About the Role

As our Fractional Legal Counsel, you will be the senior legal partner to our COO, Exec team, and Board. In a fractional capacity, you will be part of the team, close to the people who win and deliver the work, and trusted to make the calls that keep us keep moving. We need someone who can start adding value from their first week. You will handle our most important contracts and legal questions across EMEA, the Americas, and APAC, and set up the templates, playbooks, and processes that let the business handle routine matters with confidence when you are not there. Being qualified in both England & Wales and the US means you can cover our two largest legal systems directly and coordinate local counsel everywhere else. You will report to the COO and work closely with our CFO and General Managers, as many of our legal questions (commercial terms, liability, entity structure and governance) sit at the intersection of legal, finance, and operations. As the business grows, you will also help us decide what our long-term legal function should look like.
