ABOUT NIVODA
At Nivoda, we’re reimagining how the world buys and sells jewellery. Our global marketplace connects retailers and suppliers across diamonds, gemstones, and finished jewellery - already powering over $300M in annual transactions and scaling fast toward our billion-dollar vision.
We’re bringing tech, data, and automation to a $350B industry that’s barely scratched the surface of digital transformation. The result? Explosive growth and massive opportunity - powered by a team that makes it happen.
As we scale, legal is becoming increasingly central to how we fund, govern, and operate the business. This role exists to help us do that thoughtfully, pragmatically, and at speed.
OUR MISSION 💎
The idea of Nivoda was inspired by the ongoing inefficiency of diamond trading. We set out to develop the solution to help businesses, regardless of their size or location, increase their sales and margins, whilst removing the operational burden of sourcing diamonds.
