About SeedLegals We're the leading provider of automated legal solutions for startups in the UK, with offices in London and Paris, and a team in Ireland. We believe entrepreneurship should be accessible to everyone. Since we launched in 2016, we've served more than 50,000 startups who have collectively raised more than £2 billion on our platform. We've changed how early-stage companies fundraise, reward their teams and scale their businesses, forever. Our values are key to our success; here at SeedLegals, we: Invest and trust in each other; Are committed to a growth mindset; Embrace diversity and cultivate inclusion; And are driven by customer success. About the Legal Team We are an international team of around 17 people, with team members in each of our key locations. Unlike other in-house roles, at SeedLegals, our lawyers are right in the middle of our products - helping to shape (at scale) the way in which companies raise money. In London we are split into three teams: GC, Legal Product and Advisory (including VC Advisory and our GCaaS team). Whilst each team has a clear remit, we work collaboratively to continuously improve our products, deliver value to our customers and insulate the business from all the typical risks that high-growth tech companies face. SeedLegals offers its lawyers the chance to work in a variety of roles, all of which have a genuine and realisable impact on our revenue and growth - whilst we sell automated solutions, it is our outstanding team behind the scenes that create, maintain and support our platform products. We are committed to continuous learning and development as a business and as a legal team: we have arrangements in place with leading tech law firms to place our team members on secondment so that they can keep current with market trends and continue building their network, a variety of on-line learning tools, a partnership with the BARBRI, who deliver ongoing training and support to our team at all levels from SQE through to practical and management skills and, most importantly, we learn from each other in a psychologically safe space in which no idea is too outrageous to be given air time. Our global team all contribute to this learning environment, sharing ideas and best practice. About the Role In 2023 SeedLegals launched a new service to augment our platform offering for our customers: General Counsel as a Service (GCaaS). We recognised that, as our customers grow their businesses, they start to generate recurring legal needs which go beyond the bounds of our platform - this could be commercial contract negotiations, employment matters, IP or data protection issues. The concept is simple: the customer pays for an annual subscription and gains access to one of our fantastic lawyers who will be on hand for a defined number of hours throughout the year. Our lawyers embed within the customer's business and deliver support and advice to help them scale. You will work in the Advisory Team, alongside some truly talented lawyers, providing direct advice and support to our GCaaS customers as though you were their very own GC. You'll work with many of the UK's most innovative companies and, perhaps most excitingly, you will help us shape the strategy for this new service and be at the forefront of an exciting and successful business line. When you're not working with clients or on strategy, you'll have the opportunity to contribute to our knowledge bank, product roadmap and our own internal legal needs and much more (you can even learn to code). Throughout 2023 we have acquired 45+ GCaaS customers, with more in the pipeline. So it's safe to say we have big plans for 2024 and beyond! Some of our most loyal customers include: Doccla Legal OS Skyral The Big Ideas Group The role offers a truly unique opportunity to work in an in-house environment at a thriving global scale-up, whilst building a portfolio of tech and high growth customers that you help to nurture and scale. You'll accelerate your in-house experience faster than you ever thought possible and have fun doing so. We aren't fussy about PQE; all you need is an entrepreneurial mindset, enough in-house experience to support early-stage companies' legal needs and a strong team spirit. Application Process Rather than submit a traditional cover letter, we ask that you instead reflect on our company values and explain how you have exhibited values of the same or a similar nature in your previous roles. Your cover letter will be part of the conversation in your first interview, as our team dives deeper into your response and formulates their initial interview questions around it. There is no right or wrong format to your cover letter, feel free to interpret as you see fit and same goes for our values! 30 minutes culture discussion with our Chief Legal Officer 90 minutes technical assessment with two members of our GCaaS team 30 minutes with our CEO As part of the SeedLegals team you'll receive: Share options: the option to buy shares in SeedLegals in the future, via our share option scheme Pension 25 days annual leave + bank holidays + your birthday off 3 volunteer days per year: time off to support a charity or not-for-profit organisation you care about. Private healthcare Life insurance and critical illness cover Classpass: discounted access to studios, gyms, salons and spas near you Cycle-to-work scheme Weekly allowance for a free lunch in the office once a week £250 WFH allowance to set up or enhance your home workstation Annual learning budget for training courses, conferences and books
