Finance & Legal at Nabla

Finance and Legal at Nabla sits at the centre of every major decision the company makes. As Lead Counsel, Corporate & Equity , you'll own and lead all corporate legal matters — from day-to-day legal matters, equity transactions, fundraising, M&A to governance and compliance. This is a senior cross-functional role that operates at the intersection of Legal, Strategy and Finance.

Your Team

You'll report directly to the CFO and serve as a key member of the leadership team and a trusted advisor to the Board. You'll work closely with executives across Finance, HR, and Operations. You'll manage relationships with external counsel, investment banks, and investors, and coordinate complex cross-functional workstreams across every major transaction and fundraise.

What you'll do

Corporate & Governance

• Serve as the primary legal advisor on all French corporate matters, including board resolutions, shareholder decisions, and governance documentation

• Own the relationship with external counsel and manage external legal spend effectively

Equity & Cap Table

• Own and manage the cap table end-to-end, including BSPCE, BSA, stock options, and secondary transactions

• Structure and execute equity grants, ensuring compliance with French tax and corporate law requirements

• Advise employees and leadership on equity mechanics, tax implications, and liquidity events

Fundraising & M&A

• Lead the legal workstream on future fundraising rounds, from term sheet through closing, coordinating with investors, external counsel, and the CFO

• Support M&A processes including due diligence, structuring, negotiation, and integration from a legal perspective

• Maintain and update the data room and corporate records in preparation for future transactions

Commercial & Partnerships

• Review and negotiate partnership agreements, vendor contracts, and strategic commercial arrangements, with a focus on the French entity

• Work closely with the US Commercial Counsel and ensure consistency across both entities

• Develop and maintain standard contract templates to improve speed and reduce external legal costs

Compliance & Risk

• Monitor and ensure compliance with applicable French corporate, employment, and financial regulations

• Identify and proactively manage legal risks across the business, escalating material issues to the CFO and Board

• Support HR on employment law matters, including restructuring, terminations, and executive agreements

The impact

• Nabla has raised significant capital to date and is on a strong growth trajectory — you'll own the next chapter of that story, from fundraise to close

• Every commercial agreement, vendor contract, and strategic partnership that powers our 10 billion tokens/month of LLM processing runs through this function

• You'll be the person who makes sure Nabla can move fast without breaking things legally or financially — directly enabling the clinical impact we have for hundreds of thousands of healthcare professionals each week

Your DNA

• 5+ years of progressive legal experience, ideally spanning a top-tier law firm (corporate, M&A, or capital markets practice) and an in-house role at a VC-backed technology company

• Proven track record managing fundraising processes and/or M&A transactions end-to-end — from term sheet negotiation through closing and post-transaction integration

• Deep expertise in French corporate law, equity instruments (BSPCE, BSA), deal documentation, and governance best practices

• Comfortable operating at the intersection of legal and finance, able to read a cap table, model dilution scenarios, and engage credibly with CFOs, investors, and investment bankers

• Exceptional communicator, able to distill complex legal and financial concepts for diverse audiences including the Board, employees, and external partners

• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple high-stakes workstreams simultaneously in a fast-paced, high-growth environment with limited resources

• High degree of integrity, discretion, and sound commercial judgment: you are a trusted advisor, not a blocker

• Bonus: prior experience at a Series B–D stage company, ideally in SaaS, AI, or healthcare

Together, we're committed to making clinicians' lives easier and improving healthcare experiences for everyone. We believe in a world where clinicians can focus on what they were trained to do - caring for their patients, and where no patient feels their visit was rushed.

We come to work excited to leverage AI to do more for clinicians. We’re obsessed with our users’ satisfaction and we actively seek out opportunities to engage one-on-one with clinicians to understand how Nabla can better help. We consistently look for ways to improve and do not shy away from doing the work to excel. Whether it’s a feature our users asked for, or a new article for our blog, we prioritize collaboration to deliver exceptional outcomes.

We love having fun as much as we love work. Our #nablabla channel is as active as our #feature-show-off channel, we exercise during the work day at least 3 times a week (yoga, running, pilates, or HIIT, your choice!), enjoy regular off-sites to gather the team, and travel to see each other in places like NY, Paris, San Francisco, and many other vibrant cities. Oh, and we’re constantly snacking on chocolate or nuts!

If this sounds like an environment you’ll thrive in, we look forward to reading your application!
