• 6+ years of relevant legal experience, including significant exposure to corporate governance and securities matters; top-tier law firm training strongly preferred.
• Experience supporting public company reporting and board processes preferred.
• Comfort operating in a lean environment with high ownership and limited bureaucracy.
• Demonstrated ability to manage multiple reporting deadlines and competing priorities with precision.
