Reports to: Chief Recruitment Officer

Work Arrangement: Hybrid(3 days onsite, 2 days remote)

Experience Level: Minimum 2 years in a Corporate Startup How You'll Make an Impact

We are looking for a Legal Officer who has "startup DNA." Unlike a traditional law firm, you will be embedded in the business, supporting 20+ client meetings monthly and ensuring our contract cycle time is industry-leading. You will be the guardian of our Service Level Agreements (SLAs), ensuring 100% accuracy and compliance while maintaining a lightning-fast turnaround time of less than 24 hours. If you are a collaborative, tech-savvy lawyer who loves building frameworks and navigating risk in a high-growth environment, this is your role.

Contract Management: Draft, review, and manage the lifecycle of all commercial contracts, ensuring 100% accuracy and protection. Corporate Governance: Act as the primary point for due diligence, risk reporting, and regulatory compliance. Legal Advisory: Provide real-time counsel to internal stakeholders to avoid disputes and manage litigation efficiently.

Experience: Minimum 2 years in a corporate startup environment. We are specifically not looking for legal consulting/law firm backgrounds—you must be comfortable being an in-house generalist.
