Job Description

Corporate Counsel

Growing National Insurance Services Company

Compensation: $180,000 base salary, plus equity participation and an attractive total compensation package.

The Opportunity

Our client is a leading national insurance services company with a strong track record of growth and an active acquisition strategy. The company has built a substantial platform through strategic acquisitions and organic expansion and continues to pursue significant opportunities across the industry.

The company is seeking a junior to midlevel corporate attorney to join its legal team in a broad, hands-on role. This is an excellent opportunity for an attorney with law firm training who wants to move in-house, gain meaningful business exposure, and play an important role in the continued growth of a sophisticated organization.

The position offers a diverse mix of transactional and general corporate work, with direct exposure to senior management and the opportunity to take on increasing responsibility as the business expands.

Responsibilities

  • Support the company's active M&A program, including acquisitions, due diligence, transaction documentation, closings, and post-acquisition integration.
  • Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements, including vendor, services, confidentiality, and other business contracts.
  • Assist with corporate finance matters, including credit facilities, financing arrangements, and related documentation.
  • Advise on general corporate matters, governance, and day-to-day legal issues affecting a growing national business.
  • Provide support on employment-related matters, including employment agreements, restrictive covenants, executive compensation arrangements, and issues arising in connection with acquisitions.
  • Work closely with business leaders, finance, HR, and external counsel to develop practical solutions to legal and commercial issues.

Qualifications

  • Approximately 2–6 years of experience, preferably with a well-regarded law firm.
  • Strong foundation in corporate and transactional law, including M&A, commercial contracts, corporate finance, or a combination of these areas.
  • Excellent drafting, negotiation, and analytical skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple matters, exercise sound judgment, and work effectively with business stakeholders.
  • Commercially minded, adaptable, and interested in developing a broad in-house practice.
  • Prior insurance industry experience is not required.

Why This Opportunity?

This is a particularly attractive opportunity for an attorney seeking a first in-house position. Unlike many corporate counsel roles that focus narrowly on contract review or a single specialty, this position offers exposure to nearly every aspect of the legal function at a growing, acquisition-focused business.

The legal team is collaborative, dynamic, and closely integrated with the company's leadership. The successful candidate will have opportunities for professional development, meaningful transactional experience, and a direct role in supporting the company's growth.

Compensation includes a $180,000 base salary, equity participation, and a competitive overall package , providing the opportunity to share in the company's long-term success.
