We are building a global SaaS-enabled marketplace for fast-growth SMB, mid-market and enterprise customers that helps marketers manage all their activities ranging from content creation to workflow management and content distribution. To fuel all this, we have some exciting plans, and we are looking for someone in the capacity of a Legal Associate.
About the Job Opportunity
As we scale rapidly, we’re expanding our legal function to support growing operational complexity, manage risk, and prepare for upcoming financing rounds. We’re looking for a Legal Associate who can go beyond legal execution – someone who understands the business, thinks strategically, and helps build legal as a function, not just a service.
This is an exciting opportunity for someone who enjoys program ownership, thrives in ambiguity, and brings a builder’s mindset to the table.
Job Responsibilities:
- Contract Management: Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements, including MSAs, NDAs, vendor and partnership contracts.
- Legal Program Management: Own and drive legal workflows, ensure process consistency, build internal documentation, and manage legal trackers and reporting.
- Business & Legal Strategy: Partner with leadership and cross-functional teams (Finance, Sales, Ops, HR) to align legal strategy with business goals.
- Due Diligence & Compliance: Support investment readiness by leading legal due diligence processes, maintaining corporate records, and ensuring legal and regulatory compliance.
- Legal Research & Analysis: Conduct deep-dive research and draft briefs, reports, and summaries to inform internal stakeholders and decision-making.
- CLM Enablement: Work closely on contract lifecycle management initiatives including contract abstraction, audit preparedness, and template development.
- Ad-Hoc Legal Projects: Support special legal initiatives across functions such as data protection, employment law, or IP protection as they arise.
Eligibility & Qualifications:
- Educational Qualification: LLB or LLM from a recognized institution.
- Experience: 2–3 years of legal experience in a startup, in-house, or fast-paced corporate setting.
- Program Management Skills: Proven ability to manage legal projects end-to-end with minimal supervision.
- Startup Mindset: A strong business sense with an understanding of how startups operate, grow, and make decisions.
- Communication: Exceptional written and verbal skills; ability to simplify complex legal concepts for non-legal teams.
- Agility & Ownership: Ability to switch gears quickly, work under pressure, and take full ownership of deliverables.
Additional Perks:
You’ll be at the legal forefront of a rapidly scaling startup. This role offers the autonomy to build legal processes from the ground up, work directly with leadership, and shape how legal contributes to the business. If you’re entrepreneurial, strategic, and action-oriented—this is the place for you.
