We're on a mission to make real estate transactions smarter, faster, and friction-free. Real estate is the world's largest asset class, yet the legal processes and tools behind it remain slow, manual, and underinvested. Lawyers must review dense documents line by line and piece together information across silos, all while clients demand faster, more transparent due diligence. That's where we come in. Orbital Copilot is the AI assistant built exclusively for commercial real estate law. Developed with former practicing real estate lawyers, it accelerates complex due diligence by up to 70% while delivering legal-grade precision. We've just raised a $60m Series B to accelerate our UK/US expansion. We're trusted by leading firms like Goodwin and BCLP to remove the busywork so legal teams can focus on what they do best: applying sharp legal judgment, delivering standout client service, and getting deals over the line faster. Working at Orbital means joining a team that's reimagining how real estate transactions get done - moving fast, working collaboratively, and giving people the ownership to make a real impact from day one. Role Overview As a Legal Solutions Architect (UK) at Orbital, you'll sit at the intersection of commercial real estate law, product, and go-to-market execution. This is a client-facing role supporting our commercial real estate legal customers both pre- and post-sales: Pre-sales: partnering with Account Executives to win new business - running discovery, tailoring demos, shaping pilots and aligning Orbital Copilot to real-world transactional workflows. Post-sales: partnering with Customer Success to onboard teams effectively, coach users through change, and drive adoption, retention, and expansion across firms and legal teams. You'll be a trusted advisor to partners, PSLs/knowledge teams, innovation leaders, and fee-earners - and a key internal "Voice of the Customer" to Product, Engineering, Sales, and Marketing. This role is ideal for a currently practising UK real estate lawyer who's excited by the practical application of AI in legal work and thrives in dynamic, evolving environments. What you'll do Pre-sales: drive successful evaluations and close (40%) Partner closely with Account Executives to understand customer goals, legal workflows, and success criteria - and translate that into an effective evaluation plan. Lead legal workflow discovery with partners, associates, PSLs, paralegals, and innovation teams to uncover pain points and identify high impact use cases. Deliver tailored product demonstrations, workshops, and stakeholder sessions that resonate with specific practice groups and transaction types. Design and run pilot programmes (scope, enablement, measurement, stakeholder management), ensuring clear outcomes and momentum through to commercial conversion. Provide credible subject matter leadership in customer conversations, helping stakeholders understand what good looks like for AI enabled real estate due diligence. Post-sales: accelerate onboarding, adoption, and retention (60%) Partner with Customer Success to onboard new accounts and practice groups, including enablement plans and role based training. Coach lawyers and legal staff through workflow change - adapting your approach to different seniority levels and firm cultures. Identify friction points in implementation and adoption, and drive practical solutions (enablement, process design, best practices, internal champions). Support renewals and expansions by surfacing value proof points and helping customers scale usage into new matters or teams. Product & GTM: be the legal voice of the customer Translate customer feedback into actionable insights for Product and Engineering (workflows, accuracy, usability, knowledge gaps, and product performance). Partner with Marketing on practice area specific collateral and thought leadership content that speaks to lawyers (not technologists). Conduct light market/competitor research to inform positioning and sales strategy. Reinforce Orbital's market presence through activities such as publications, webinars/CPD sessions, and firm events. You should apply if You are a UK qualified lawyer (solicitor or barrister) and are currently practising (or very recently practising) in commercial real estate. You have 4-8+ years PQE (we care more about depth of experience and credibility with fee earners than a strict number). You understand commercial real estate legal workflows end to end, with experience across areas such as acquisitions/disposals, due diligence, leasing, development, real estate finance, construction, and/or title reporting. You enjoy being client facing and are comfortable advising senior stakeholders (partners, heads of real estate, PSL/knowledge, innovation teams). You can break down complex legal work into clear, structured steps and explain concepts crisply to different audiences. You're highly tech literate, curious, and motivated to learn how LLM based systems add value - including safe and responsible adoption in legal environments. You thrive in a fast moving, collaborative startup environment where priorities evolve and you take ownership. Nice to have Experience in (or strong familiarity with) legal tech, knowledge roles (PSL/knowledge lawyer), innovation teams, or process improvement. Strong facilitation skills (workshops, enablement sessions, stakeholder management, internal champion programmes). Experience supporting commercial processes (scoping, commercial proposals, procurement/security questionnaires, ROI/value cases). Experience creating reusable assets: templates, checklists, playbooks, or workflow standards. Benefits Competitive salary + performance based bonus/commission (role dependent) + equity options Matched pension contributions Flexible working hours and location 25 days paid holiday (plus bank holidays) Professional equipment and a personal development budget, with training opportunities Cycle to work scheme An inclusive community enjoying all company off sites, lunches, and socials Security is everyone's responsibility at Orbital. We ask all team members to follow our security policies, complete regular awareness training, and handle sensitive data with care in line with ISO 27001 standards. Spot something unusual? Reporting risks or incidents quickly helps us maintain the strong culture of security and compliance we all depend on. At Orbital, we're committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We especially welcome applications from people who are traditionally underrepresented in tech. Even if you don't meet every single requirement, or if the right role isn't listed yet, we'd still love to hear from you. This hiring range is a reasonable estimate of the base pay range for this position at the time of posting. Pay is based on several factors, which may include job related knowledge, skills, experience, and business requirements.
