Legal Operations Manager (Hybrid - Oakland)

We are seeking a highly motivated, self-sufficient, and detail-oriented individual to join our growing legal team. This role will work closely with the VP of Legal and business stakeholders across all levels of the company.

This position doesn’t exist today, so you will have a real chance to make the job your own. We are hiring builders here at Teleport. And you will have a chance to make an impact, every single day.

This position is an excellent opportunity for someone with experience working with an in-house Legal department to play a key role in building the processes, policies, and capabilities needed to support the dynamic growth of a category-creating company. Come join us!

This role is a hybrid and the expectations will be in office two days a week.
