From Eqvilent’s job post, as they wrote it.
We are looking for a Senior Legal Counsel – an in-house generalist who owns legal projects end-to-end, from framework design down to forms and filings and ensure that legal work is implemented effectively in day-to-day business operations.

Read the full description
* Lead legal side of new market entry: entity setup, licensing, engagement with local regulators and consultants
* Draft and negotiate commercial agreements, including complex non-standard contracts in new markets
* Advise on employment and HR matters across multiple legal entities, including labour law and employment-related contracts
* Manage external counsels where specialist advice is needed
WHAT WE LOOK FOR:
* Qualified lawyer, 7+ years of experience – in-house, law firm, or both
* Experience in a regulated or licensed business is a strong plus
* You handle a wide range of legal matters independently and to deadline
* You enjoy long, process-heavy projects – the result is a clean, compliant operation, not a headline deal
* Advanced user of modern AI tools; you use them daily
* Clear communicator - you explain complex things simply
WHY SHOULD YOU JOIN OUR TEAM?

* Fully remote from anywhere in the world
* Multiple jurisdictions, genuine variety of legal work
