Role
Who you are
- We're looking for a Senior Legal Counsel who has demonstrated experience leading commercial transactions and possesses a strong background and deep understanding of technology transactions, intellectual property licensing and software-as-a-service (SaaS) agreements
- The ideal candidate is a strategic “deal maker” with strong business acumen and the ability to effectively manage risk while enabling business success
- A minimum of 7 years of relevant commercial legal experience with a focus on technology transactions, SaaS, and intellectual property licensing, gained in the commercial/high-tech department of a leading law firm or in-house at a technology company (preferably in a high-growth or SaaS environment)
- Excellent negotiation, analytical, and communication skills
- Strong business judgment and the ability to balance legal risk with commercial objectives
- Demonstrated ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced, global environment
- A collaborative, team-oriented approach with a proactive, solutions-focused mindset
- Flexibility to work effectively with colleagues and customers across global time zones
What the job involves
- Negotiate and finalize complex transactions – Lead strategic, high-value enterprise contracts, including SaaS agreements, professional services agreements, partner agreements, data processing agreements, nondisclosure agreements, and responses to requests for proposals with international customers and partners
- Advise and collaborate – Work closely with cross-functional teams (including Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, Product, and others) to provide timely, business-oriented legal advice grounded in a deep understanding of WalkMe’s technology and products
- Manage risk and ensure compliance – Provide legal guidance on contract structures, regulatory requirements, artificial intelligence–related terms and agreements, and data protection matters affecting technology transactions
- Contribute to legal initiatives – Support ongoing legal projects and drive process improvements within the legal department
Our take
WalkMe is a code-free digital adoption platform allowing CIOs and executive management visibility into their company’s tech stack. The aim of its software is to help organizations both measure and maximize the impact of their digital transformation.
With more companies than ever undergoing this process, a product that provides some transparency regarding the efficacy of their digital transformation efforts is a smart market proposition. The market opportunity is significant, and global too, putting WalkMe in a strong position.
Following a successful IPO in mid-2021, WalkMe has continued on a strong and steady track, boasting over 30 million users in 40+ countries. An acquisition by German software giant SAP for an estimated $1.5 billion occurred in 2024 and will see WalkMe's workflow execution software improve the buyer's user adoption and engagement.
