About the Role
AltaML is seeking a Fractional Director of Legal to serve as the company's primary legal resource on a part-time, ongoing basis. Reporting to the CFO, this individual will own commercial contracting, corporate governance, and legal risk management, while managing outside counsel and supporting the company's board, investor, and cap table functions. This role suits an experienced legal professional — potentially supporting other clients or engagements in parallel — who wants a meaningful, embedded role at a growing company without a full-time commitment. Scope and time commitment will be revisited periodically as AltaML's needs evolve, with the possibility of transitioning to full-time.
Engagement Structure
Time commitment: Approximately 2–3 days per week (or equivalent hours), with flexibility based on transaction volume and business needs
Structure options: Open to contract/consulting arrangement or part-time employment, depending on candidate preference and tax/regulatory considerations
Availability: Responsive availability for board meetings, urgent contract turnarounds, and time-sensitive transaction matters, even outside core scheduled days
Compensation: Structured as a monthly retainer or day-rate, to be scoped based on anticipated hours; potential for equity component given AltaML's growth stage
This job description is intended to convey information essential to understanding the scope of the role and is not exhaustive. Time commitment, structure, and responsibilities may be adjusted as AltaML's needs evolve, including a potential path to full-time.
