Principal Platform Advisor - London

Legora Legora · Vertical AI · London, United Kingdom · Customer Enablement

This role is for a Principal Platform Advisor at Legora, an AI-native legal tech company. The role focuses on managing technical relationships with strategic accounts, leading incident response, defining operational playbooks, and driving product adoption. It requires strong client-facing technical advisory skills and experience in regulated professional services domains.

What you'd actually do

  1. Own the relationship: Hold the technical health and escalation outcomes for our Strategic Accounts, serving as their primary point of escalation and continuity, and read usage and adoption signals to get ahead of risk.
  2. Lead in a crisis: Act as incident lead on Sev1 and Sev2 events, owning coordination, customer communication, and the path to resolution. Drive post-incident reviews as trust-building artifacts and product feedback loops, not just process checkboxes.
  3. Set the standard: Define and own the escalation criteria, account-health model, and cross-team interfaces the function runs on. Build mechanisms that make the team consistent and not dependent on individual heroics.
  4. Own the Technical Blueprint: Maintain the single source of truth for each account, including data setup, integrations, security and legal considerations, and workflow context. Carry technical context from implementation into the live relationship so nothing is lost in the handoff and the whole account team can rely on it.
  5. Drive adoption and enablement: Run technical reviews and enablement sessions that deepen product usage, unlock new value, and keep customers current on the platform.
