About Lawhive:

Our mission is to make the law accessible to everyone.

The legal industry is built on technology and processes that haven’t been updated in hundreds of years - that's why we've reinvented the entire model from the ground up with our own bespoke AI operating system at the core.

Lawhive is a regulated law firm with an AI-native platform built to amplify expertise and revolutionise the way people practice law, leading to exceptional outcomes for clients and lawyers.

Lawhive Labs is how we bring this vision to life. It's our frontier lab that combines top engineering, design, AI and legal talent from around the world, joining forces to build the future of law.

We’re backed by top-tier investors, including Google Ventures, Balderton Capital and TQ Ventures, and in early 2026, we secured $60M Series B funding round to facilitate international expansion and to grow our team.

We’re headquartered in London and in 2025 successfully launched in the US…and we’re just getting started.


The Role

Ready to revolutionize how people access legal help? We're building something special at our Austin, TX headquarters, and we need a driven Inside Sales Specialist to join our founding Go-To-Market team. This isn't your typical sales role; you're not just closing deals, you're opening doors to justice and connecting people with legal solutions that can change their lives.

As an early member of our Inside Sales team, you'll be on the front lines of our mission to democratize legal services. With every conversation you have, every client you help, you’ll be reshaping an industry that's been stuck in the past for far too long.

This is an in-person role based in our Austin office.

Crush Your Targets

  • Hit and exceed sales goals in a high-energy, metrics-driven environment

  • Take ownership of your numbers and hustle to make things happen

  • High attention to detail and strong organizational skills
