Senior Legal Specialist

# Who is Boulevard?

Boulevard provides the first and only client experience platform for appointment‑based, self‑care businesses. We empower our customers to give their clients more of the magical moments that matter most.

Before launching in 2016, our founders spent months interviewing salon managers and working behind front desks to understand their pain points so we could design a modern, user‑friendly platform that meets the unique needs of their business. Our roots may be in hair salons, but we are built for the broader self‑care industry, including many types of salons, spas, medspas, barbershops, and more. Our technology not only helps our customers survive but thrive. Take a look at how we (and YOU) can make that happen.

We have an insatiable curiosity and embrace experimentation. We believe that simple solutions require the most sophistication, and we design each and every detail to maximize potential, power, and impact. Do our values match? Read through our story and what we value the most.

Our team values and celebrates our diverse backgrounds. Being open about who we are and what we do allows us to do the best work of our lives. We believe in equal opportunity for all, and you should too.

Come do the best work of your life at Boulevard.

# Senior Legal Specialist

The Senior Legal Specialist role sits at the center of how Legal supports Boulevard’s business. You will serve as the first point of contact for many of the questions, requests, and issues that flow into Legal, helping teams navigate ambiguity, gather facts, identify risks, and move work forward quickly.

Legal operations is a big part of this role, but it isn’t the whole job. You’ll help build and improve Legal’s operational infrastructure, and you’ll also work hands‑on across contracts, compliance, and corporate matters while partnering with teams in Sales, Customer Experience, Product, Payments, Finance, and Operations to triage issues, provide preliminary guidance, and determine when attorney involvement is required. As Legal increasingly leverages AI to scale, you’ll also help pioneer how we use these tools, building AI‑enabled workflows that let a lean team support a fast‑growing business.

Success in this role requires equal parts operational excellence, legal judgment, business partnership, and a builder’s curiosity about how AI and automation can reshape legal work. You’ll spend part of your time building scalable systems, playbooks, and self‑service resources that make Legal more efficient, and part of your time helping the business solve problems in real time. If you enjoy operating at the intersection of legal, compliance, operations, and strategy, and thrive in fast‑moving environments where no two days look the same, you’ll love this role.

## Ideal Backgrounds

We’re less focused on a specific title and more focused on finding someone who has successfully operated at the intersection of legal, compliance, operations, and business partnership. Backgrounds that often succeed in this role include:

– Senior Paralegal or Corporate Paralegal
– Legal Operations Analyst or Manager
– Contract Manager or Commercial Contracts Specialist
– Legal Specialist or Legal Coordinator
– Compliance Analyst or Specialist with strong operational and stakeholder‑management experience

This role is intentionally broad. Successful candidates are energized by navigating ambiguity, partnering directly with business teams, and building scalable solutions—not simply executing within established processes. We’re especially interested in candidates who have championed AI or automation adoption within a legal or operations function.

If you’re excited about the work but don’t meet every qualification, we’d still encourage you to apply.
