About the role

Early Warning is seeking an experienced in-house transactional attorney to draft, review, and negotiate a broad set of commercial contracts across multiple business units. You will partner with privacy, security, and risk teams to deliver compliant, business-aligned guidance and templates, while overseeing outside counsel as needed. The role emphasizes strong negotiation and drafting skills, with eight years of transactional experience and bar admission.

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.
