About the Company
Wordsmith is building the legal operations platform for in-house teams, and we are growing fast.
We believe in-house legal is becoming one of the most important functions in the AI era. Every business is moving faster, but legal work is still too often scattered across inboxes, chats, documents, and disconnected systems.
Wordsmith brings that work into one system. Requests come in from across the business, AI agents handle the routine, lawyers stay in control where judgment matters, and every step is captured as work happens.
We are built for in-house legal, not law firms. Our goal is to help legal teams move faster, reduce unnecessary external counsel spend, and become a function the business can run with.
More than 500 companies, including Financial Times, Safelite, Trip.com, Canva, Starling, and Sage, use Wordsmith. Backed by $100M from Index Ventures, General Catalyst, Highland Europe, and others, we are building one of the defining companies in legal AI.
The Role
We’re hiring an Enterprise Account Executive to lead complex, high-value deals across large organisations.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You’ll be responsible for building and progressing a focused set of strategic opportunities. This means navigating multiple stakeholders, building internal champions, and creating alignment across legal, technical, and commercial teams.
You’ll work closely with Legal Engineers, Product, and Leadership, but you own the deal strategy and the outcome.
Responsibilities
- Own a portfolio of high-value, enterprise opportunities
- Build and execute deal strategies across complex buying groups
- Navigate stakeholders across Legal, Finance, Security, IT, and Procurement
- Develop strong champions and drive internal alignment within accounts
- Lead longer sales cycles (6–12+ months) with clear structure and momentum
- Partner closely with GTM Legal Engineers on solution design
- Maintain accurate forecasting and clear deal visibility
Requirements
- Experience closing complex enterprise SaaS deals
- Track record of landing and expanding high-value accounts
- Strong stakeholder management across multiple functions
- Ability to build champions and navigate internal politics
- Structured, strategic approach to deal management
- High ownership and accountability for outcomes

How We Work
- We’re an in-office team. We work together because it makes us faster, sharper, and more effective. You should expect to be in the office or out visiting clients as your default.
- This is a high performance environment. We set a high bar, move quickly, and expect people to take ownership of real problems.
- There isn’t always a clear path. The people who do well here figure things out, stay close to the work, and keep pushing until they get to the right outcome.
- This role requires patience, structure, and strong judgement. You’ll be trusted to run complex deals with a high degree of autonomy.
Why Wordsmith
We’re in a period of strong momentum — growing quickly, winning new customers, and expanding into larger accounts.
The product is landing well, the market is ready, and the team is scaling to meet demand.
If you want to be in the room, close meaningful deals, and grow quickly in a high bar environment, this is one of the best places to do it.
