Vice President, Legal

The Company is seeking a Vice President of Legal to help lead and strengthen its global legal function. The role includes managing and developing a distributed legal team, advising senior leaders on commercial, product, intellectual property, employment, and governance matters, and supporting IPO readiness and related corporate transactions. The successful candidate will advance governance across a complex international structure, build scalable legal processes and controls, and provide practical advice that supports business goals while managing risk. They will also modernize legal operations through technology, AI, automation, and improved knowledge management, while strategically overseeing external legal counsel. Candidates must hold a J.D. and be an active member in good standing of at least one U.S. state bar, with substantial in-house experience and a background in private practice. They should bring significant corporate governance experience, ideally in a complex global organization, and experience supporting an IPO, public-company transition, or comparable transaction is preferred. The role requires a record of leading and mentoring legal professionals, handling matters across multiple jurisdictions, and applying technology to improve legal operations. Strong business judgment, communication, executive presence, and the ability to translate complex legal issues into practical guidance are essential; technology-sector experience is valued, and experience in a regulated industry is a plus.
