About us:

Legora is working to empower lawyers and automate legal work. Our approach is to enable the lawyer of the future: a human-AI lawyer who's an order of magnitude more effective than a team of conventional legal professionals. The human-AI lawyer will iterate at the speed of their judgment, even in the most complex legal scenarios, and will out-smart and out-deliver the best pure AI system.

You are joining an early-stage scale-up with exceptional product-market fit that thousands of lawyers use daily at global institutions such as Bird&Bird, Mannheimer Swartling, and Heineken. Backed by $37M in funding from top investors like Benchmark, Redpoint, and Y Combinator, Legora is a group of exceptional engineers, lawyers, and doers. Here, you will have infinite room to grow and rethink how truly worthwhile work gets done.

The role:

We are seeking an analytical and well-versed Senior Controller to join our finance team in building a multientity, fast-growing scale-up. The Senior Controller will be responsible for preparing financial reports and analyzing financial data to support decision-making and business growth.

The ideal candidate will be instrumental in driving efficiency across financial operations and collaborating with cross-functional teams to ensure Legora's financial results are delivered with high quality to stakeholders on time.

  • Financial Management & Reporting:

    • Oversee the consolidation and preparation of accurate and timely financial statements and other necessary internal and external stakeholder reports.

    • Provide detailed financial analysis and reports to senior management, highlighting key trends and financial performance metrics.

  • Treasury/Cash Flow Management:

    • Optimize cash flow efficiency and mitigate financial risks across Legora's group entities.

  • Other ad-hoc:

    • Ensure adherence to financial regulations, tax laws, and company policies.

    • Mentor and develop the accountant, fostering a culture of continuous improvement, professional growth, and shared success.

    • Assist in Legora's global expansion activities, ensuring smooth onboarding of new market entries.

    • Manage relationships with external stakeholders such as auditors, tax advisors, and regulatory bodies, ensuring compliance with all statutory obligations.

You ensure ethical financial practices are upheld within the organization, promoting accountability and adherence to financial laws and standards.

  • Autonomous: Although constantly working in a team, we believe in self-leadership and ownership You value feedback, take initiative without needing direction, and focus on outcomes. You are not afraid to try new things and learn from your mistakes rather than play it safe.
