• Representing the company externally at industry events, in partnership conversations, and across the legal, HR, and business communities
• Reporting to senior leadership and contribute to business planning and growth targets
• Managing a dynamic team beyond the legal scope including data scientists, marketing interns, and the like
You are the ideal candidate if you have/ are:

• An entrepreneurial mindset, the willingness to dive in head first to a new area beyond the scope of legal practice
• A science or engineering graduate degree is an asset
• Experience in legal technology or operations would be an asset
• Prior management experience and experience with technology projects would be an asset
This is an active opening for a current role.
The salary is expected to be $125,000. Total compensation can include incentives based on participation in the company's growth.
AI may be used only for initial resume review. All other decisions are human-made.
We appreciate all candidates who take time to apply, however, only candidates with the requisite experience will be contacted.
