Job description
We Are...
Breaking The Law
LawAdvisor was founded in 2015 in Melbourne, Australia with a fearless and ambitious belief to revolutionise the practice of law. Our mission has since been supported by thousands of lawyers and has allowed us to expand and set up offices across the globe. We've also attracted high profile investors and partners who have shared our mission to transform legal service delivery. We launched two products in 2021: LegalEye and Fibonacci.
LegalEye is a platform that enables in-house teams and law firms to better track and manage their interactions, derive actionable insights from upcoming and existing engagements, and facilitate better knowledge sharing within the industry. As a result of this approach, both parties are able to drive more meaningful and value-driven relationships.
Fibonacci, a no-code legal project and matter management system that provides in-house counsel and law firms with the tools to execute all kinds of legal matters, from M&A transactions to complex multi-jurisdictional litigation. It enables teams to build project plans, create and automate playbooks, discuss changes, create and manage documents and track progress with all stakeholders in a single workspace through a simple, intuitive user interface.
We Need...
A Trend Spotter
As an expert in our industry, target market and current trends, the Legal Research Analyst will help shape, influence and refine the further development of our corporate products, and influence our marketing and go-to-market campaigns. You can work autonomously but also collaboratively with a team and our key stakeholders. You can navigate and filter the many requests that will be demanded of you and can make the tough judgement calls about where to devote your time and attention, based on business priorities. One day, you’ll be researching a key area of the law, and the next, you’ll be contributing to product direction and providing input about our GTM campaigns
You’re never satisfied with a ‘good idea’: you will use all the resources at your disposal to ensure that these ideas not only materialise, but provide tangible benefits to our clients, our company, and in transforming the industry. To achieve this, you will work with the core management team and will be trusted to build strong working relationships with our product, marketing and customer success teams. After all, you’re tasked with a key responsibility: to ensure LawAdvisor stands out in the world of legal tech and deliver on our promise in revolutionising legal services delivery.
You Will...

- Be the voice of our customers, understand what they need to hear and find trends in the industry to support that. Using reliable sources to strengthen the credibility of the LawAdvisor name.

- Possess excellent communication when articulating ideas.

You Should Have...
- Strong written, verbal and interpersonal skills: you are a central hub of communication within our company as you are responsible for synthesising the voices, needs, and concerns of our stakeholders, product team, and clients.
- Experience working with others and managing your own workload. As a team player in a startup, we promote the independence of running with your own ideas as well as collaborating as a team to achieve them.
- An understanding and enthusiasm for researching and writing about legal technology. LawAdvisor’s content is niche in this area and we aim to showcase our industry expertise in this way.
- The ability to work alongside the customer success and marketing teams but also autonomously as you take the initiative to do what is needed.
- The ability to build domain and industry knowledge quickly.
Bonus Points...
