Senior Director, Legal Innovation (Corporate Legal)

About Us 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 As Sr. Director, Legal Innovation (Corporate Legal), you'll be a senior voice for Legora in the corporate and in-house legal community — representing the company in the field, advising legal departments on how to adopt AI well, and helping shape where the business of in-house legal is going. The role pairs public thought leadership (panels, forums, published analysis) with substantive project work, including building practical ROI frameworks for in-house legal teams alongside our Value Engineering function. It's a high-visibility, build-it role for someone with a strong point of view on the future of corporate legal. What You’ll Do Represent Legora across panels, industry forums, and the legal-innovation community, with a focus on in-house and corporate legal teams. Advise customers' innovation and knowledge teams on AI transformation — strategy, rollout, AI policy, and measures of success. Partner closely with the VP of Legal Innovation & Strategy and serve as a senior Legora voice across speaking, content, and executive advisory. Own special projects — most immediately, partnering with Value Engineering to build out ROI frameworks for in-house legal teams. Publish analysis that moves the market narrative. What You Bring 7+ years in a legal-innovation, legal-operations, outside-counsel-management, knowledge, or strategy role at a corporate legal team, top law firm, or legal-tech company. Genuine fluency in how legal organizations operate and make decisions — the economics and psychology of legal leadership, not just the tooling. Executive presence with GCs, CLOs, CIOs, and innovation leaders, and the ability to translate across legal, business, and technical audiences. A strong, demonstrated public point of view — through writing and conference speaking. What’s In It For You Global collaboration: Partner with teams and clients across Europe, APAC, and North America. Competitive package: Comprehensive salary, benefits, and tools for success.
