ABOUT US Legora is redefining how legal work gets done. Not built for lawyers, built with them. We work alongside the world’s best legal teams, who expect excellence, precision, and speed, and we hold ourselves to the same bar. Our AI-native workspace lets legal professionals move faster, think more clearly, and operate with sharper precision. By analysing thousands of documents in minutes and powering end-to-end workflows, we cut through complexity, teams can focus on what matters: judgment, strategy, and outcomes. 1,000+ customers across 50+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $100M+ in ARR, with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI and Graceview. We partner with world-class performers: including Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees, Ludvig Åberg (and his caddie), and campaigns featuring Jude Law. Joining Legora means three things. * We lean in: ownership over titles, outcomes over intentions. * We fight for excellence: high standards, direct, ego-free feedback. * We grow together: as a team and with our customers. Mission before ego. Everyone contributes. No one coasts. If you’re driven by impact, pace, and raising the bar. This is the place. The Role We’re hiring a Senior Director of Technical Accounting to build and scale a best-in-class financial reporting function. You’ll sit close to Finance leadership and operate at the center of our most complex accounting, reporting, and disclosure decisions—turning technical complexity into clear, audit-ready output. This is a senior, high-impact leadership role with real ownership. You’ll set the direction for technical accounting and external reporting, partner closely with cross-functional leaders, and help define how financial information is prepared, reviewed, and communicated as the company scales. WHAT YOU'LL DO You’ll work closely with Accounting, FP&A, Tax, Legal, and Investor Relations to lead high-quality financial reporting and build scalable, repeatable processes. From close through external reporting, you’ll own outcomes while raising the bar on rigor, clarity, and efficiency. More than that, we believe you will thrive by taking ownership of: * Owning end-to-end financial statements and disclosures, including GAAP financials, footnotes, rollforwards, tie-outs, and supporting schedules * Leading external audit strategy and execution, serving as the primary point of contact for auditors and driving high-quality, on-time delivery * Overseeing complex technical accounting areas, including stock-based compensation, business combinations, leases, capitalized software, and other judgment-heavy estimates * Leading technical accounting research and review of memos to support accounting conclusions, disclosures, and policy decisions * Driving SEC and public-company reporting readiness, including building processes and documentation to support future 10-Q, 10-K, and other filings * Partnering with FP&A, Legal, and Investor Relations to align financial results, KPIs, and materials for leadership, board, and external stakeholders * Translating complex accounting matters into clear disclosures, executive-level narratives, and decision-ready communications * Designing and scaling reporting processes, controls, and automation to improve accuracy, efficiency, and audit readiness * Supporting M&A activity, including due diligence, purchase accounting, and post-transaction integration * Leading and mentoring team members, setting standards for technical excellence, accountability, and continuous improvement WHAT YOU BRING You’re a seasoned accounting leader who pairs deep technical expertise with strong judgment and a hands-on mindset. You’re comfortable operating in ambiguity, enjoy owning complex decisions, and know how to move from technical detail to strategic clarity. More than that, we believe you will bring: * 10+ years of progressive accounting experience, including significant technical accounting and financial reporting leadership * Experience from a technology and/or scale-up start-up environment * Deep expertise in U.S. GAAP and hands-on experience preparing and reviewing audited financial statements and disclosures * Proven experience leading external audits and delivering high-quality, audit-ready reporting in high-growth environments * Experience supporting public-company readiness, SEC reporting, or operating within a SOX-compliant environment * Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain complex accounting topics to senior leaders and non-technical partners * A high degree of ownership, accountability, and comfort leading through change * CPA required NICE TO HAVE While not required, we think this role could be an especially strong fit if you’ve helped scale accounting and reporting functions through periods of rapid growth or major financial milestones. More than that, we’d be excited if you bring: * Big 4 public accounting experience * Experience supporting IPO readiness or operating as a public company * Exposure to M&A, including due diligence and purchase accounting * Experience with financial reporting and ERP systems (e.g., Workiva, Oracle) * Interest in leveraging automation, systems, and AI to improve reporting quality and scalability WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU * Global collaboration: Partner with teams and clients across Stockholm, New York, London, and Sydney. * Competitive package: Comprehensive salary, benefits, and tools for success. * Meaningful work: Your efforts shape how thousands of lawyers use AI daily. * In-person environment: Union Square office designed for ambitious builders and company provided lunch daily. * Benefits & Perks: We invest in our people with a comprehensive, thoughtfully designed benefits package: Medical, Dental & Vision * Multiple medical plan options via Aetna and Kaiser Permanente * HSA or Healthcare FSA (based on plan selection) * Dental plans via MetLife * Vision plans via Vision Care Family Support * Generous parental leave * Free access to Maven Clinic * Dependent Care FSA * Free One Medical membership for employees and dependents Additional Perks * Pre-tax commuter benefits * Life Insurance + STD/LTD * 401(K) with generous company match * Unlimited PTO * Robust voluntary benefits, including identity protection (via Aura), legal coverage via MetLife, pet savings programs, and more Legora is an Equal Opportunity Employer At Legora, we believe great teams are built on diversity of thought and experience.
