About The Position

As Corporate Counsel, you’ll be the primary legal partner for SafetyCulture’s US GTM teams.

You’ll work closely with our global Legal team across Sydney and the UK, and serve as a trusted embedded partner to Sales, Customer Success, and beyond.

Requirements

• Proven track record negotiating and closing complex commercial agreements in a B2B SaaS environment, balancing legal rigour with deal velocity.
• Strong foundation in US contract law - commercial terms, liability, IP, data protection, and indemnification.

• Comfortable working across multiple time zones and managing competing priorities across US and APAC business hours.

• Advise on US regulatory and compliance requirements including CCPA and equivalent state-level data privacy frameworks as they apply to a SaaS business.
• Collaborate across time zones with the global Legal team in Sydney and the UK, contributing to global projects and ensuring consistency across jurisdictions.
• Identify patterns in legal risk across the GTM pipeline and proactively recommend improvements to templates, processes, and internal guidance.
• Provide ad hoc legal support to other business units, including SafetyCulture Care, as it scales in the US.
