## Role details

## About Us

We’re building the world’s leading cross-border fintech for emerging markets—empowering families, fueling local economies, and changing how millions access financial services.

Since our launch in 2019, we’ve transformed how money moves across borders, with operations spanning 6 out of 7 continents and covering both the busiest and most underserved remittance corridors. We tapped into a massive shift—from banks to phones—bringing digital finance to places where traditional systems never reached. The next stage of growth will expand a network of services and products designed to make money more accessible to diaspora communities, including local cards and additional savings and payments features.

We’re growing fast, backed by world-class investors, and scaling a product that blends real-world impact with cutting-edge fintech innovation.

Here’s a little more:

  
- **Founded by Harvard grads and 3-time founders** who previously built Segovia (acquired) and GiveDirectly (>$300M revenue, fastest-growing NGO in the world)
  
- **Backed by top investors** including Spark Capital, Canaan, Reid Hoffman, Breyer Capital, Unbound, Wamda, and more
  
- **Built by global top performers** from Bain, Google, McKinsey, Uber, Checkout, Bolt, and beyond—fast-moving, humble, and deeply mission-driven
  
- **Truly global team**—250+ people, 50+ nationalities, 50+ languages
  
- **Guided by our values**—ownership, impact, humility, and heart—in deed, not just word

## The Role

We’re looking for a highly organised, detail-obsessed **Legal Assistant** to strengthen the operational engine of our legal team. This is a hands-on, high-ownership role. You will keep our contracts, files, and processes running smoothly, coordinate signatures, apostilles, and notarisation from start to finish, and take a confident first pass at high-volume, lower-risk agreements that keep the business moving.

You’ll work alongside our lawyers on everything from corporate housekeeping to NDAs and vendor contracts, ensuring nothing slips through the cracks. The role has real scope to grow as you take on more responsibilities and learn the business.

**Location:** London (preferred) / Brussels / Paris

## What you’ll do

  
- **Support the legal team across whatever comes up**. Be the team’s go-to for day-to-day execution. Turn tasks around quickly and chase what needs chasing.
  
- **Keep legal files and operations organised**. Own how the team stores and finds its work: sensible folder structures and naming conventions, clean version control, and well-maintained trackers and databases (contract registers, signature logs, entity and renewal records). Ensure the team can always access the right document.
  
- **Coordinate signature, notarisation, apostille, and legalisation**. Prepare signature pages and execution copies, run documents through e-signature, and manage in-person signings with the executive team. Handle notarisation, apostille, and legalisation across jurisdictions, tracking each step to completion and properly filing fully executed originals and copies.
  
- **Take a first pass at high-volume agreements**. Review straightforward contracts, order forms, NDAs, and similar documents against templates and the playbook. Make standard edits, flag deviations, and escalate items that require a lawyer’s review.
  
- **Support corporate, governance, and broader legal work**. Help with corporate secretarial and governance housekeeping, manage legal deadlines and renewals, liaise with external counsel, and handle their engagement and invoices.
  
- **Help build the tools and systems that make legal fast**. Improve templates, workflows, and databases; help adopt legal tech and AI tools to make the function quicker and more consistent; and support projects wherever the legal desk needs an extra pair of hands.

## What we’re looking for

  
- **Demonstrated experience** as a paralegal, legal assistant, or in a legal operations/administration role, ideally with some exposure to commercial contracts.
  
- **Exceptional organisation and attention to detail**. You have a system for everything and nothing slips through the cracks, even when juggling many things at once.
  
- **Confident with documents and process**: signature and execution workflows, e-signature tools, and notarisation, apostille, legalisation processes—or the ability to get up to speed quickly.
  
- **Preferably** you have exposure to commercial contracts work.
  
- **Comfortable with legal and productivity tech**. You understand document management, spreadsheets and databases, contract tools, and you’re keen to adopt AI tools to work smarter.
  
- **An exceptional communicator** who can explain legal and administrative points clearly to non-lawyers.
  
- **Trustworthy with confidential information**, exercising sound judgement on what to handle and what to escalate.
  
- **Comfortable with ambiguity and a fast pace**; a self-starter who moves quickly without letting quality slip.
  
- **Fluent in English**.

## Also you are

  
- **Outgoing**—you love speaking to people and enjoy building meaningful relationships.
  
- **Execution oriented**—you can take an idea to implementation and deliver with an “impact first” mindset.
  
- **Mission oriented**—you’re passionate about working for a net-positive organisation/tech for good.
  
- **Organised**—you have a system for how you approach your work to stay on track in a scrappy startup environment.
  
- **Driven**—you thrive in a fast-paced, target-oriented company.

## Our Values (Taptap Values)

  
- Impact first
  
- Team next
  
- Accept reality
  
- Propose solutions
  
- Win with grit
  
- Be proactively candid, with yourself and others
  
- Love the particular
  
- Own it
  
- Create positive energy
  
- Maybe, even have fun
