About the role

Strategic Initiatives takes on some of Legora’s most important cross-functional challenges, helping the company deliver major changes and build capabilities as it grows. You’ll lead the delivery of complex change programs that span business teams, processes and technology. This means understanding what the business needs, getting deep enough into the technical detail to make sound recommendations, and bringing people together to turn decisions into working solutions. Found on 1752vc Careers, the job board for startup and VC roles.

What they're looking for

  • The ability to build trust and influence senior stakeholders without relying on formal authority, including navigating disagreement and holding difficult conversations
  • A practical, hands-on approach. You bring structure to ambiguity, take ownership of outcomes and adapt your approach to what the problem requires
  • Experience defining success measures and using evidence to assess whether a change has delivered its intended value
