partner on org design, team structure, and hiring plans — particularly within GTM functions — supporting headcount planning, workforce allocation, and prioritisation for the UK team.
Partner on core People initiatives including performance management cadences, feedback systems, and calibration — helping build the infrastructure that enables high performance and fast iteration.
Contribute to compensation and progression frameworks for GTM roles, ensuring we stay competitive and internally consistent as we scale.
What you bring
You understand that hiring decisions are business decisions — and you hold yourself accountable to the same commercial outcomes as the teams you hire for. You're hands-on, commercially sharp, and trusted by founders and senior GTM leaders to shape teams that win.
We're looking for
5+ years in talent acquisition or People roles in a high-growth, commercial environment — startup, scale-up, or VC-backed company.
A proven track record of hiring high-performing GTM and commercial talent across Sales, Business Development, Marketing, and Partnerships — you know the profile and you hold the bar.
Strong commercial acumen — you understand how hiring decisions affect revenue, growth, and market expansion, and you use that lens to prioritise and advise.
Experience partnering with senior stakeholders on hiring strategy, org design, and team build-out — not just executing briefs, but shaping them.
The ability to balance hands-on execution with strategic thinking — you can run multiple complex searches simultaneously and still see the bigger picture.
A track record of building or meaningfully improving scalable hiring or People systems — you leave things better than you found them.
Comfortable in ambiguity with a strong bias toward action — you build 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.
