Job description

NOTE: This is a FULLY remote role, but the candidate must be within the European time zones to collaborate with their peers and customers. You do not have to be in the specific country or city shown in this listing, but please do not apply if you are not physically based within the region.

Hostaway is a SaaS startup that is transforming the vacation rental industry. With innovative solutions and partnerships with giants like Airbnb, VRBO, and Booking.com, we're taking on the competition and winning. Leveraging our customer-centric core values, we consistently deliver results that encourage growth, learning, and innovation for our team, our customers, and the industry.

As a profitable and growing company, this role is necessitated by our continued growth and commitment to our Core Values

Reporting directly to the COO, this role will be the initial touchpoint for all things legal in the company. We’re looking for a European-based, business-minded legal professional who is a versatile generalist that is willing and experienced in rolling up their sleeves to tackle topics ranging from corporate to commercial, employment, and privacy law across a variety of jurisdictions. While this is an individual contributor role, it won’t be without internal and external support. This role is part in-house counsel and part legal project manager! 

On any given day you might be negotiating a commercial agreement with a vendor, working with outside counsel on a critical employment matter, and leading a privacy audit with a third party. The work is very diverse and fast-paced.

We’re a very lean and agile organization. If your background is very corporate and structured or from a large firm, this is not the right job for you.

Also, approaching the work with the right mindset is critical. The primary function of this role is to enable the business to move quickly so we can continue to develop and deploy new solutions to meet the demands of our customers. If you approach legal work from a default vantage point of “protecting the business”, this role is not for you. We believe that the best way to protect the business is to enable our team and customers to get their work done.
