Senior IT Auditor
About The Position
Legora is redefining how legal work gets done. 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. Our 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. 1,000+ customers across 50+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $100M+ in ARR, with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI and Graceview. We partner with world-class performers: including Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees, Ludvig Åberg (and his caddie), and campaigns featuring Jude Law. Joining Legora means three things. We lean in: ownership over titles, outcomes over intentions. We fight for excellence: high standards, direct, ego-free feedback. We grow together: as a team and with our customers. Mission before ego. Everyone contributes. No one coasts. If you’re driven by impact, pace, and raising the bar. This is the place. We're hiring a Senior IT Auditor to own IT General Controls (ITGC) and technology risk across our audit program. You'll assess risk across our core systems and vendors, design and execute testing where formal processes don't yet exist, and be a key point of coordination with external audit and our co-source partner on all IT-related matters. This is a hands-on, build-from-scratch role for someone who wants real ownership over how technology risk is assessed and controlled as the company scales — and who's excited to apply AI and automation to make testing faster and more effective, not just more of the same.
