The Role

As an SEIS Associate, you’ll be at the heart of how SeedLegals helps startups secure their Advance Assurance applications to attract investors. Our award winning team completes more SEIS/EIS Advance Assurance applications than any other organisation in the UK. You’ll work directly with founders to guide them through the application process and HMRC requirements but your impact doesn't stop there.

You’ll also play a hands-on role in building and improving the systems that power the experience:

• Refining our customer pipelines and workflows in our CRM (Hubspot)
• Creating scalable processes and playbooks
• Feeding directly into our product development by sharing insights, testing features, and shaping new tools
• Collaborating cross-functionally with Sales, Legal and Engineering to make complex things feel simple for customers

This is a role for someone who loves combining customer empathy with operational thinking - someone who thrives in a fast paced, collaborative environment and enjoys making things work better at scale. You’ll help us not just support startups, but scale the platform that powers them.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Guiding customers through the completion and submission of Advance Assurance applications
• Supporting clients with SEIS/EIS questions and assisting with correspondence from/to HMRC
• Providing responsive, accurate support through HubSpot live chat, email, and video call
• Delivering outstanding customer experience that is compliant, efficient, and founder-friendly
• Working cross-functionally with our CX, Legal, Sales, and Product teams to improve workflows and build better tools
• Helping develop content and training materials to scale our support across a growing customer base
• Providing feedback to shape the Advance Assurance product and support ongoing improvements

Your annual starting salary would be between £33,000 - £38,000 depending on your experience.

Requirements

• A background in law, accountancy, compliance or tax
• Demonstrable experience in tax incentives, VCM guidelines, company law, or startup finance. Previous exposure to SEIS/EIS tax schemes and HMRC processes is a major plus

• A strong interest in working at the intersection of law, finance, and technology - and are excited by the fast pace of startup life
• Process-driven and highly organised, quick to spot ways to improve efficiency or fix pain points
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills and candidates who thrive when helping others
• Experience assisting customers through complex processes. Experience working with founders, early-stage startups or with SaaS businesses is a big plus
• Motivated by both individual ownership and team success
• This role is based in the UK. Successful candidates must have the right to work in the UK, as this role is not eligible for current or future visa sponsorship

Benefits

• Private healthcare, life, and group critical illness insurance
• 25 days annual leave, plus bank holidays and your birthday off
• Buy and sell annual leave options
• 3 volunteer days per year
• Share options after one year in the company

We love that many candidates are embracing AI to support their applications. However, we’ve found that this often makes applications very similar to one another, which can limit your ability to stand out. We encourage you to personalise your application so your unique voice and experiences come through.
