We set our sights high, own our mistakes, and turn lemons into lemonade. We are incredibly proud of where we’ve come and are ready to tackle what’s next. Come join us!

Role Overview

As the Legal Support Manager, you’ll have a big mission. Your mission, if you choose to accept it, will be to lead the day-to-day support functions of the Legal & Compliance team. This role oversees a team responsible for legal operations, systems administration, claims coordination, and administrative services, ensuring consistent, high-quality support across the function.

This position plays a critical role in enabling the effectiveness of Legal & Compliance by partnering closely with Legal leadership to translate priorities into execution. The Legal Support Manager drives operational excellence, strengthens systems and processes, and ensures the team operates with clarity, efficiency, and strong alignment to business needs. The ideal candidate brings a balance of strategic perspective, operational discipline, and people leadership, with the ability to scale processes while supporting a fast-moving organization. You also understand the value of taking a moment to express gratitude to the village that helped to make it happen. As you can likely tell, 'how' things are done matters just as much as ‘what’ was done here at BH!
