About Us

Legora is redefining how legal work gets done. Not built for lawyers, built with them. We work alongside the world’s best legal teams, who expect excellence, precision, and speed, and we hold ourselves to the same bar.
Our AI-native workspace lets legal professionals move faster, think more clearly, and operate with sharper precision. By analysing thousands of documents in minutes and powering end-to-end workflows, we cut through complexity, teams can focus on what matters: judgment, strategy, and outcomes.
1,000+ customers across 50+ countries trust us, including Cleary Gottlieb, Goodwin, Linklaters, White & Case, Dentons, and Barclays. We’ve scaled to $100M+ in ARR, with teams across Europe, North America and APAC, and continue to expand through acquisitions including Qura, Walter AI and Graceview.
We partner with world-class performers: including Aaron Judge and the New York Yankees, Ludvig Åberg (and his caddie), and campaigns featuring Jude Law.
Joining Legora means three things.

  • We lean in: ownership over titles, outcomes over intentions.

  • We fight for excellence: high standards, direct, ego-free feedback.

  • We grow together: as a team and with our customers.

Mission before ego. Everyone contributes. No one coasts.

If you’re driven by impact, pace, and raising the bar. This is the place.

About the role

Legora's payables volume is growing as fast as the company is. We're hiring an Accounts Payable Lead in Stockholm to work on accounts payable end to end — every invoice, payment run, card transaction, and expense claim — and to keep it accurate and on time.

This is a hands-on role, reporting into our Accounts Payable Manager in New York. Our AP systems are mid-implementation, so you'll finish the rollout and then push it further: automating what is still manual, applying AI to the repetitive parts of coding, matching, and exception handling, and building the controls that keep a fast-scaling payables function audit-ready.

What You'll Do
  • Process the full accounts payable cycle: invoice coding, approvals, and exception resolution

  • Coordinate scheduled payment runs across multiple entities and currencies, on time and to the right accounts

  • Complete and maintain vendor onboarding and vendor master data, including verification of payment and tax documentation

  • Be the point of contact for vendors and internal stakeholders on anything payables

  • Process employee reimbursements and corporate card transactions

  • Find where AI can remove manual steps — invoice coding, matching, exception triage — and put it to work

  • Keep AP clean for month-end close, with accurate accruals input, reconciliations, and a clear AP ledger

  • Document the process as you build it, so AP scales beyond any one person

What You Bring
  • 4+ years in accounts payable, including processing of a full AP cycle

  • Experience handling high invoice volumes in a fast-paced environment

  • Comfort working across multiple legal entities and currencies

  • Hands-on experience with AP and ERP systems, and the instinct to improve them rather than work around them

  • Precision and professionalism under deadline pressure

  • Clear, prompt, professional communication with vendors and with colleagues who do not work in finance

  • Real interest in using automation and AI to do the work better, not just faster

  • Adaptability in a fast-moving environment where process is still being built

  • Experience with Ramp, Zip, Netsuite is a plus
