About the role

FLEX by Fenwick is a client service offering of Fenwick & West LLP that places experienced attorneys on interim in‑house counsel engagements. With FLEX, you set the parameters of the types of engagements you would like to hear about. We present those opportunities to you, and then you tell us whether you want to be considered for the position. Because of our affiliation with Fenwick, FLEX lawyers have access to unparalleled interim opportunities with the hottest startups and emerging companies, in addition to public companies and household names. We take the time to fully understand each attorney’s practice, depth of experience, and advising style to make sure they are perfectly positioned to be deployed into interesting and engaging projects. The FLEX model allows our attorneys to obtain work/life balance and career growth, whereas far too often in the legal industry one comes at the expense of the other. We are currently seeking attorneys with experience structuring and negotiating bank and credit union lending partnership/program agreements, whole‑loan purchase and sale agreements, and forward flow transactions. Lending and/or capital markets experience is highly preferred, as is experience handling these matters in‑house at a fintech company. Attorneys who have already onboarded with FLEX do not need to apply as you are already under consideration for active FLEX client needs. You can learn more about FLEX at www.fenwick.com/flex. If your experience is a fit for our current client needs, we will contact you. We hope to hear from you soon!

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
