Not built for lawyers, built with them. We work alongside the world’s best legal teams, who expect excellence, precision, and speed, and we hold ourselves to the same bar.\nOur AI-native workspace lets legal professionals move faster, think more clearly, and operate with sharper precision. By analysing thousands of documents in minutes and powering end-to-end workflows, we cut through complexity, teams can focus on what matters: judgment, strategy, and outcomes.\n2,100+ customers across 80+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $200M+ in ARR, with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI, Graceview, Cadastral, and Wexler.\nWe partner with world-class performers: including Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees, Ludvig Åberg (and his caddie), and campaigns featuring Jude Law.\nJoining Legora means three things.\nWe lean in: ownership over titles, outcomes over intentions.\n\nWe fight for excellence: high standards, direct, ego-free feedback.\n\nWegrow together: as a team and with our customers.\n\nMission before ego. Everyone contributes. No one coasts.\nIf you’re driven by impact, pace, and raising the bar. This is the place.\nThe Role\nLegora is building the compensation infrastructure to support a fast-scaling, globally distributed company, including our fast-growing sales organization. We're looking for a Sales Compensation Manager to be the compensation partner to our Sales and Revenue teams: someone who understands how incentive plans work, translates them into clear guidance for pay decisions, and keeps sales compensation running smoothly day to day. This includes all variable-pay roles across our GTM organization, from BDRs and Account Executives to Customer Success and Partnerships. You'll report to the Director, Compensation.\nThis role sits within People Compensation and partners closely with RevOps and FP&A. RevOps owns plan mechanics, including quota setting, crediting, and the ICM platform. FP&A owns compensation budgets and commission expense forecasting. You’ll own the economics behind our sales compensation, including OTE, pay mix, and market competitiveness, partnering with FP&A to model the cost and financial impact of pay changes, and providing input as needed into plan design each cycle. You’ll also contribute to our external messaging strategy, partnering with Talent Acquisition on how we position sales compensation with candidates and the market.\nYou'll be joining at a stage where the foundations are still being built, with a variable-pay population that is growing quickly across the U.S., EMEA, and APAC.\nServe as the dedicated compensation partner for Legora’s sales organization, supporting sales leaders and their People Business Partners on day-to-day comp questions\n\nBuild a strong understanding of Legora’s sales incentive plans and partner with RevOps, who own plan mechanics and the ICM platform, so comp guidance reflects how the plans actually work\n\nBuild the foundational infrastructure for sales compensation, including a single source of truth for OTE and pay mix across our compensation bands, HiBob, and commission policies, with documented exception handling\n\nOwn OTE and pay mix guidelines by role, level, and region, ensuring consistency across markets and alignment with RevOps commission policies\n\nLead market benchmarking and job matching for GTM roles, combining survey data with peer intelligence from enterprise SaaS and AI companies to reflect the markets we actually compete in\n\nPartner within the Total Rewards team to develop equity guidelines for GTM roles, bringing sales market insight to ensure total compensation, including equity, stays competitive for sales talent\n\nPartner with RevOps to provide input on plan design where needed, bringing market data, cost modeling, and pay equity insights into each annual plan cycle\n\nPartner with RevOps and sales leadership on sales manager compensation, including OTE differentiation from ICs and accelerator competitiveness, ahead of the 2027 plan cycle\n\nPartner with RevOps on how pay positioning should evolve as reps over- or underperform, including the interaction between base pay, quotas, and commission rates\n\nProvide data-informed guidance on new-hire offers, internal equity, leveling, promotions, and retention actions for sales roles\n\nPartner with Talent Acquisition on offer construction and leveling for sales hires\n\nPartner with Talent Acquisition on external messaging for sales compensation, helping candidates understand the value of our OTE, pay mix, and equity while protecting confidential plan details\n\nOwn annual compensation review execution for GTM roles, including base, OTE, and pay mix adjustments, budget modeling, and manager enablement materials\n\nPartner with People Business Partners to build career pathing for the Sales organization, including progression from BDR through Strategic roles, clear distinctions between closing and non-closing roles, and sales-specific promotion criteria\n\nEnsure sales compensation practices meet requirements across our markets, including pay transparency in job postings, written commission plan acknowledgments, and local considerations for changes to variable pay structures\n\nWhat You Bring\n7+ years of compensation experience, including direct experience supporting a sales or revenue organization\n\nStrong understanding of sales incentive plan mechanics (quota, accelerators, SPIFFs), with experience partnering on or contributing to plan design\n\nFamiliarity with compensation benchmarking platforms (Radford, Pave, Ravio, or similar) and market pricing methodology\n\nStrong analytical skills, with the ability to build models and translate data into clear guidance for sales leaders\n\nClear communicator, able to explain compensation and incentive mechanics simply to sales leadership and the field\n\nExperience with sales compensation processes, data, and governance at a company scaling its GTM organization rapidly\n\nComfort operating in a fast-paced, still-forming environment where the processes themselves are still being built\n\nUnderstanding of how equity fits into total compensation for GTM roles, ideally at a pre-IPO company\n\nExperience supporting a multi-country sales organization, including EMEA and APAC, strongly preferred\n\nReporting Line\nThis role reports directly to Legora's Director, Compensation, and partners closely with RevOps and FP&A to execute sales compensation.\nWhat’s In It For You\nGlobal collaboration: Partner with teams and clients across Europe, APAC, and North America.\n\nCompetitive package: Comprehensive salary, benefits, and tools for success.\n\nMeaningful work: Your efforts shape how thousands of lawyers use AI daily.\n\nIn-person environment: Union Square office designed for ambitious builders and company provided lunch daily.\n\nBenefits & Perks: We invest in our people with a comprehensive, thoughtfully designed benefits package: Medical, Dental & Vision\nMultiple medical plan options through Aetna and Kaiser Permanente\n\nHSA or Healthcare FSA (based on plan selection)\n\nDental plans via MetLife\n\nVision plans via Vision Care\n\nFamily Support\nGenerous parental leave\n\nFree access to Maven Clinic\n\nDependent Care FSA\n\nFree One Medical membership for employees and dependents\n\nAdditional Perks\nPre-tax commuter benefits\n\nLife Insurance + STD/LTD\n\n401(K) with generous company match\n\nUnlimited PTO\n\nRobust voluntary benefits, including identity protection (via Aura), legal coverage via MetLife, pet
