You will support the customer success team in their client interactions and developing new use cases. Together with the customer, you plan and manage complex co-development projects from planning to implementation. • Business Support: You will support our Sales team by conducting demos and negotiating contracts. • Professional Services Development: Strategically setup and further develop our professional services to ensure clients make the maximum utility out of the Legartis solution. Your profile We are seeking a proactive and decisive leader who thrives at the intersection of legal technology and customer strategy. • You hold a Master’s degree in Law or equivalent (any additional education or the admission to the bar is a plus). • You have profound post-qualification experience in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating complex commercial contracts. • You have proven experience in advising clients in the review of contracts and are able to build strong client relationships. • You have a track record of successfully leading teams and collaborating with multi stakeholders. • You’re experienced in supporting Sales teams by conducting demos and negotiating contracts. • You’re experienced in supporting Customer Success teams by helping customers, identifying upsell opportunities and new use cases. • You’re highly interested in current legal trends involving AI, machine learning, and prompting with GenAI solutions. • You have experience in planning, managing, and executing complex projects and are able to manage strategic priorities in a fast-paced environment while maintaining a calm presence. • You have excellent (legal) communication and writing skills in German and English (any further language such as French is a plus). • You’re a flexible individual with an entrepreneurial mindset and high organizational skills, who’s not afraid to make mistakes and brings their positive, candid attitude to the table.

Your work directly influences how thousands of legal professionals will operate in the future. • The Collaborative Way: We don't have "departments" that work in silos. You will work in a high-trust environment where lawyers, engineers, and product builders solve problems side-by-side. • True Ownership: We believe that those who build the company should own the company. You will receive a competitive salary and employee stock options (ESOP), making you a true shareholder in our success. • Growth & Agility: We are an agile organization where the best argument wins, not the highest job title. You will have the autonomy to drive your own projects and grow faster than you would in a traditional corporate structure. • Work-Life-Integration: Whether in our central offices (Zurich/Leipzig) or working remotely within Germany – we offer a flexible hybrid setup that fits your life. • Team Culture: We celebrate our wins and our learnings.
