The Opportunity

We're a stealth-mode, YC-backed startup building AI-native legal services for fast-moving companies. Our AI handles 80% of the work β€” our lawyers deliver the final 20%. We're now hiring one of our first GTM hires in London. This is a rare ground-floor opportunity: build pipeline from scratch, work directly with the founders, and grow into a closing AE role within 9–18 months. If you want to get in early at a company reshaping the legal industry, this is it.

What You'll Do

  • Drive high-volume outbound prospecting (60%+ of the role) into in-house legal teams at venture-backed and mid-market companies
  • Run discovery calls and support customer onboardings alongside the founding team
  • Build and manage pipeline in CRM with accurate forecasting and clean handoffs
  • Partner with the founders on ICP refinement, messaging, and market feedback loops
  • Grow into a closing AE role within 9–18 months as the team scales

What We're Looking For

  • 1–3 years of GTM, SDR, BDR, or sales experience with proven outbound pipeline metrics (e.g. meetings booked per week/month)
  • Legal background required: a law degree (JD or equivalent) OR prior experience at a legal tech company.
  • Demonstrated ability to sell into or engage with lawyers and in-house legal teams
  • High EQ β€” genuinely sociable, likeable, positive, and credible with senior legal buyers
  • Based in London (on-site role)

Why Join Us

  • Clear AE promotion path within 9–18 months β€” not a vague promise, a structured plan
  • Work directly with the founders from day one
  • Competitive equity at an early stage
  • Shape the GTM playbook from scratch at a company with $9M in funding and real traction
  • Be part of a category-defining moment in legal AI
