    Description

    LHH has been asked to assist with an EXCLUSIVE search for an Associate General Counsel ("AGC") to join a newly created (PE-backed) organization poised for exponential growth, located in the DC/Northern Virginia area. This organization offers the feeling and excitement of being in a start-up while providing the stability and support of a committed institution with an experienced management team behind it. Cultural fits for the group will be highly accomplished individuals who understand the need to "build," are willing to roll up their sleeves, and are energized by the opportunity to help create a new platform. The AGC will develop, implement, and lead the organization's legal strategy. The AGC will provide counsel to the executive leadership team and business operations across a variety of subject areas, including but not limited to: corporate law/governance, contracts, and national and state-specific regulatory compliance.

    Background/Experience:

    Ideal candidates will have 7+ years of experience; a blend between firm and in-house is strongly preferred. Specifically, qualified candidates will have/be able to:

    • A deep understanding of corporate legal practices, regulatory rules related to alternative practice structures (ideally in the accounting industry) or be able to develop these quickly, and document management.
    • Oversee compliance with all applicable laws and regulations and conduct legal research and analysis to stay up to date on changes that may impact the company and its subsidiaries.
    • Manage federal and state regulatory strategy, compliance, and communication, developing state specific regulatory expertise across multiple states – specifically related to AICPA and other regulations governing the accounting industry.
    • Partner with HR on employment practices, employment handbook updates, insurance documentation, and minimizing exposure, etc. Manage international employment arrangements at the organization as well as its subsidiaries.
    • Develop, implement, and standardize documentation processes to improve efficiency and mitigate legal risks. Cascade 'acceptable changes' guides to other team members and assist in negotiations.
    • Review and advise on a variety of contracts and agreements, including organizational, employment, equity, vendor, buyside, and consulting agreements.
    • Experience working with private equity backed companies is a plus.

    Compensation:

    Competitive compensation package inclusive of base salary, performance based bonus structure and generous equity package.

    This role represents a unique opportunity for an individual to join a startup company with ambitious goals, yet one that has the sophistication, resources, and leadership caliber of a much larger company. The AGC will work in an exciting, fast-paced, and entrepreneurial environment, and will help promote a team-oriented culture that values treating people well. The position is based in the DC/NoVA area and will seek candidates who are able to be in the office on a regular basis. The company takes their "people first" culture seriously and relationship building in-person is an important aspect of connecting with other senior leaders and the rest of the team as they grow.
