Who is Josef?

The law doesn’t work. (Well, it doesn’t work for everyone.) Globally, more than 5 billion people don’t have access to legal services.

Why does this matter?

If people don’t get access to the legal help they need, they face worse outcomes in life, whether they’re negotiating with their landlord, disputing a public transport fine, or doing their tax.

At Josef, this is the problem we spend every day trying to fix. We do this through our beautifully designed no-code automation platform, empowering lawyers to transform the way they work.

Our customers include some of the biggest law firms in the world, small suburban firms, in-house lawyers at multinational corporations, and legal aid and community organisations.

Our ideal candidate

  • Experience (3+ years) in technology sales, ideally SaaS
  • Success working in a targeted and KPI-driven sales environment
  • Experience in all elements of the sales process, including customer management and CRM tools
  • Strong presentation  and proposal building skills
  • Ability to work with the C Suite and complex organisations, with strong opportunity qualification & customer needs analysis skills
  • Proven success in lead generation and pipeline development
  • Experience in successfully managing complex accounts/customer relationships
  • Strong attention to detail and excellent organizational skills
  • Self-motivation & drive
  • Experience selling to law firms, legal departments or adjacent departments like procurement, compliance, privacy or HR
