We are looking for a Senior Employment Attorney with 10+ years of experience to help lead and grow the employment practice at a top-ranked boutique venture capital law firm.

- Advising companies and C-suite executives on employment matters, separation negotiations, and equity incentives
- Counseling on restrictive covenants, non-competes, and employment issues across multiple US jurisdictions (especially NY and CA)
- Supporting employment-related matters arising from the firm's venture capital and emerging company practice
- Drafting and revising employment agreements, separation agreements, offer letters, demand letters, and restrictive covenant agreements
- Handling employment litigation in state/federal courts, agency proceedings, arbitrations, and mediations as needed
Key Requirements
- Deep knowledge of employment law across the US, particularly New York and California
- Some level of portable business (even $300K-$400K is a "home run") — or demonstrated potential to develop one in the right environment
- Experience advising both companies and executives on separations, restrictive covenants, and employment strategy
- Admitted to and in good standing with the New York Bar
- Entrepreneurial mindset with a desire to grow a practice, not just service existing work

• Draft and revise legal documents
• Handle employment litigation in New York state and federal courts
