Since its founding in 2019, over 1400 partners—a range of nonprofit organizations, national political committees, and individual campaigns—have utilized Civitech’s tools to reach tens of millions of voters to help create a more equitable and progressive democracy.
The General Counsel will serve as Civitech's primary legal advisor, providing guidance on contracts, corporate governance, employment matters, compliance, risk management, and vendor relationships. This role will help ensure the company's legal framework supports growth while appropriately managing risk.
The ideal candidate is a practical business partner with deep expertise in business law, employment law, workforce compliance, and risk management. Experience advising organizations with remote, multi-state workforces and complex contractor relationships is highly desirable.
Experience with election law, campaign finance law, voter engagement programs, political communications, or campaign operations is a strong plus.
