What we are building at Conveo
Conveo is the AI research platform enabling fast, affordable, and high-quality consumer / B2B research. Global brands use our AI video interviewer to generate insights across marketing, product, and research teams.
The current/traditional research methods companies rely on are slow, expensive, and superficial. Running great research also requires expertise which is a blocker to many companies. That directly affects how well companies understand their customers and how well they can serve them.
You will join an extremely talented team of incredibly passionate, high-energy people. We go the extra mile while having the best time of our lives. Our team has the combination of decades of market research knowledge, incredible engineering ability, and experience building companies.
We truly care about our clients and the problem we solve. That means we humbly go the extra mile every time.
We work hard and we have fun.
To keep our quality bar incredibly high, we want to execute with the smallest possible team.
About the Role
Conveo is scaling fast — Fortune 500 clients, global contracts, high-stake procurement cycles. You'll interact with some of the world's biggest brands (Unilever, Google, P&G, Orange). The opportunity: own the legal and commercial operations that let Conveo scale without friction.
As our Legal Associate, you will spend the majority of your time (~85%) building and running the contract lifecycle and vendor onboarding machine. The remaining time, you'll support the broader legal needs of the company — from data privacy to corporate matters — giving you real exposure to the full spectrum of in-house legal work at a scaling AI company.
This is not a "review contracts when they land on your desk" role.
This is a high-ownership, high-impact role that sits at the intersection of:
Deal velocity — remove legal and procurement as a bottleneck so revenue closes faster
Day-to-day legal support — contribute to the broader legal needs of the company, from privacy to corporate matters
AI-powered operations — build scalable legal and procurement processes leveraging AI tools — automate, systematize, and move faster than any traditional legal team
Operational excellence — build repeatable processes from scratch
Commercial enablement — arm sales with clean templates, fast execution, and clear guidance
This role is only for someone who sees legal as a growth lever, not a gate.
Your Mission
As the first legal hire, you'll contribute to the wider legal function beyond contracts:
Advise internal teams on standard legal questions and risk management
Support data privacy compliance (DPAs, GDPR) and corporate legal hygiene as the company scales across jurisdictions
Coordinate with external counsel on tactical legal questions
Contribute to new legal challenges as they arise — this is a fast-growing company, so the scope will grow with you
You're the go-to legal voice internally — pragmatic, fast, and commercial.
You build a machine — powered by AI and automation — that handles:
MSAs, DPAs, order forms, amendments, and NDAs for enterprise and agency clients
Redlining and negotiation with client legal teams
Template maintenance so sales can self-serve on standard deals
A clean, trackable contract pipeline from first draft to signature
Your bar: fast execution, minimal back-and-forth, zero ambiguity.
You build and own a strong procurement process — leveraging automation and AI — that handles:
Vendor registration portals and procurement questionnaires for Fortune 500 clients
Security reviews and compliance documentation assembly
End-to-end tracking so no deal stalls in procurement limbo
Your bar: from verbal commit to vendor-approved in days, not weeks — at scale, without scaling the team.
Legal and procurement are currently the longest stage in the pipeline. You fix that by:
Standardizing templates so 80% of deals close without custom negotiation
Building a redlining playbook so the team handles common pushbacks independently
Creating a fast-track process for smaller deals
Partnering with sales to pre-empt procurement bottlenecks
Your goal: legal never holds up a deal again.
You measure yourself on:
Contracts closed
Time from verbal commit to signature halved
Deals unblocked
Templates standardized
Vendor onboarding cycles shortened
Internal teams confident in legal guidance
You don't wait to be asked. You run the machine.
What we're looking for
1-3 years of experience in commercial or technology law (in-house or top-tier firm)
Deep expertise in SaaS contracts: MSAs, DPAs, order forms, SOWs, NDAs
Working knowledge of GDPR and international data privacy frameworks
Experience negotiating with enterprise procurement and legal teams
High agency: you identify legal risks and solve them before they become blockers
Ability to translate complex legal concepts into clear, actionable guidance for non-lawyers
Comfortable building legal processes from scratch — templates, playbooks, workflows
Excellent written and verbal communication in English (Dutch or French is a plus)
Proficiency with contract lifecycle tools (e.g. Juro) and AI tools (e.g. Claude, Harvey, Legora)
Business-minded: you understand that legal exists to enable growth, not block it
Pragmatic: you know when something needs to be airtight and when "good enough" is the right call
Low ego, high standards
Comfortable pushing for outcomes (without being annoying)
Can handle ambiguity and still ship consistently
Thinks in systems and leverage — you build once so the team can use it forever
Experience at a high-growth B2B SaaS or AI company
Familiarity with Belgian, UK, or US commercial or corporate law
Experience with IP protection or data protection regulations beyond GDPR
Background in data-heavy industries, market research, or adtech
What success looks like
Average time from verbal commit to signed deal is halved
Sales has clean, self-serve templates for 80%+ of standard deals
Enterprise clients pass through legal review in days, not months
A contract pipeline with full visibility: who's negotiating what, where it's stuck, and what's closing
Internal stakeholders repeatedly say: "Legal and procurement used to be the bottleneck. Now it's the accelerator."
The legal function scales with the company — no fire drills, no surprises
Why join us?
At Conveo, you'll join a team that genuinely enjoys working, and spending time, together. We care about building real relationships, not just great products. That's why we run quarterly team offsites where we disconnect, reset, and have fun.
Plus
Step out of the law firm grind into a high-impact, high-autonomy role at a hyper-growth AI company
Build and own Conveo's legal operations as we grow from $4M to $50M ARR
Direct exposure to and working with founders and senior leadership
Work with world-class enterprise clients (Unilever, Google, P&G, Orange, and more)
Help define how AI-powered research becomes the global default
Competitive compensation with meaningful equity upside
A culture built on taste, speed, ownership, and ambition
Hybrid working model — with offices in London, Antwerp, and New York to collaborate in person
Compensation Range: £55K - £70K
