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.
ABOUT THE TEAM
The IT and AI Enablement function exists to make Legora itself run as well as the product we sell: secure, automated, and compounding over time. Workplace Technology is the newest part of that function, and you’ll build it: a Lead in every major office, a shared standard for how a Legora site works, and an AI-native service desk doing the routing and the repetitive work so small on-site teams can run large sites.
The footprint is growing fast — roughly 90 people in 3 offices to over 300 in 8 in about a year — and where we open next, the function you’ve built shows up with it. You’re the technology counterpart to Workplace, reporting to the CIO.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING
- Ensure that Legora’s offices are running to standard — hardware, AV and conferencing, network, physical-security infrastructure, and the day-one onboarding experience.
- Own the function’s budget and vendor framework globally: forecast with Finance, standardize vendors and contracts, and feed the site budgets that Workplace owns — a budget Finance trusts and a partnership Workplace plans buildouts with by default.
- Land active buildouts with their technology scope clean — AV, network, and badge / camera / cabling commissioning inside Workplace’s fit-outs, from kickoff to rooms that work on day one.
- Work with Information Security on access, network, and device controls, with IT Systems on the network spine and endpoint estate, and with People on onboarding.
- Run the function on Legora’s shared, AI-native service desk — common SLAs across every site, automated routing, and a standing rule that anything a site does twice gets automated. Staffing follows the same logic: automation first, then a Lead, then their team.
WHO YOU ARE
- 10+ years in IT / workplace technology, AV, or facilities-adjacent technical operations, including several years of multi-site or global responsibility and managing managers or senior ICs. To be direct: if you run one site today, our Workplace Technology Lead openings are the right fit; this role is for someone who has already run the function across several.
- You’ve built a function before: set the standards, hired the team, and been accountable for the result across continents, with the async habits that make distributed teams work.
- Credible in the room and on the floor. You can debug a meeting room and hold a budget conversation with Finance in the same day.
- A strong partner to Workplace, Security, IT, People, and Finance, with the judgment to know when to enforce one global way and when to let a site adapt.
- You reach for automation before headcount — you’ve turned repetitive support work into workflows, and you’re comfortable making AI tooling part of how a…
