Legal Solutions Architect (Residential Conveyancing)

🚀 We’re on a mission to make real estate transactions smarter, faster, and friction-free.

🏢 Real estate is the world’s largest asset class, yet the legal processes and tools behind it remain slow, manual, and underinvested. Lawyers must review dense documents line by line and piece together information across silos, all while clients demand faster, more transparent due diligence.

🤖 That's where we come in. Orbital Copilot is the AI assistant built exclusively for commercial real estate law. Developed with former practicing real estate lawyers, it accelerates complex due diligence by up to 70% while delivering legal-grade precision.

💰 We’ve just raised a $60m Series B to accelerate our UK/US expansion.

🤝 We're trusted by leading firms like Goodwin and BCLP to remove the busywork so legal teams can focus on what they do best: applying sharp legal judgment, delivering standout client service, and getting deals over the line faster.

💡 Working at Orbital means joining a team that's reimagining how real estate transactions get done - moving fast, working collaboratively, and giving people the ownership to make a real impact from day one.

You’ve likely spent years buried in manual document reviews and archaic processes. As a Legal Solutions Architect, you’ll use that expertise to fix the very things that frustrated you in practice.

You’ll be the credible voice in the room, helping some of the UK's leading residential conveyancing firms understand how to adopt AI that delivers real value and efficiency to the industry - not just a generic legal tech solution. This is a chance to shape how the world's largest asset class changes hands.

What You'll Be Doing

• Partner with Account Executives to lead discovery meetings with partners and heads of conveyancing to identify high-impact use cases.

• Deliver tailored product demonstrations and workflow walkthroughs grounded in your real-world conveyancing experience.

• Design evaluations and business cases that move deals from initial interest to contract signature.

• Coach law firm teams through change - helping them embed Orbital into their day-to-day operations while maintaining quality and compliance.

• Translate direct customer feedback into actionable insights for our Product and Engineering teams to shape what we build next.

The Impact You'll Have

You’re moving an entire industry away from a reliance on overstretched lawyers checking endless documents. Your credibility as a practitioner will open doors at major firms, ensuring our technology solves the complex problems that have stayed broken for decades.

What We're Looking For

ESSENTIAL:

• You’re a UK solicitor, licensed conveyancer, currently or recently in practice.

• You have roughly 4 - 10+ years of residential conveyancing experience with strong practical credibility.

• You understand the end-to-end workflow - from triage and searches to exchange and completion.

• You’re comfortable speaking with senior stakeholders like partners and heads of conveyancing.

• You can break down complex legal tasks into clear, structured steps for different audiences.

• You have hands-on experience with conveyancing case management systems and related digital tools.

• You’re tech-literate and motivated to learn how AI can be safely adopted in legal practice.

DESIRABLE:

• Experience with Quality Assurance or Quality Control processes and reviews.

• Strong facilitation skills for running workshops or process mapping sessions.

What We Offer

• A hybrid working pattern based out of our London centre.

• The chance to leave the billable hour and partner track politics behind for genuine autonomy.

• A role where you see the impact of your work in days rather than years.

Reasons We Might Not Be For You

• The intensity here is real and we don't have a polished corporate playbook yet - which might be frustrating if you prefer highly structured environments.

• We move fast and sometimes discard high-quality work as our direction shifts - so you'll need to be comfortable with your work being occasionally diverted.

• You'll be expected to figure things out with limited hand-holding - which isn't for everyone if you prefer clear, established documentation for every task.

Benefits

• Competitive salary + performance-based bonus/commission (role dependent) + equity options

• Matched pension contributions

• Flexible working hours and location

• 25 days paid holiday (plus bank holidays)

• Professional equipment and a personal development budget, with training opportunities

• Cycle-to-work scheme

• An inclusive community enjoying all-company off-sites, lunches, and socials

🔒 Security is everyone’s responsibility at Orbital. We ask all team members to follow our security policies, complete regular awareness training, and handle sensitive data with care in line with ISO 27001 standards. Spot something unusual? Reporting risks or incidents quickly helps us maintain the strong culture of security and compliance we all depend on.

💡 At Orbital, we’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We especially welcome applications from people who are traditionally underrepresented in tech. Even if you don’t meet every single requirement, or if the right role isn’t listed yet, we’d still love to hear from you.

💰 This hiring range is a reasonable estimate of the base pay range for this position at the time of posting. Pay is based on several factors, which may include job-related knowledge, skills, experience, and business requirements.
