About the role
About the Role
A legal technology company is seeking a Senior Partner to help grow an AI-enabled law practice in Germany. You will bring an established client practice, continue advising clients, and help move recurring legal work onto AI-powered workflows.
What You'll Do
• Help shape the firm's growth and contribute to its path toward Series A.
• Transition your portable client practice to the firm's platform while continuing to serve those clients.
• Build market credibility and develop opportunities through your private equity, venture capital, and mid-market network.
• Identify cross-selling opportunities for commercial and compliance services across your client base.
• Work with the founding team to automate recurring legal matters using AI agents.
What We're Looking For
• 12 to 20 or more years of German legal practice, with experience at partner level.
• German-qualified Volljurist admitted as a Rechtsanwalt, with native-level German and professional English.
• A personally portable book of business valued at €1 million or more, with a diversified client base that follows you independently of a large-firm brand.
• Strong relationships with private equity or venture capital firms and their portfolio companies, or a comparable mid-market client network.
• Experience with recurring, automatable work such as commercial contracts, IT and data, corporate and venture capital, or regulatory matters.
• Practical experience using AI tools such as Claude, ChatGPT, or legal AI products, and a willingness to adapt legal workflows to automation.
• A feasible client transition plan, including a notice period and no restrictions that prevent moving your practice.
