Lead Counsel - M & A - REMOTE

Lead Counsel
Remote - USA
Boulevard provides the first and only client experience platform for appointment-based, self-care businesses. We empower our customers to give their clients more of the magical moments that matter most.
Before launching in 2016, our founders spent months interviewing salon managers and working behind front desks to understand their pain points so we could design a modern, user-friendly platform that meets the unique needs of their business. Our technology not only helps our customers survive but thrive. As Lead Counsel, you'll run commercial deals, answer the regulatory and product questions that come with operating a payments platform in a regulated market, and handle the everyday legal needs of a fast-growing company, mostly on your own judgment. Reporting to Boulevard's General Counsel, you'll work autonomously, partner directly with teams across Boulevard, and escalate only the genuinely novel, high-risk, or strategic matters. If you want broad scope, the trust and support to run with it, and the chance to help shape how Legal supports the business, this role is for you.
Serve as the dedicated legal partner to a portfolio of product and business teams, providing day-to-day legal counsel on high-impact, fast-moving initiatives.
Advise on a broad range of legal matters, including payments and FinTech, healthcare/MedSpa compliance, consumer protection, marketing, privacy, data governance, intellectual property, and dispute resolution.
Lead the drafting, review, negotiation, and management of commercial agreements, from strategic partnerships and payments deals to customer contracts and renewals.
Own and continuously improve contract templates, playbooks, and legal processes to increase efficiency and consistency across the business.
Partner closely with Sales and GTM teams to balance legal risk with business velocity and enable faster deal execution.
Collaborate with Legal Operations to build scalable workflows, automate repeatable work, and continuously improve how Legal supports the business.
Join a lean, highly collaborative legal team where you'll have broad ownership, direct business impact, and the opportunity to help shape how Legal scales alongside a fast-growing company.
Experience: 6 to 11 years of combined law-firm and in-house experience, ideally including time at a SaaS, payments/fintech, or other regulated technology company. Credentials: JD from an accredited law school and an active license to practice law in at least one US state.
Commercial depth: Strong command of technology and commercial contracting, with the instinct to balance risk and speed.
Comfort moving across commercial, regulatory, privacy, corporate, and employment questions, and the resourcefulness to get smart fast on something unfamiliar.
Business partnership: Exposure to payments or fintech regulation (money movement, processor or card-network rules).
Privacy experience (CCPA/CPRA, GDPR) beyond contract-level data terms.
Experience as an early or sole in-house attorney at a high-growth company.
