Office Lead & EA to CEO -US

We’re on a mission to make real estate transactions smarter, faster, and friction-free. Real estate is the world’s largest asset class , yet the legal processes and tools behind it remain slow, manual, and underinvested. Lawyers must review dense documents line by line and piece together information across silos, all while clients demand faster, more transparent due diligence. That’s where we come in. Orbital Copilot is the AI assistant built exclusively for commercial real estate law. Developed with former practicing real estate lawyers, it accelerates complex due diligence by up to 70% while delivering legal‑grade precision. We’ve just raised a $60m Series B to accelerate our UK/US expansion. We’re trusted by leading firms like Goodwin and BCLP to remove the busywork so legal teams can focus on what they do best: applying sharp legal judgment, delivering standout client service, and getting deals over the line faster. Working at Orbital means joining a team that’s reimagining how real estate transactions get done - moving fast, working collaboratively, and giving people the ownership to make a real impact from day one. The Role We’re growing fast in the US, headcount doubling over the next 12 months, and we need someone in Manhattan who takes genuine pride in making everything around them work brilliantly. That’s where we come in. Orbital Copilot is the AI assistant built exclusively for commercial real estate law. Developed with former practicing real estate lawyers, it accelerates complex due diligence by up to 70% while delivering legal‑grade precision. You’ll be a core member of our Manhattan office, owning the day‑to‑day running of the office and creating the environment for our fantastic NY‑based team to thrive. You’ll also provide operational oversight of our secondary LA office, and as we hire remote roles across the US, you’ll help build the foundations to ensure everyone, in‑office or remote, is set up for success and feels genuinely part of the Orbital team. This is a hands‑on, ownership‑first role. The person who thrives here takes genuine ownership, has high standards and a sharp eye for detail, brings real experience making offices and workplaces genuinely great, and is comfortable providing day‑to‑day executive support to a busy CEO.

This role involves ordering supplies, sorting logistics, and handling day‑to‑day operational details You need detailed briefs to get started. We need someone who figures out what needs doing and does it Large, established companies are more your speed. We’re a Series B scaleup. Things change, processes are still being built, and comfort with ambiguity is essential Why Join Orbital Real ownership from day one: this isn’t a support role, it’s a builder role Operate at the intersection of law, AI, and high‑growth SaaS Genuine momentum: $60m Series B, doubling headcount, expanding across two continents Be part of building something from the ground up.

Reporting risks or incidents quickly helps us maintain the strong culture of security and compliance we all depend on. At Orbital, we’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We especially welcome applications from people who are traditionally underrepresented in tech. Even if you don’t meet every single requirement, or if the right role isn’t listed yet, we’d still love to hear from you.
