The Opportunity
We’re seeking a General Counsel who will lead and modernize the legal function across the Skybox family of companies.
This is both a strategic and hands-on role, ideal for an experienced attorney who combines traditional legal expertise with a deep understanding of how AI can transform the practice of law. You’ll use AI and specialized legal software to research, draft, and analyze — ensuring the team engages outside counsel only when necessary and always with clarity and focus.
You’ll oversee legal, HR, compliance, and governance across a portfolio that includes entities in the U.S., Israel, Canada, and other jurisdictions — working closely with leadership to anticipate and manage legal risk while supporting growth.
What You’ll Do
- Lead all legal and compliance functions for Skybox Capital and its portfolio companies
- Use AI tools and legal-specific software (e.g., Harvey, CoCounsel, Spellbook, Casetext) to conduct research, draft contracts, and prepare analysis before engaging outside counsel
- Oversee HR legal compliance, supporting the Director of People and HR Coordinator
- Draft, review, and negotiate contracts and agreements across all operating companies
- Ensure state, federal, and international compliance, particularly for GoTickets, which operates across multiple U.S. jurisdictions
- Guide corporate governance and entity management across the Skybox portfolio
- Manage outside counsel strategically to ensure cost-effective, targeted use of resources
- Advise leadership on employment law, data privacy, cybersecurity, and risk management
- Support strategic transactions, including investments, acquisitions, and divestitures
- Develop templates, policies, and scalable processes for legal and HR documentation
- Oversee compliance for international offices and offshore employees in Israel, Canada, India, and the Philippines
- Coordinate with outside counsel on real estate and asset management matters at Magnolia Capital
- Monitor and advise on manufacturing and supplier agreements in China, Vietnam, and other international jurisdictions, leveraging AI to streamline review and due diligence
Who You Are
- J.D. and active bar membership (U.S.)
- 8+ years of legal experience, ideally including in-house experience with private equity, family offices, or multi-entity organizations
- Demonstrated proficiency using AI in legal workflows — drafting, compliance, contract review, and research
- Proven ability to manage complex, multi-jurisdictional legal environments
- Strong foundation in corporate, employment, and compliance law
- Skilled at balancing risk with business objectives and providing pragmatic guidance
- Experienced in managing outside counsel cost-effectively
- Excellent communicator with the ability to translate legal language into clear business recommendations
- Comfortable in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial, and global environment
- Curious, tech-forward, and constantly seeking ways to enhance efficiency and insight through AI
