About the job

About the Role

This is a founding senior attorney opportunity at an AI-native law firm in Germany, building the firm's client base and market presence from the ground up. You will bring an established portable book of business onto a proprietary agentic legal platform, acting as both a client-facing rainmaker and a key voice in shaping the firm's commercial growth.

The role

sits at the intersection of law practice and legal technology, and suits a senior practitioner who genuinely believes in the AI-driven future of legal services.

What You'll Do

Transition and continue serving your existing client book on the firm's AI agent platform. Open top-of-funnel opportunities through your private equity, venture capital, and mid-market network. Cross-sell commercial and compliance legal services into your existing client base. Collaborate with the founding team to move recurring matters onto the AI automation platform. Help shape the firm's growth trajectory as a founding equity-holding partner. What We're Looking For 12 or more years of experience as a partner-level attorney at a top-ranked German law firm, with a focus on PE/VC and corporate sectors. German-qualified Volljurist with active Rechtsanwalt bar admission. A portable, personally held client book of €1M or more, weighted toward PE/VC clients and their portfolio companies. Diversified client base across multiple sectors and company sizes, not dependent on a small number of large institutional clients for revenue. Recurring, automatable work in your book such as commercial contracts, IT and data, corporate/VC advisory, or regulatory matters; not litigation-only. Feasible transition path with a notice period and client migration achievable within approximately 6 months, and no restrictive non-competes preventing book portability. Native-level German proficiency for client work and professional English fluency. Hands-on experience using AI tools such as large language model assistants or legal AI platforms in daily practice. A Dr. iur. or LL.M. qualification is a plus. Germany-based and fully work-authorized; no visa sponsorship is available.

Compensation

& Benefits Base compensation of €200,000 to €300,000 annually , plus meaningful equity in a technology-driven legal venture. Visa sponsorship is not available. Location Germany-based, with Berlin in-person work preferred. Hybrid arrangement with flexibility for remote work. Find more English Speaking Jobs in Germany on Arbeitnow
