About this role
Eqvilent is seeking a Senior Legal Counsel to lead legal support for market expansion, manage complex legal projects, and collaborate directly with the CEO. This fully remote role offers competitive compensation and 40 paid days off per year.
Description
We are looking for a Senior Legal Counsel who will serve as a trusted partner to the business and a project-owning operator within the legal team. This is not a support function — you will own mandates end-to-end, lead cross-functional initiatives, and when needed communicate directly with the CEO.
Responsibilities
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Lead legal support for Eqvilent’s expansion into new markets, including entity setup, regulatory approvals, and commercial launch
- Draft, review, and negotiate a broad range of commercial agreements, including trading, technology, services, vendor, and partnership contracts
- Support corporate transactions, including M&A, joint ventures, and investment structures
- Own legal and cross-functional projects, working closely with compliance, operations, finance, technology, and senior leadership
- Monitor regulatory developments in key jurisdictions and translate them into clear, actionable guidance for the business
- Support licensing and ongoing compliance matters in regulated markets, including Malta, India, and the UAE/DIFC
- Act as a key legal partner to internal teams, advising on commercial, regulatory, employment, and people-related matters
- Manage external counsel to ensure high-quality, practical, and cost-effective legal support
Requirements
What We Look For In You:
- Qualified lawyer with 7+ years of post-qualification experience
- Meaningful time spent at a major international or top-tier regional law firm — you bring structured, rigorous legal thinking to every problem
- Proven track record managing complex, multi-jurisdictional legal projects independently and to deadline
- Strong commercial instincts — you understand business objectives and calibrate legal advice accordingly
- Advanced user of Google Workspace and modern AI platforms including Gemini, Claude, and equivalent tools; you leverage these daily to increase output quality and speed
- Exceptional written and verbal communication — you can translate complex legal analysis into clear, actionable guidance for non-lawyers
- Highly organised, deadline-driven, and composed under pressure across competing priorities
- Not a perfect match on paper? We hire for potential and mindset, not just credentials. If you think you'd bring something valuable to the team — we'd still love to hear from you. Use your cover letter to tell us why.
Conditions & Benefits
Why Should You Join Our Team?
- Direct collaboration with the CEO and senior leadership — real access, real impact
- Full project ownership from day one — you lead mandates, you do not just support them
- Fully remote from anywhere in the world
- International mandate spanning a vast number jurisdictions and a genuine variety of legal work
- A team that operates with modern tools and an AI-native mindset — no outdated workflows
- 40 paid days off per year
- Competitive compensation reflecting the seniority and scope of the role
