• Coordinate with the VP Debt Capital Markets and the SVP Corporate & M&A on cross-product transactions.
• Build strong stakeholder relationships across Finance, IR, Corporate Development, and external counsel.

About You

• 12+ years of capital markets legal experience, including senior in-house and / or top-tier law firm experience.
• Deep equity capital markets expertise, with comfort lead-counselling on SEC-registered offerings.
• Public company or pre-IPO readiness experience.
• Strong understanding of SEC reporting, disclosure controls, and Section 16 administration.
• Experience advising on Reg FD, Reg G, and earnings communications.
• Strong stakeholder management skills with CFO, IR, and external counsel.
