About the role
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?
What You Will Be Doing
This role sits at the heart of Legora’s international growth. As Tax Manager, you will work hands-on with complex, cross-border tax matters and help turn that complexity into clarity for the business.

Support the preparation of GAAP tax provision, tax reserves, and related disclosures, with a strong international component
Coordinate international tax compliance by working closely with local advisors across regions
Support transfer pricing, intercompany arrangements, and cross-border transactions as the business scales
Partner closely with Legal (including the U.S. and Ireland), Finance, and external advisors on structuring and commercial matters
Assess the tax implications of international expansion, product launches, and commercial initiatives
Help design and implement scalable tax processes and documentation that work globally, not just locally
Create visibility into global tax positions, risks, and opportunities so leadership can make informed decisions
Act as a trusted tax partner to Accounting, Treasury, HR, and other stakeholders across the company
