Position Summary:

The Small Business Expert is a NEW dual-mandate role for LegalZoom's expanding small-business services. Half the job is design: helping expand the Business Manager program.  The other half is proof: running the expanded pilot yourself as the consultative relationship owner and trusted advisor for a live book of clients. As the pilot proves out, this role is positioned to grow into leading and managing the team that scales it. 

Mandatory experience: working in an accounting firm, legal firm or back office of a small business helping to operate and grow small businesses.

Expertise in or general knowledge of:

• Business formations; LLC, C-Corp, S-Corp, Non-Profits

• Multi-state setup and expansion 

• Government Compliance

• Workforce management

• Contracts

• Tax filings

• Bookkeeping

• Obtaining and maintaining business licenses and permits

Desired specific industry experience:

• Professional services

• Real estate (agents and landlords)

• Retail

• Transportation

• Non-profit

An ideal candidate has this experience from either side of the desk: someone from an accounting or attorney firm who supported small-business clients directly, or someone who worked inside an SMB's back office managing operations across areas like the above.

What you'll do:

• Run the pilot hands-on: own a book of small-business relationships end-to-end - acquisition, needs assessment, solution design, and retention - measured by how well you deliver on the jobs above, not just by what you sell.

• Turn pilot learnings into the playbook, then help build and lead the team that scales the program beyond you.

• Own a book of small-business relationships end-to-end: acquisition, needs assessment, solution design, and retention.

• Run consultative discovery with owners; translate their situation into the right mix of formation, multi-state, compliance, workforce, contracts, and financial services.

• Hit revenue, attach-rate, and retention targets while sustaining a trusted-advisor relationship (not transactional churn).

• Be the single point of contact clients trust year-round; check in proactively at key business moments (hiring, expansion into new states, renewals, filings).

• Partner with product, service delivery, and specialists on complex needs.

• Help shape the expanded Business Manager service model as an early, senior member of the Austin team.

• 5+ years in a consultative, relationship-owning role serving small-business owners.

• Demonstrated ownership of a book of business with revenue and retention accountability.

• Fluency in how small businesses actually run: entities, multi-state obligations, hiring/workforce, contracts, cash flow, compliance.

• Track record of consultative selling with cross-sell/attach across multiple services (bundles, not single transactions).

• Strong trust-building and communication with owner-operators.

• Experience at a small-business services competitor or adjacent platform

• Small-business / relationship-manager background 

• Credentials signaling expertise 

• Track record helping SMBs get off the ground and scale (startup-to-growth-stage experience)
