What you'll do
- Work with tax partners, audit leaders and their teams to identify where Legora can make a meaningful difference, from tax research and advisory to evidence review and audit documentation

- Lead clear, practical demonstrations and training sessions grounded in the client's own work, adapting the approach for practitioners, partners and innovation teams
- Own pilots and rollouts: agree what success looks like, keep stakeholders and timelines aligned, and help teams move from initial experimentation to regular use
- Work alongside Go-to-Market and Customer Success colleagues to demonstrate value, address objections and identify opportunities to expand adoption across teams and service lines
- Bring client needs and product gaps back to Product and Engineering with clear examples and enough evidence to act on

- Can organize an engagement, keep commitments, and flag problems early
- Understands the commercial realities of professional services, including engagement economics, client expectations and the balance between speed and quality
- Takes initiative, responds well to feedback and learns quickly when faced with an unfamiliar problem
