About Wordsmith
The buyer is the corporate legal department: general counsel, heads of legal and legal operations leaders, who use Wordsmith as the front door for requests from sales, procurement and HR, with AI agents reviewing contracts against the team's playbook (its postings count more than 500 customers, Canva, Sage and the Financial Times among them). New business is cut by company size: SMB account executives in New York close in two to six weeks, mid-market AEs are asked for a quota record on deals near $50K ACV, and enterprise AEs in New York and DACH run six to twelve month cycles through legal, finance, security, IT and procurement. Behind them sit lawyers turned GTM legal engineers for discovery and demos, an Edinburgh SDR booking meetings with general counsel by phone, email and LinkedIn, a customer success manager who carries renewals, and a partner manager for the Anthropic and Microsoft alliances. Of the 17 sales-titled openings on 2 Nov 2026, seven are selling or partner seats (three AEs, two sales managers, the SDR and the partner manager) and ten support the deal before or after signature: three legal engineers, a deployed engineer, a delivery lead, an onboarding lead, the CSM, a GTM systems engineer and two recruiters hiring sellers. New York and Edinburgh hold seven each, London two more and the DACH role sits in Munich or Berlin.
