Lead Counsel - Securities, Governance and M&A

Legal

Remote - USA

HubSpot’s Legal team is a proactive, business-enabling partner—not a back-office function. We help our teams move fast, smart, and responsibly, balancing innovation with rigor so HubSpot can scale as a publicly traded, AI-native company while maintaining trust, compliance, and clarity. 

Role Summary

You will serve as a strategic architect of HubSpot’s public reporting and governance functions. We are a high-leverage team of corporate specialists; in this role, you will own the execution of our SEC disclosures and Board corporate secretarial processes with the versatility capable of driving M&A and other corporate legal projects. We are seeking a high-judgment practitioner who doesn't just manage existing workflows but actively re-engineers them using AI and automation to drive clinical efficiency. This is a hands-on execution role - you will own end-to-end delivery across your workstreams and are expected to bring the same rigor to process and logistics as to legal judgment.

This is an individual contributor role reporting to the Director of Corporate Legal.

In This Role, You Will

1. Own Public-Company Reporting and Securities Compliance

  • Prepare, review and/or file SEC reports, including Forms 10‑K, 10‑Q, 8‑K, proxy statements, and Section 16 reports, and support associated disclosure-control processes.
  • Partner with Finance, Accounting, and Investor Relations on earnings releases, scripts, Q&A, and investor communications to keep legal, financial, and narrative disclosures aligned.
  • Contribute to continuous improvement of disclosure processes, documentation, and controls—identifying gaps, proposing solutions, and helping to implement fixes at scale.

2. Execute Board Operations and Support Corporate Governance

  • Lead Board and committee materials preparation process (including preparation of agendas, pre-reads, and resolutions), coordinate timelines, and support accurate, timely minutes and records.
  • Answer governance questions on director independence, committee charters, key policies, and insider-trading compliance, working closely with senior corporate legal leaders.
  • Execute proxy and annual meeting workstreams, including stakeholder and proxy-advisor engagement and logistics in partnership with Finance and IR.

3. Support Strategic Transactions and other Corporate Priorities

  • In partnership with other senior Corporate legal attorneys, draft, review, and negotiate core deal documentation, coordinate due diligence across functional teams, and contribute to repeatable M&A playbooks, checklists, and templates so future transactions can run more efficiently.
  • Serve as a multi-tool generalist who will execute other Corporate legal priorities as they arise, including supporting compliance and corporate housekeeping matters.

4. Help Build an AI-First Corporate Legal Function

  • Your superpower is a passion for efficiency. You will pilot and refine AI- and automation-enabled workflows in areas like disclosure drafting, governance monitoring and board materials.
  • Contribute to templates, playbooks, and self-service tools that make complex corporate and securities work more automated, approachable and drive quality.

What You’ll Bring

Required Qualifications

  • 10+ years of corporate and securities law experience at top law firms and/or in-house, with at least four years of meaningful exposure in an in-house role to public-company disclosure work.
  • Deep understanding of ’33 and ’34 Act reporting, Section 16 compliance, Rule 10b5‑1 plans, stock-exchange rules, and core corporate-governance best practices.
  • Extensive experience supporting Boards and/or Board committees on governance, reporting, and annual-meeting matters.
  • Deal experience supporting M&A and strategic investments, including drafting and negotiating core transaction documents and coordinating cross-functional execution.
  • Comfort working in a fast-moving, global technology company and collaborating directly with cross-functional partners.
  • Curiosity and passion for using AI tools in your day-to-day work.
  • JD from an accredited law school and active bar membership in at least one U.S. jurisdiction.
