Legora is redefining how legal work gets done. 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.
1,000+ customers across 50+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $100M+ in ARR, with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI and Graceview.
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's Talent function is entering its next chapter. The processes, standards, and hiring approach that will carry us through our most ambitious period of growth are being built now, and technical hiring sits at the centre of that.
You'll report into the VP of Talent and work directly with the EPD (Engineering, Product & Design leadership teams across our hubs in Stockholm, New York, and London. Engineering alone is targeting 240 hires by year end, senior ICs and engineering leaders across four markets, each at a different stage of maturity.
You'll build and lead a team of Tech Talent Partners and managers, shaping how EPD hiring gets done globally. You won't carry reqs. You will be accountable for everything the function produces.
What you'll do
Lead and develop a team of Tech Talent Partners and managers across Stockholm, London, and New York. The function is growing and the structure, standards, and team capability need to scale with it.
Work directly with the CTO and EPD leadership on hiring strategy and workforce planning. That means shaping how we think about technical hiring, not waiting to be handed a brief.
Build the reporting, pipeline visibility, and performance metrics that give the team and its stakeholders a consistent picture of where things stand. Four markets, each moving at a different pace, need a clear view across all of them.
Drive quality and consistency across Stockholm, New York, and London. Each market has its own dynamics and the approach has to reflect that.
Own the bar for senior technical hiring. The priority is senior ICs and leaders in markets where the talent pool is thin. You'll need a sharp view of what excellent looks like at each level and the credibility to hold that standard when searches get difficult.
Partner with employer brand and talent operations on the infrastructure, messaging, and candidate experience that a company at this stage of growth needs to attract and close the best technical talent.
What you bring
You've led technical recruiting at a company growing fast enough that the hiring plan changed every quarter. You've built trust with a CTO, shaped a workforce plan, and managed managers who were themselves running growing teams. You know the difference between a function that's filling roles and one that's driving the business forward.
We're looking for:
10+ years in talent acquisition, with significant time leading technical recruiting at high-growth, VC-backed companies. Pre-IPO or Series C and beyond is the profile that tends to work here. Big tech experience alone won't translate.
Proven experience managing managers, not just ICs. You develop recruiting leaders, hold them to outcomes, and build a team culture that maintains a high bar under pressure.
A track record of genuine strategic partnership with technical leadership. You've contributed to roadmap conversations, pushed back on hiring timelines that weren't grounded in reality, and built credibility with CTOs by knowing your craft as well as they know theirs.
Multi-market experience across Europe and North America. You understand how candidate markets in Stockholm, London, and New York actually differ, not just in notice periods but in sourcing strategy, talent density, and what it takes to close.
Experience building data visibility where it doesn't fully exist. Dashboards, pipeline reporting, capacity modelling: you've done this before and you know what good looks like.
A hiring bar that doesn't move under pressure. When a search gets hard, you change the approach, not the standard.
