Quick Overview
Job Description
Why Harvey
At Harvey, we’re transforming how legal and professional services operate. By combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise, we’re reshaping how critical knowledge work gets done for decades to come.
This is a rare chance to help build a generational company at a true inflection point. We have strong product-market fit and world-class investor support. We’re scaling fast and defining a new category in real time. The work is ambitious, the bar is high, and the opportunity for growth — personal, professional, and financial — is unmatched.
Our team moves fast, takes ownership, and is deeply committed to the mission — operating with intensity, staying close to our customers, and pushing each other for excellence. We live by three values: Decisiveness, Simplicity, and Job's Not Finished. We act quickly on clear judgment over perfect information, we believe simplicity is what scales, and we're never satisfied with where we are. If you want to do the best work of your career alongside people who share that drive, we'd love to build with you.
At Harvey, the future of professional services is being written today — and we’re just getting started.
Role Overview
We are looking for a highly skilled solicitor to lead our EMEA Commercial legal team. Reporting to the Deputy General Counsel, you will primarily interface with our Go-To-Market team to help ensure the fast, efficient execution of our agreements with customers, and you will also have exposure to product, privacy and competition issues.
What You'll Do
Generative AI has the power to greatly change the world and directly impact how things get done. Harvey is at the forefront of this change, and our mission is to make generative AI actionable and useful for our customers. This is a fast moving environment (we are a start-up!) that is serving some of the world’s most renowned law firms and professional organizations. And this role will put you in the center of all of this.
More specifically, you will:
Lead the international multi-office Commercial legal function in the UK and EU, continuing to build a strong substantive, organizational and relationship foundation for the legal presence in the region
Mentor and lead a high-functioning team (including managers) in the drafting, review, and negotiation Commercial AI SaaS contracts
Hire others in the region as we expand
What You Have
UK or Dublin-based solicitor with 12+ years experience, both with the commercial or technology division of a leading private practice law firm, and subsequently in-house with a technology company supporting SaaS or technology Go-To-Market or Business Development teams
Experience building and managing high-functioning teams
Transactional background, including with technology and/or IP licensing commercial agreements
Experience with government sales is a plus, as is working internationally with US-based leadership
Ability to think creatively, function independently and work proactively in a fast-paced environment
Team-focused and collaborative work style; willingness to build expertise and solve new challenges in an evolving practice
Hyper-responsive and service-oriented attitude
Bonus qualifications include experience with AI, and a love for solving hard problems with a small tight-knit team
