The Opportunity We're looking for a detail-oriented and curious law graduate to join Vable in a varied role spanning legal operations, contract management, and compliance, with the opportunity to develop financial skills alongside your core legal work.

This role is ideal for someone who thrives on variety, has exceptional attention to detail, is numerically confident, and wants to learn and grow into additional responsibilities.

You’ll be stepping into a pivotal position that helps free up the CEO and the Head of People & Ops to focus on high-impact work. As you demonstrate capability and curiosity, the role will evolve. If you show strength in financial operations, you'll take on more of that. If you excel at process optimization or compliance, we'll expand those responsibilities.
