The Opportunity

This is a newly created in-house Legal Counsel role with a well-established, international manufacturing company with a strong U.S. presence and long-term growth strategy. The company is intentionally investing in its legal department and seeking an attorney interested in building a long-term in-house career.

Based in Kaukauna, WI, this position offers hybrid flexibility (1–2 days remote per week) and direct mentorship from a senior in-house attorney. It is well suited for a 2–5 year attorney looking for a supportive, well-structured transition into an in-house role.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Designed specifically as an in-house transition opportunity
• Direct mentorship and hands-on training from experienced in-house counsel
• Broad exposure across commercial, operational, and corporate legal matters
• No expectation of prior in-house or manufacturing experience
• Hybrid flexibility while remaining Wisconsin-based

This is not a narrow or siloed role—there is real opportunity to learn how legal advice fits into day-to-day business decision-making.

Key Responsibilities

As Legal Counsel, you will function as a legal business partner, working closely with internal stakeholders and outside counsel. Responsibilities include:

• Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial agreements (sales, procurement, NDAs, etc.)
• Advising internal teams including Procurement, HR, Finance, Communications, and operations

Qualifications

• Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school
• Licensed in Wisconsin or eligible to practice as in-house counsel in Wisconsin
• 2–5 years of legal experience; law firm associates strongly encouraged to apply. Candidates with prior government or in-house experience are also welcome.
• Strong communication skills and a practical, collaborative approach
• Comfortable learning new subject matter and working across departments

Prior exposure to commercial, corporate, employment, or regulatory matters is helpful but not required. Manufacturing experience is a plus, not a prerequisite.

Compensation & Benefits

• Base salary: Around $120,000, depending on experience
• Short-term incentive bonus program
• Comprehensive benefits including medical, dental, vision, life insurance, and short-term disability
• Competitive 401(k) plan with company match
• Sustainable hours and long-term career development
