Head of Legal
About us:
At Pencil, we are driving innovation in advertising technology through our state-of-the-art SaaS product, which harnesses Generative AI to redefine content creation. Our mission is to make AI the default in advertising without replacing creative people. To achieve this, we need to make sure that our technology isn’t just in the hands of big brands - we need to try to help small businesses and creative individuals too.
We’re looking for a Head of Legal who will lead our legal operations, ensuring our client and vendor contracting processes align with our business strategy, evolving legal standards, and risk management requirements. To do this successfully, you'll need to understand the rapidly changing GenAI regulatory environment, expertly navigate complex contract negotiations, and position Pencil as a trusted leader in AI compliance and best practices.
Key responsibilities:
JD, LLB or equivalent law degree, and active membership in good standing of at least one state bar.
Minimum of 7 years of experience as a commercial or corporate attorney, specifically within the AI space.
Proven experience in negotiating complex contracts with clients and technology vendors.
