Director, Corporate and Compliance Legal

Airtable is the no-code app platform that empowers people closest to the work to accelerate their most critical business processes. More than 500,000 organizations, including 80% of the Fortune 100, rely on Airtable to transform how work gets done.

Airtable Legal strives to provide proactive, realistic, and strategic advice that drives maximum business impact and reflects Airtable’s integrity, creativity, and ambition. This Director, Corporate and Compliance Legal position presents a unique opportunity to be a part of our talented legal team! We are looking to add a superstar to be our dedicated corporate and compliance counsel, who will drive all corporate and securities matters, and ensure we have a robust and public-company-ready compliance program.  This role will also offer the opportunity to hone and apply skills in other legal areas, including commercial, intellectual property, and legal operations.

What you'll do

  • Manage corporate legal matters, including corporate governance, private and public financing, M&A, securities law compliance, and equity administration.
  • Help lead public company readiness projects; prepare and manage all aspects of a potential public listing.
  • Oversee board meeting processes and documentation. 
  • Provide support and advice relating to the Company’s expanding international operations.
  • Create and manage corporate subsidiaries.
  • Ensure the Company remains compliant with all applicable corporate and securities laws and regulations, including potential future SEC requirements.
  • Build and maintain a robust, public company-ready corporate compliance program.
  • Drive the legal compliance “roadmap,” identifying compliance priorities, overseeing the Company Code of Conduct, project-managing new initiatives, and creating compliance-related tools.
  • Nurture an internal “culture of compliance” that affirms that the Company follows the rules, keeps our employees safe, and respects the rights and values of our customers.
  • Support internal investigations of potential compliance issues; create and deliver compliance policies and training.  
  • Build and maintain processes and infrastructure, such as playbooks, templates, metrics, and self-serve tools, to help scale the legal function.
  • Assist with other legal matters, including commercial, intellectual property, and legal operations.

Who you are

  • You have a JD or foreign equivalent with membership in at least one state bar.
  • You have 10+ years of legal experience, with a mix of in-house and law firm experience advising SaaS or other technology companies, preferably including experience taking a company public and advising on corporate compliance.
  • You have deep knowledge of corporate and securities law, with IPO experience preferred; a strong understanding of compliance program development and implementation; excellent communication and relationship-building skills; high integrity; and an ability to balance strategic thinking with attention to detail
  • You’re flexible, resourceful, and solution-oriented. While focused on your areas of expertise, you are interested in developing a generalist’s approach to in-house legal practice, so you aren’t afraid to work in new areas.
  • You are excited to help a growing company define its legal identity, to build process and repeatability where it is lacking.  You’re both comfortable saying you don’t have the answer, and confident that you can then go find it.

A "recently separated veteran" means any veteran during the three-year period beginning on the date of such veteran's discharge or release from active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval, or air service.

An "active duty wartime or campaign badge veteran" means a veteran who served on active duty in the U.S. military, ground, naval or air service during a war, or in a campaign or expedition for which a campaign badge has been authorized under the laws administered by the Department of Defense.

OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 04/30/2026

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
