Job Description

About Us

Legora is on a mission: to redefine how legal work gets done. From the very start we have been very clear about the fact that we are not building a solution for lawyers, we are building it with them, because it is the only way to make sure it gets done the right way; working side-by-side every step of the way.

Our AI-native workspace empowers legal professionals not just to work faster - but to ask better questions, unlock new insights. Every day, we push the boundaries of legal tech to make complex processes smarter, faster, and more human. From thousands of documents analysed in minutes to intelligent workflows designed in collaboration with leading practices, we’re turning possibility into reality.

Today we are trusted by global firms like Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Bird & Bird and Linklaters in over 40 countries, but we have no plans on stopping here. We ship fast, we iterate effectively, and we scale rapidly - not by accident, but by design.

When you join Legora, you become part of a team that believes "good enough" isn’t good enough and that the way to win is together, by empowering lawyers to do their best work with technology that truly understands them. If you’re excited by building from first principles, working with exceptional people, and accelerating change in a high-stakes, high-impact domain—then this is the moment and the place.

We’re not just shaping the future of legal tech — we’re defining it. Ready to join us in building the intelligent future of law?

We’re hiring a Global Payroll Specialist to help build and scale payroll as Legora continues to grow internationally. Working closely with our Global Payroll Manager, you’ll help ensure payroll runs smoothly across multiple countries while also shaping the processes, controls, and ways of working that will support our continued expansion.

This is not a role where you’ll spend most of your time processing payroll yourself. Instead, you’ll coordinate with external payroll providers, review and quality-check their work, and help improve how we work as we enter new markets. As the function develops, there will also be room to shape parts of the role based on your strengths and interests.

What You Will Be Doing

  • Coordinate monthly payroll cycles across multiple countries

  • Act as a key contact for external payroll providers

  • Make sure payroll is delivered accurately and on time

  • Carry out validations, reconciliations, and checks before payroll is finalized

  • Help ensure payroll follows local regulations and internal processes

  • Support audits by keeping documentation clear and up to date

  • Help build and improve payroll processes as we grow into new countries

  • Create clear workflows and documentation so our ways of working can scale

  • Work with payroll data from HiBob and ensure inputs are accurate and complete

  • Partner closely with HR, Finance, and external vendors

  • Step in as backup to the Global Payroll Manager when needed


Who You Are

What matters most is your mindset: you are curious, eager to keep learning, and excited by the opportunity to grow in a global payroll role. We are looking for someone who brings structure, ownership, and a willingness to figure things out in a fast-moving environment.

You also bring:

  • 5+ years of payroll experience

  • Strong understanding of payroll controls and processes

  • Detail-oriented with strong analytical skills

  • Comfortable working with HRIS and payroll systems

Legora is an Equal Opportunity Employer

At Legora, we believe great teams are built on diversity of thought and experience. We’re proud to be an equal opportunity employer and committed to creating an inclusive, high-performance culture where everyone can do their best work. We welcome people of all backgrounds and don’t discriminate based on race, color, religion, national origin, gender, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, age, disability, veteran status, or any other characteristic protected by law.
