Legal Counsel

About Harry's

Harry's Inc. started in 2013 with a specific goal: disrupt the shaving industry by creating an innovative, everyday product at a fair price. Since then, Harry's has expanded to Canada and Europe, developed relationships with retailers such as Target and Walmart, expanded our grooming brand into a personal care powerhouse, launched two new brands including Flamingo and Cat Person, and made our first brand acquisition with Lumē.

The key to our success? Our amazing people. From chemists, mechanical engineers, CX associates, to creative directors, sourcing managers, and logistics specialists, the Harry's team is composed of some of the most brilliant, diverse, and humble people you'll ever meet.

Our brands answer unmet consumer needs, but our company is a place of inclusion and innovation that attracts some of the brightest minds across industries, geographies, and backgrounds. Whether we have a team of 5 or 500, our core values and our startup mentality remain; we value continuous improvement and learning, teamwork and collaboration, creative problem solving, and open and direct dialogue and feedback.


Harry's is operating as a hybrid-first environment - for us, that means that we ask folks to come into our beautiful, 88,000 square foot SoHo office a minimum of 2 days per week, with flexibility to choose exactly which days work best for you. What will you get out of that? Bagels on Wednesdays and lunch on Thursdays, and fully stocked kitchens with snacks, coffee, and drinks everyday. Can't forget the free products and the opportunity to have some meetings without Zoom (remember what 2019 was like?)


About the Team

The Legal team at Harry's works cross-functionally and across geographies to address all of the legal issues facing Harry's, providing advice and assistance to the entire company and supporting Harry's various corporate, commercial and transactional initiatives.


About the Role

Harry's is seeking a talented attorney to join its Legal team as Counsel. The role will be based at Harry's headquarters in New York City. This is a great opportunity for an attorney who seeks significant responsibilities across a wide variety of legal matters, enjoys working closely and often cross-functionally with a broad spectrum of internal clients, and wants to play a meaningful role in building strong and scalable legal and compliance functions for a dynamic company. This is a true "generalist" role that involves significant commercial work, but also (to varying degrees) compliance, employment, transactional and other matters.


What you will accomplish:

  • Provide practical legal advice and support across a range of business functions

  • Draft and negotiate commercial contracts of varying complexity

  • Support growth initiatives relating to new products and brands

  • Advise on regulatory and compliance matters (e.g., data privacy, FTC, FDA)

  • Assist in the development of corporate policies, procedures and best practices


Experience and Qualifications:

  • Excellent academic credentials

  • 2+ years of relevant experience with a top law firm or in-house legal department

  • Significant exposure to sophisticated commercial, corporate or transactional matters

  • Experience advising consumer products and/or e-commerce companies is a plus

  • Member in good standing of the NY or other state bar


This Should Describe You:

  • You have outstanding legal technical skills

  • You admit when you don't know the answer and work hard to get it; you love to learn new things

  • You are adept at developing innovative solutions to complicated legal problems

  • You succeed by building strong working relationships with colleagues across levels, functions and teams, and you always think about how to help them excel

  • You are capable of owning projects from start to finish with minimal oversight and managing multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment

  • You thrive on direct, honest and supportive communication

  • You take your work seriously and yourself un-seriously


Here's who You'll Work With:

  • Reporting to the Director of Legal, you'll work closely with the other members of the Harry's Legal team

  • You'll work cross-functionally with all of Harry's key internal stakeholders, including the finance, marketing, product, people, retail and supply chain teams

  • You'll efficiently collaborate with outside counsel


Benefits and perks

  • Medical, dental, and vision coverage
  • 401k match
  • Equity in Harry's
  • Unlimited PTO and flexible working hours
  • Wellness and L&D stipends
  • One month sabbatical after 5 years
  • 16 weeks parental leave
  • Fun IRL and virtual events including happy hours, team building events, and parties on our rooftop
  • Free products from all of our brands

Harry's is committed to bringing together individuals from different backgrounds and perspectives. We strive to create an inclusive environment where everyone can thrive, feel a sense of belonging, and do great work together.

Harry's commitment to providing equal employment opportunities extends to all aspects of employment, including job assignment, compensation, discipline and access to benefits and training.

We respect the laws enforced by the EEOC and are dedicated to going above and beyond in fostering diversity across our company.

We can't quantify all of the intangible things we think you'll love about working at Harry's, like the exciting challenges we tackle, the smart and humble team you'll get to work with, and our supportive and inclusive culture. That said, our salary ranges are based on paying competitively for our size and industry, and are one part of our total rewards package, which also includes a comprehensive set of benefits and our equity program. The base salary hiring range for this position is $132,000-$181,500, but the final compensation offer will ultimately be based on the candidate's location, skill level and experience.
