Job description
from Lemonade careersWe're looking for a General Counsel to own and lead Lemonade's entire legal, risk, and regulatory function. Reporting directly to the CEO, you’ll serve as the company’s chief legal advisor and one of the most senior leaders shaping how Lemonade navigates risk, scales globally, and operates as a public company. Lemonade’s current operations span the US, the EU, the UK and the Middle East.
We believe two things matter for every leadership role at Lemonade: leadership that sets the bar for excellence, builds high performing teams, and holds them accountable, and strategy that thinks several years ahead and turns ambitious plans into reality. These aren't buzzwords, they're how we actually work.
Our AI-first approach isn't just a tagline either. We're building the future of insurance with AI at the center, and we need people who are genuinely excited to learn and grow alongside these tools.
In this role you'll
Own all public company legal responsibilities, including SEC reporting, disclosure practices, insider trading compliance, governance, and Board/committee matters
Serve as a trusted advisor to the CEO, executive team, and Board on company strategy, material risk, regulatory exposure, litigation, corporate transactions, and reputational matters—leading with a business lens, not a defensive one
