## Description

At Harvey, we're transforming how legal and professional services operate by combining frontier agentic AI, an enterprise-grade platform, and deep domain expertise.

As Head of Legal Engineering, APAC, you will lead Harvey's pre-sales and post-sales Legal Engineering organisation across Asia-Pacific, with teams in Sydney, Singapore, Seoul, and Tokyo.

**Role Overview** You will manage the leaders who run each market, set how we operate across the region, and serve as a senior face of Harvey with the region's leading law firms and in-house legal teams. This role exists to build a high-performing, commercially impactful APAC legal engineering function that drives pilots, adoption, and expansion with our most important regional customers and prospects.

**Responsibilities**

- Lead, coach, and develop the managers and market leaders who each own their own Legal Engineering teams across APAC, spanning both pre- and post-sales.

- Own Legal Engineering performance for the region end to end, from pilot design and quality through conversion, adoption, and expansion.

- Build and scale the APAC Legal Engineering organization as we enter new markets and deepen existing relationships.

- Build and maintain relationships with senior stakeholders at the region's top law firms and legal teams, and represent Harvey at key industry and client events.

- Partner closely with regional Sales, Customer Success, and Product leadership to set priorities, shape our go-to-market approach, and adapt our playbooks to each market.

- Establish regional operating rhythms (forecasting, QBRs, pipeline and adoption reviews) that your managers use to run their businesses and continuously raise the bar on quality and impact.

**Requirements**

- A legal qualification and extensive senior experience (typically 12+ years) at a leading law firm, in-house team, or legal technology company.

- Proven experience leading people managers and multi-country teams, with a track record of building and scaling high-performing organizations.

- Credibility with senior stakeholders in the APAC legal community, including partners, GCs, and C-suite leaders.

- Hands-on leadership of a legal technology or AI rollout, ideally across multiple jurisdictions or business units.

- Strong commercial acumen and familiarity with complex, high-touch B2B sales or pre-sales motions.

- Comfort operating in a fast-paced, high-growth environment, with the judgment to balance commercial, product, and legal considerations at a regional level.

**What We Offer**

- Structured hybrid working arrangement: 3 days in our Sydney office, 2 days working from home.

- Health Coverage: Fully covered private hospital insurance, plus extras for dental, optical, physio, mental health, and more.

- Family & Fertility Support: Support for fertility treatments, adoption, and surrogacy through Carrot.
