️ North American Counsel | Leadership Track Opportunity | Greater Nashville Area

 Nashville, TN Area (4 Days In Office / 1 Day Remote)
 $160,000-$170,000 Base + 20% Bonus
 Relocation Assistance Available
 Direct Path to Legal Leadership

Robert Half has partnered with a global organization to identify a North American Counsel ready to take the next significant step in their legal career.

This is a unique opportunity for an attorney who wants more than a traditional in-house role. You'll serve as the lead legal advisor for North America, partner directly with executive leadership, and gain exposure to a wide variety of legal matters spanning commercial contracts, corporate governance, compliance, employment, litigation management, and strategic transactions.
Designed as a developmental position, this role offers significant visibility, mentorship, and long-term growth potential for an ambitious legal professional seeking broader business and leadership responsibilities.

 The Opportunity
As North American Counsel, you will support operations across the U.S., Canada, and Mexico while acting as a trusted advisor to senior business leaders. You'll work closely with a highly respected General Counsel who is committed to mentoring future legal leaders and providing meaningful opportunities for professional growth.
This role combines hands-on legal work with strategic business partnership and offers the chance to build leadership experience through management of legal staff and ownership of key legal initiatives.

 Key Responsibilities
Serve as the primary legal advisor for North American operations
Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements
Manage litigation matters and oversee outside counsel
Support corporate governance, entity management, and board-related matters
Advise on employment law matters across multiple jurisdictions
Coordinate regional compliance initiatives in partnership with global compliance leadership
Assist with mergers, acquisitions, and other strategic business initiatives
Improve contract management processes, legal templates, and governance frameworks
Mentor and develop legal support staff while helping build the future legal team

⭐ Why This Role Stands Out

Broad legal exposure across multiple practice areas rather than a narrow specialization
Direct interaction with executive leadership and key business stakeholders
Opportunity to own and shape regional legal and compliance initiatives
Significant international exposure through collaboration with global legal teams
Strong mentorship from an experienced and business-oriented General Counsel
Clear long-term growth potential into more senior legal leadership roles
Opportunity to support products and services that make a meaningful impact on people's daily lives

Ideal Candidate
Active U.S. Bar admission
5+ years of legal experience
Strong experience in commercial contracting and business counseling
In-house experience preferred but not required
Exposure to corporate governance, compliance, employment law, litigation management, or M& A is a plus
Entrepreneurial mindset with a willingness to learn new areas of law
Strong communication and relationship-building skills
Naturally curious, proactive, and solutions-oriented
Interest in leadership, mentorship, and long-term career development

 Interested?
This opportunity is ideal for a Senior Counsel, Corporate Counsel, Commercial Counsel, or law firm attorney looking to broaden their legal expertise, partner closely with business leadership, and build a long-term career within a growing international organization.

For confidential consideration or additional information, please apply directly. Only candidates whose backgrounds closely align with the client's requirements will be contacted.
