Senior Talent Acquisition Manager, G&a

Legora Legora · Vertical AI · New York, NY · Corporate

This role is for a Senior Talent Acquisition Manager, G&A at Legora, an AI-native legal tech company. The role involves leading global G&A recruiting, managing a team across the US and Europe, and partnering with senior leaders like the CFO, VP People, VP Operations, General Counsel, and CIO. The focus is on scaling the corporate functions to support the company's growth towards 1,500 people. Key responsibilities include team leadership, stakeholder management, driving consistency across markets, building pipeline discipline, and partnering with talent operations. The ideal candidate has experience leading corporate recruiting at a high-growth company, multi-market experience (US/Europe), and a data-driven approach to hiring.

What you'd actually do

  1. Lead and develop a team of G&A Talent Partners across the US and Stockholm, setting the standard for how corporate hiring gets done and building the structure to scale alongside a headcount plan that keeps growing.
  2. Own relationships across a broad set of senior stakeholders: the CFO, VP People, VP Operations, General Counsel, and CIO. Each has a clear view of what strong looks like in their function and you'll be the person helping them build it.
  3. Drive consistency and quality across two markets with meaningfully different talent pools and hiring norms. The US and Europe each require a different approach and your strategy needs to reflect that.
  4. Build the pipeline discipline, reporting, and performance metrics that give stakeholders a clear and consistent view of where hiring stands across every corporate function.
  5. Partner with talent operations and the broader TA leadership team on tooling, process design, and cross-functional initiatives.
