About Us

We believe the next generation of financial services will be powered by stablecoins. Founded in 2021, our mission at BVNK is to accelerate global money movement. We’re building stablecoin-native infrastructure so businesses can move value instantly across borders and networks. With global licenses and T1 bank partnerships, we facilitate billions in transactions for enterprise clients like Worldpay, Deel, LianLian Global, and Rapyd. Our technology is transforming how businesses operate globally by eliminating payment delays, reducing costs, and unlocking trapped capital.

We’re a diverse team spread across EMEA, North America, and APAC, with a shared belief that stablecoins are the new infrastructure layer for financial services, and that BVNK is at the forefront of this shift.

In 2025, we secured strategic investment from Visa, following our $50 million Series B with Haun Ventures, Coinbase Ventures, Scribble Ventures, DRW Venture Capital, Avenir, and Tiger Global. With the backing of these leading investors, we’re accelerating our growth – and we're looking for smart, ambitious people to help us build the future of financial services.

We're incredibly honored to have made Newsweek's list of The Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces three years running (most recently in 2025) and to have been recognised by LinkedIn as one of the Top 20 Startups in the UK in 2024.

About This Role in the Team

We’re looking for a Legal Operations Manager to help introduce structure, systems, and strategy into the day-to-day work of our legal function to free up our lawyers to focus on high-value work and to help the team deliver faster, smarter, and with less stress.

We’re looking for someone who is tech-savvy who can both build and execute. You’ll be hands-on with legal tooling, processes, and reporting, while also collaborating with our product, engineering, and data teams to scale legal infrastructure. This is a high-impact role at the intersection of legal, technology, and operations in a fast-growing global fintech.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.

Key Areas of Responsibilities

  • Tooling & Workflow Development: Build, configure, and maintain day-to-day tools (e.g., LawVu, Salesforce, Jira, Slack) and workflows to support legal operations. Partner with engineers and product teams to design scalable systems.
  • Contract Management: Own the end-to-end lifecycle of contracts, including templates, versioning, automation, alerts, and integration with other business systems.
  • Data & Reporting: Create dashboards, track legal KPIs, and maintain legal data integrity across platforms. Use insights to drive team efficiency and prioritisation.
  • Vendor & Spend Management: Manage external counsel relationships, track legal spend, oversee invoice processing, and support budgeting and forecasting.
  • Project Management: Lead key legal initiatives, such as licensing applications and operationalisations, tool integrations, audits, and regulatory readiness. Own timelines, risks, and delivery outcomes.
  • Privacy & Compliance Support: Collaborate with the DPO to operationalise data protection processes and support regulatory compliance.
  • AI & Automation: Identify and implement AI or automation opportunities (e.g., contract analysis, workflow routing, doc generation) to reduce manual effort.
  • Training & Enablement: Train legal and business teams on tooling and processes; promote self-service and adoption of scalable systems.

What We Need From You

  • Legal operations or project/program management experience in a fast-paced legal, compliance or similar team.
  • Comfortable building workflows directly in tools like Salesforce, LawVu or similar (not just overseeing implementation).
  • Experience building out automations, AI programmes and workflow optimisations.
  • Strong technical fluency: can speak the language of engineers, draft requirements, and test configurations.
  • Highly organised with experience managing complex, cross-functional projects.
  • Strong interpersonal skills with the ability to influence and partner across legal, engineering, product, and commercial teams.
  • Proficient in tools like Slack, Jira, Google Workspace, DocuSign, and data reporting tools (e.g. Quicksite).
