About the role

We’re looking for a Legal Operations Specialist to build and scale the operational backbone of Verda’s legal function.

This is a highly cross-functional role suited to someone who thrives in fast-moving environments and enjoys bringing structure to ambiguity.

You’ll play a key role in enabling Verda’s growth by building scalable legal operations infrastructure that supports commercial velocity while maintaining strong governance and risk management standards.
