Remote Securities Lawyer

About the Role

Are you a sharp legal thinker with a flair for financial storytelling? We’re searching for a Remote Securities Lawyer who brings not just regulatory expertise but also a spark of creativity. This is your chance to work with a legal team that values innovative solutions as much as courtroom precision. If you're the kind of professional who dreams in disclosures and dances with compliance, let’s talk.

Our Journey

Once a small legal consultancy operating from a single co-working space, we've since grown into a dynamic, globally connected force that shapes the way securities law supports modern business. We operate on principles of integrity, openness, and transforming complex regulations into empowering legal strategies. Today, we navigate the ever-evolving regulatory landscape with cutting-edge tools, big ideas, and a team that believes legal work should be both brainy and bold.

Key Responsibilities

  • Draft, review, and file complex SEC disclosures, including 10-Ks, 10-Qs, 8-Ks, and S-1s.
  • Provide strategic legal advice on capital market transactions, including IPOs, SPACs, and private placements.
  • Counsel internal stakeholders on securities compliance issues and investor communications.
  • Interpret federal securities laws and regulations, including relevant U.S. federal laws governing securities offerings and public disclosures.
  • Partner with cross-functional teams on ESG reporting, insider trading policies, and proxy statements.
  • Monitor shifts in financial regulations and proactively communicate their impact to clients.
  • Lead legal due diligence for acquisitions and financial audits.

Work Environment

You’ll be working from wherever you feel most brilliant – your couch, a cabin, or a co-working space with a killer espresso machine. Our remote-first legal team thrives in a high-trust, high-autonomy setup. Expect regular brainstorm sessions (with some surprising memes), virtual legal roundtables, and creative discussions that blend finance, compliance, and strategy.

Tools & Tech Stack

  • LegalTech platforms: Workiva, Diligent, iManage
  • Communication: Slack, Zoom, Notion
  • Collaboration: Google Workspace, DocuSign, Trello
  • Research & Compliance: LexisNexis, Westlaw, SEC EDGAR database
  • You’ll also have access to AI-enhanced contract analysis tools—don’t worry, they assist, not replace!

What You Bring

  • A licensed attorney with 8+ years of experience focused on securities law, capital markets, or public company legal compliance.
  • Deep knowledge of U.S. federal securities regulations and financial reporting standards.
  • Proven experience with SEC filings and disclosures.
  • Ability to translate legalese into clear, engaging communication.
  • Strong critical thinking blended with a good dose of creative problem-solving.
  • Comfort working autonomously in a remote environment, juggling multiple projects.
  • Bonus points if you’ve worked with startups, tech companies, or innovative financial institutions.

What Makes You Stand Out

  • You thrive in ambiguity and can spot opportunities in murky regulatory waters.
  • Your legal advice doesn’t sound like it came from a dusty law book.
  • You understand the pulse of capital markets and enjoy staying ahead of the curve in financial reforms.
  • You bring empathy to negotiations and can build trust across virtual teams.

Compensation & Perks

  • Annual Salary: $100,602 (USD)
  • Flexible remote schedule with asynchronous collaboration
  • Generous PTO and paid holidays
  • Learning stipends for legal certifications, online courses, or mental wellness
  • Surprise virtual celebrations (yes, legal trivia and digital wine tastings included)

Your Growth Path

This role is more than checking boxes on disclosures. It's about helping businesses go public, navigate audits, and build investor trust. You’ll collaborate with visionary CFOs, tech-forward legal teams, and policy thinkers. Whether you want to lead a securities division, consult on cross-border deals, or become a go-to expert in ESG compliance, this is your launchpad.
