HFBAC (Hiring For and Building Awesome Companies) Great companies aren't built on impressive CVs/resumes. They're built on chemistry. Most hiring processes filter for the wrong thing: a polished CV, not whether someone will actually thrive on your specific team, at your specific stage. That's why so many "great on paper" hires don't work out, and why so many founders end up doing all the hiring themselves because they don't trust anyone else to get it right. I'm Helen Wingrove-Sanders, and I built HFBAC around Chemistry First: hiring for team fit, stage fit, and cultural alignment first, credentials second. My career started over 25 years ago as the BBC's first female football commentator. Watching teams up close taught me that the strongest sides weren't always the most individually talented, they were the ones where the chemistry ran deepest. I spent the next two decades applying that same insight to hiring. Today, I work as a Fractional Talent Partner for founders in any niche, bootstrapped or venture-backed, coaching you in real time so you make better hiring decisions than you ever could alone. In the US, I focus primarily on robotics. In the UK, it's robotics, tech teams, GTM, and marketing hires. I also build AI-native hiring operating systems tailored to your stage and gaps. Whether you need one critical hire or an embedded partner through a scaling phase, HFBAC exists so you stop guessing on the decision that matters most. hfbac.com | helen@hfbac.com

Job description

FOUNDING GTM - REMOTE (UK / EUROPE / US EASTERN)

Job Title: Founding GTM Lead - AI Legal Tech

Location: Remote (GMT-5 to GMT+1) - London or New York office access

Salary: €80,000 - €150,000 OTE + meaningful equity

We're partnering with an AI-native law firm backed by $9M in pre-seed and seed funding - tier-1 US VC - who are building the next generation of legal services for investment funds, financial institutions, and corporates.

They've built something real. Early customers. A world-class legal and engineering team. And now they need their first commercial hire.

This is a Founding GTM role. You'll build the revenue engine from scratch alongside the founder - outbound, pipeline, discovery, closing, playbook. All of it.

What makes this different:

  • Your fingerprints on the entire go-to-market function

  • Direct founder collaboration from day one

  • Selling into GCs, CFOs, and investment fund leadership - high-stakes, consultative, meaningful

  • Remote-first with London and New York office access

  • Company offsite in Mallorca (yes, really)

What they're looking for:

  • 0-to-1 GTM experience as a senior individual contributor.
  • You've personally built outbound pipelines and closed early-stage deals in a pre-playbook environment.
  • Consultative selling into senior stakeholders is non-negotiable. 
  • Comfortable owning end-to-end without waiting for structure to exist.

This won't suit everyone.

If you've only worked in scaled, process-driven sales organisations - this will feel chaotic. It's supposed to. That's what building looks like before the playbook exists.

HFBAC is proud to be partnering on this search. This is new headcount - the first commercial hire at a funded, founder-led AI company.
