Sales Development Representative

We’re Avvoka

We’re Avvoka, a platform built for the next generation of legal drafting.

We help lawyers, deal teams and commercial leaders create, negotiate and manage complex contracts faster and smarter. Our platform blends automation, collaboration and AI while keeping lawyers in control, because we believe the best work happens when people have better tools, not when they’re replaced by them.

Avvoka is trusted by leading law firms, banks and enterprises. We’ve grown fast, almost entirely through product strength and word of mouth.

Now we’re at an inflection point. We’re evolving from a product-led business into a global brand that defines what the next era of drafting looks and feels like. That means investing in design, storytelling and experiences that move the market.

You’ll join the team building that brand from the inside out.

The Role

As a Sales Development Representative (SDR) at Avvoka, you’ll be on the frontline of our revenue team — driving pipeline growth, shaping how prospects first experience our brand, and fueling our mission to redefine document automation.

This is a high-impact role where you’ll engage with senior legal, commercial and operations leaders across global law firms and enterprises. You’ll educate the market, qualify opportunities, and help turn interest into conversations that convert.

You’ll thrive here if you’re curious, commercially minded, motivated by targets, and excited by the idea of helping transform an industry that’s ready for change.

What Success Looks Like

To ensure your application has the best opportunity of success, your CV could cover the below measures of success with quantifiable results (e.g. percentages, growth, reductions, impact)

• Strong communication skills — written, verbal and social (especially on LinkedIn)
• Confidence in cold outreach and articulating value propositions
• A structured approach to qualifying prospects and managing pipelines
• Curiosity about legaltech, document automation or workflow software
• Ability to absorb product knowledge and translate it into benefits-driven messaging

Bonus points if you have:
