Corporate Counsel

Entrusted Advisors

Corporate Counsel

Contracts & Transactions Attorney (In-House Secondments)

Entrusted Advisors is expanding our talent bench of attorneys. We place experienced in house counsel attorneys and legal professionals directly with in-house corporate legal teams across industries including energy, healthcare, technology, financial services, insurance, and more.

We're currently seeing steady demand for corporate generalists, contracts managers/counsel, and transactional attorneys across a range of PQE levels.

What You Will Work On:

  • Corporate generalist support — day-to-day legal counsel to business teams, policy and process guidance, cross-functional advising
  • Commercial contracts — drafting, reviewing, and negotiating a high volume of agreements (MSAs, SaaS/technology agreements, vendor and procurement contracts, NDAs, service agreements)
  • Transactional work — M&A due diligence, corporate governance matters, entity formation and restructuring, SEC/regulatory filings
  • Contract management — playbook development, CLM tools, AI-assisted contract review, dispute/demand-letter resolution

What We're Looking For

  • J.D. and active bar admission in at least one U.S. jurisdiction (in good standing); candidates with strong contract management backgrounds without a J.D. may also be considered depending on the engagement
  • In-house and/or law firm experience in corporate, contracts, or transactional practice
  • Any level of post-qualification experience — from early-career attorneys with solid contracts experience through 20+ year veterans; we place across the full spectrum
  • Comfortable working independently and ramping quickly in a new organization
  • Available for contract, interim, or project-based engagements (full-time or part-time, depending on the role)
  • Based in the U.S. and able to work U.S. business hours

Why Entrusted Advisors

Entrusted Advisors connects experienced attorneys with opportunities to support innovative, industry-leading clients through flexible, project-based, and long-term engagements. Joining our bench means:

  • Exposure to cutting-edge legal work with global brands
  • Flexible and remote-friendly engagement structures
  • Competitive hourly compensation, benefits, and professional development opportunities
  • A supportive, mission-driving legal services community that values your expertise and career growth
