• Partner with Technical & Legal Stakeholders: Conduct tailored discoveries and present ROI business cases addressing both IT enterprise architecture standards and Legal contract risk controls.
• Territory & Pipeline Strategy: Build a robust pipeline via outbound prospecting, strategic account planning, and joint efforts with marketing and business development teams.

• Stakeholder Alignment: Demonstrated history of successfully selling into CPOs, CIOs, and collaborating with Legal Operations / General Counsel teams.
• Track Record: Consistent history of quota overachievement carrying $1M+ annual ACV targets in high-growth environments.

Our Approach to Flexible Work

With Flex Work, we're combining the best of both worlds: in-person time and remote. Our approach enables our teams to deepen connections, maintain a strong community, and do their best work. We know that flexibility can take shape in many ways, so rather than a number of required days in-office each week, we simply spend at least half (50%) of our time each quarter in the office or in the field with our customers, prospects, and partners (depending on role). This means you'll have the freedom to create a flexible schedule that caters to your business, team, and personal needs, while being intentional to make the most of time spent together. Those in our remote "home office" roles also have the opportunity to come together in our offices for important moments that matter.
