  2. Proven results working across legal, product, and commercial teams
  3. Experience in a global SaaS environment, preference for fast-growth and global
  4. Track record of being able to both set or shape strategy, as well as delivering executional plans that have measurable impact on the business.
  5. Experience engaging at an executive level both internally with cross-functional groups and externally with partners
  6. Proven record of leading a diverse, high performing team across geographical regions and experience building high-performing, inclusive teams
  7. Exceptional written/verbal communication and presentation skills
  8. Ability to work independently with a high degree of accountability, while also able to collaborate cross-functionally with exceptional interpersonal skills
  9. Proven ability to thrive in a fluid, fast-paced, unpredictable environment
  10. Unquestionable ethics, integrity and business judgment; you share our values, and work in accordance with those values
