About the role

We’re hiring a Head of Sales Enablement to build and lead our global enablement function from the ground up. This is a rare opportunity to shape a critical function at an important stage of growth.

  • Experience managing and developing enablement talent, alongside the ability to operate as a hands-on player-coach when needed
  • Strong product instincts, confidence running polished and outcome-oriented demos, and the ability to help sellers build credibility with sophisticated buyers
  • A data-informed, highly collaborative approach, with the judgment to work effectively across Product, Engineering, Marketing, and Sales
  • Clear communication, high ownership, and a bias toward action in fast-moving environments
More about this role

New York

Wordsmith is building the legal operations platform for in-house teams, and we are growing fast.

We believe in-house legal is becoming one of the most important functions in the AI era. Every business is moving faster, but legal work is still too often scattered across inboxes, chats, documents, and disconnected systems.

Wordsmith brings that work into one system. Requests come in from across the business, AI agents handle the routine, lawyers stay in control where judgment matters, and every step is captured as work happens.

We are built for in-house legal, not law firms. Our goal is to help legal teams move faster, reduce unnecessary external counsel spend, and become a function the business can run with.

More than 500 companies, including Financial Times, Safelite, Trip.com, Canva, Starling, and Sage, use Wordsmith. Backed by $100M from Index Ventures, General Catalyst, Highland Europe, and others, we are building one of the defining companies in legal AI.
