About Packsize

Packsize is redefining the way businesses and their customers use and experience packaging around the world. We build the technology, design the right solutions, and automate the processes that propel the industry forward. To us, packaging is much more than a box—it’s delivering what’s right for our customers, their customers, our people, and the planet.

Job Description

Packsize is looking for a Corporate Counsel to be a trusted legal partner to the business, someone who enjoys translating complex legal issues into practical, business‑friendly guidance. In this role, you’ll support our Legal team and collaborate closely with cross‑functional partners across Sales, Finance, IT, Operations, HR, and our Europe business unit, helping to drive growth while managing risk. This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially minded attorney who wants hands‑on responsibility, exposure to international work, and a front‑row seat to how a global manufacturing and technology company operates.

What You’ll Do

• Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements, including master service agreements (MSAs), statements of work (SOWs), vendor and supplier agreements, and other transactional documents.
• Partner directly with business stakeholders to provide clear, pragmatic legal advice that supports company objectives and enables smart, efficient deal‑making.
• Support and advise the Europe business unit on commercial agreements and contract matters, working across time zones and legal frameworks.
• Manage the end‑to‑end contract lifecycle, from intake and negotiation through execution and ongoing compliance, using Packsize’s contract lifecycle management (CLM) system.
• Monitor key contract terms, obligations, renewals, and risks, ensuring timely escalation and alignment with business commitments.
• Assist in resolving contract‑related questions, disputes, and compliance issues in collaboration with senior members of the Legal team.
• Conduct legal research and help develop and continuously improve contract templates, policies, playbooks, and best practices.
• Contribute to broader corporate, regulatory, and compliance initiatives as projects evolve.

What You’ll Bring

• Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school.
• Admission to (or eligibility for) at least one U.S. state bar.
• 2–6 years of relevant legal experience, ideally in commercial contracting, corporate transactions, or an in‑house legal role.
• Strong foundation in contract law, commercial terms, and risk allocation.
• International commercial experience is a plus, particularly supporting European or other non‑U.S. business teams.
• Experience working with CLM systems and legal technology tools.
• Excellent drafting and negotiation skills, with the ability to balance legal rigor and business practicality.
• Proven ability to manage multiple matters independently while maintaining strong attention to detail.
• Strong communication and relationship‑building skills, with a collaborative and solution‑oriented mindset.

What We Offer

• A comprehensive benefits package including medical, dental, and vision coverage; a 401(k) retirement plan; Paid Time Off; Health Savings and Flexible Spending Accounts (HSA/FSA); and life and disability insurance.
• Additional voluntary benefits such as critical illness, hospital indemnity, accident, and legal/ID theft protection.
• Employee Assistance Program (EAP) to support overall well‑being.
