We're seeking a sharp, proactive and a

US bar holder General Counsel

to strengthen our in-house legal function across three distinct workstreams: a Top 5 direct-to-consumer e-commerce brand, a family office deploying capital into hedge funds, and cross-border legal structuring across multiple international jurisdictions.

You'll report directly to the CEO, manage outside counsel relationships across your domains, and own key legal surfaces across the business from FTC compliance and consumer protection to fund subscriptions, custody protocols, and cross-border asset structuring.

This is not a support role.

You'll own critical legal domains that require dedicated senior focus.

You'll compress 3 years of senior legal leadership mastery into 1.

Most in-house counsel spend their careers siloed in one domain but you'll operate simultaneously across DTC e-commerce regulatory compliance, hedge fund subscription and custody documentation, and multi-jurisdictional legal structuring from day one.

Within your first 90 days, you'll independently identify at least five material legal risks no one assigned you to find within your designated workstreams.

You'll deliver monthly legal exposure audits directly to the CEO, run quarterly compliance sweeps across all consumer-facing surfaces, and negotiate LP terms alongside fund documentation reviews, building the kind of cross-domain legal instinct that takes others a decade in fragmented roles.

This pace energises impatient high-performers.

It exhausts clock-watchers.

If you get frustrated when you're not learning fast enough, you'll thrive here.

This isn't just another legal role.

This is your chance to become a true industry architect.

You won't draft contracts in a queue.

You'll architect dedicated legal infrastructure across DTC regulatory compliance, fund documentation, and cross-border structuring.

You'll audit checkout flows against FTC guidelines, negotiate hedge fund side letters and coordinate cross-border asset protection structuring.

Most General Counsels get one domain.

You get three, with direct CEO reporting and zero bureaucratic layers between your judgment and execution.

Most in-house roles are ticket queues.

You wait for problems to arrive.

Here, you'll deliver Monthly Legal Exposure Audits, run Quarterly Compliance Sweeps, and conduct Quarterly Fund Documentation Reviews as standard operating rhythm.

You'll be measured on risks you catch before they materialize, not fires you put out after.
