Corporate Counsel

AccruePartners

THE TEAM YOU WILL BE JOINING
  • A well-established, growing organization continuing to invest in the evolution of its legal function
  • A collaborative, business-focused environment where Legal works closely with leaders across the organization
  • A lean legal team offering meaningful visibility, autonomy, and direct exposure to senior leadership
  • An organization that values sound judgment, responsiveness, practical problem-solving, and a team-first mindset
  • A strong opportunity for an attorney who enjoys working closely with the business and wants to make an impact beyond traditional legal review


WHAT THEY OFFER YOU
  • Direct partnership with senior legal leadership and meaningful exposure to business leaders across the organization
  • The opportunity to take ownership of substantive legal matters rather than operating as one layer within a large legal department
  • Broad exposure across commercial contracts, legal operations, employment matters, litigation management, and general corporate needs
  • The ability to help improve contracting strategy, templates, playbooks, processes, and policies as the organization continues to grow
  • A highly business-facing environment where Legal is expected to help move initiatives forward while appropriately managing risk
  • Long-term growth potential within an organization that values initiative, judgment, and ownership


LOCATION:
  • Hybrid flexibility in Charlotte NC


WHAT YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR
  • Independently draft, review, negotiate, and manage a wide range of commercial agreements
  • Lead negotiations involving vendor agreements, service agreements, partnership agreements, NDAs, amendments, settlement agreements, and other business contracts
  • Assess contractual and business risk and clearly communicate potential exposure and recommended solutions to internal stakeholders
  • Serve as a key legal contact for external business partners throughout the negotiation process
  • Partner with senior legal leadership on contracting strategy, policies, and broader business matters
  • Work cross-functionally with departments such as Sales, Operations, Finance, HR, and other business teams
  • Develop and maintain contract templates, negotiation guidelines, and playbooks to improve consistency and scalability
  • Help strengthen processes surrounding contract intake, drafting, review, approval, execution, and recordkeeping
  • Provide guidance and mentorship to legal support or contract administration resources
  • Assist with litigation management, legal research, employment matters, corporate transactions, and other legal department priorities
  • Manage multiple high-priority matters while exercising strong independent legal judgment


THE BACKGROUND THAT FITS
  • Juris Doctor from an accredited law school and active license to practice law and in good standing
  • 3-5+ years of relevant legal experience with meaningful commercial contract drafting and negotiation responsibility
  • Experience may come from an in-house legal department, law firm, or combination of both
  • Strong commercial instincts with the ability to balance legal risk and business objectives
  • Comfortable independently negotiating agreements and advising business stakeholders
  • Ability to translate complex legal concepts into clear, practical guidance for non-legal audiences
  • Strong organizational and prioritization skills within a fast-moving environment
  • Experience supporting a growing, multi-location, or operationally complex organization is beneficial
  • Employment law exposure is a plus
  • Self-directed, entrepreneurial mindset with a willingness to operate beyond narrowly defined responsibilities
