Equity Partner –

Minimum Commitment: 20 hours per week

Department: Legal Guild – Employment Risk & People Infrastructure

Reports To: General Counsel

We’re not hiring legal help—we’re bringing on a founding partner to help design the employment systems of a global creative company from scratch. This is a rare opportunity to architect culture through law. To shape how talent is hired, managed, protected, and scaled—across a growing Canada team and beyond.

This is an equity partner role. That means:

• No upfront cash compensation
• Equity (shares) at founding partner level (vesting standard)
• Future token‑based rewards (pending legal approvals)
• Salary activates with revenue‑based milestones
• Remote‑first, async‑native, counsel‑to‑creation model
