Role
Who you are
- UK lawyer with 7+ 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
- Transactional background, including with technology, and/or IP licensing commercial agreements
- Experience with product, employment, and privacy issues is a plus, as is experience building and managing teams and working internationally with US-based leadership

What the job involves
- We are looking for a highly skilled lawyer to join our legal team as our first UK-based in-house lawyer
- Reporting to the Deputy General Counsel in New York, 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 and employment issues as our first “boots-on-the-ground” in-house lawyer in the UK
- 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
- Draft, review, and negotiate Commercial AI SaaS contracts

Salary benchmarks
Our take
The explosive popularity of generative AI tools has seen specialized solutions popping up for all kinds of industries. Hoping to help supercharge efficiency and productivity for legal teams, Harvey supplies Gen AI that can assist with documentation, as well as aid research and optimize workflows.
Via natural language instructions, Harvey helps draft and analyze legal documents. It can also answer complex questions across large document sets, or even handle research queries that cover multiple domains in legal, regulatory and tax.
Its ability to support legal practitioners as if it's another member of the team is what makes Harvey particularly interesting. This approach has seen the company raise substantial funding, reaching Unicorn status in 2024. Funds will be used to expand to new geographies, grow headcount and further collect and curate data to train more “domain-specific” AI models.
