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.

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.
