We recently closed a $550M Series D at a $5.55B valuation, backed by Accel, Benchmark, Bessemer, General Catalyst, ICONIQ, and others. We've grown from 40 to 500 people in under a year. The U.S. is quickly becoming our largest market by revenue. And we're just getting started.

We're looking for a VP of Investor Relations to build and lead this function at Legora, someone who can own the relationship between the company and our investor community, and help us tell our story at the highest level. This is a senior, high-visibility role working directly with the CEO and CFO.

What you'll do
  • Build the IR function from the ground up: Own the strategy, messaging, materials, and reporting cadence across our existing and prospective investor base.
  • Be the face to the investor community: Serve as the primary point of contact for institutional investors, venture partners, and financial media, domestically and internationally.
  • Shape the narrative: Partner with our CEO and CFO to translate financial performance, product velocity, and market position into a compelling, consistent story.
  • Own board and investor materials: Lead preparation of board packs, investor updates, presentations, and data packages, accurate, timely, and always high quality.
  • Manage and deepen cap table relationships: Keep existing investors close, field inquiries, manage communications, and surface opportunities across our sophisticated multi-party cap table.
  • Track and communicate the metrics that matter: Define the KPIs our investor base cares about, ARR, NRR, CAC, LTV, Rule of 40, and ensure they're communicated clearly and consistently.
  • Stay sharp on the market: Monitor the competitive landscape, peer benchmarks, and SaaS/AI market dynamics to keep our positioning and messaging current.


Who you are
  • You have 8+ years in investor relations, investment banking, buyside investing, or equity research, with meaningful time in SaaS or enterprise tech.

  • You have an established network across institutional investors, VC, and/or investment banking, particularly in tech and SaaS.
