Corporate Counsel

Acquisition.com • ,

43d • $158,000 - $238,000 • Remote

About The Position

The Corporate Counsel is Acquisition.com's day-to-day, first-line legal resource and the General Counsel's primary force multiplier. This person answers most matters on their own, directs the paralegal and legal operations specialist to keep intake and contracts moving, and escalates to the General Counsel immediately when a matter calls for it. This is a hands-on, high-volume role where requests are picked up as they arrive. The work stays excellent at that pace.

Requirements

• J.D. and active bar membership in good standing.
• 3+ years of relevant experience, including in-house at a high-growth company, covering commercial contracts, compliance, corporate governance, and general business advising.
• Hands-on experience with FTC Act Section 5 and advertising compliance.
• Experience running and improving legal operations: intake workflows, contract lifecycle management, matter tracking, or legal technology.
• Experience directing paralegal or legal operations staff.
• Uses AI and automation first, while knowing where human review is required.
• Explains legal issues clearly to non-lawyers and builds trust across sales, operations, marketing, and vendor-facing teams.
• Acts as a business partner, not a checkpoint, and gets to yes in ways that make sense for the business.
• Says no rarely enough that it carries weight. When saying no, holds the position under pressure and offers a workable alternative.
• Separates material risk from noise, decides quickly with imperfect information, and treats speed as an advantage rather than a trade-off against quality.
• Knows exactly when a matter belongs with the general counsel, and escalates it without hesitation.
• Excellence is the baseline, not the goal.

Nice To Haves

• Experience with GDPR, CCPA, and the TCPA strongly preferred.
• Background supporting advisory, professional services, events, or tech businesses preferred.
• Investment or fund exposure is a plus.

Responsibilities

• Drafts, reviews, and negotiates agreements across the business, including vendor contracts, MSAs, NDAs, SOWs, sponsorship and partnership agreements, and event and venue contracts.
• Carries a mixed docket of dozens of open matters across entities and business units, and re-prioritizes constantly without dropping anything.
• Owns day-to-day privacy, data protection, and information security questions, including consent practices and vendor data terms. Escalates regulatory strategy to the General Counsel.
• Supports the General Counsel on investment documents, diligence, and litigation matters (drafting, discovery, and outside counsel coordination) as needed.
• Reviews marketing, advertising, and sales materials for FTC Act Section 5 compliance, including testimonials, earnings claims, and required disclosures.
• Advises sales on outbound calling and texting compliance, including the TCPA and state telemarketing rules.
• Works with marketing, sales, and technology to keep improving the compliance program.
• Directs the paralegal and legal operations specialist, including workload, day-to-day priorities, and development.
• Owns intake quality: scopes unclear requests up front and reframes the ask before work starts, not after.
• Holds the same-day acknowledgment standard. Every request gets a response, an owner, and a realistic timeline, even when the full answer takes longer.
• Maintains and improves templates, playbooks, and AI-assisted workflows so turnaround time keeps falling as volume grows.
• Serves as the standing legal contact for internal teams, so they get fast answers without going through the general counsel.
• Flags risk and negotiation leverage to procurement and business owners during vendor and partner discussions.
• Reviews people operations forms, policies, and processes, with the general counsel as primary on anything ELT-sensitive.
• Finds problems, owns them, and drives them to resolution.

Benefits

• Flexible Unlimited Paid Time Off and Company-wide Holidays
• Employer sponsored Medical, Dental, & Vision plans
• $1,950 annual Employer HSA contribution
• FSA options including dependent care
• Employee assistance program and mental health resources
• Employer match program for 401(k), eligible for both Traditional and Roth accounts
• $1,200 annual wellness reimbursement through JOON that supports health, family care, pet care, fitness, and more!
• Access to a state of the art gym at our HQ in Las Vegas (for local or visiting team members)
