Space Executive Hiring! Full Time Legal Counsel in - Ricebowl

Legal Counsel | Global Contract Manufacturing Platform | Singapore

About the Company

We are working with a well-established, Singapore-headquartered global contract manufacturer with over 20 years of operating history. The company designs, engineers, and manufactures products and components for a diversified portfolio of multinational blue-chip brands across consumer electronics, technology, industrial, and healthcare sectors, with manufacturing operations spanning Singapore, China, and Southeast Asia. Backed by a leading Asia-based institutional investor, the company is in an active growth phase with an eye toward future public market re-entry.

The Role

This is a hands-on, execution-focused in-house Legal Counsel role, ideal for a lawyer with strong drafting fundamentals who wants broad, varied exposure across commercial, compliance, and corporate matters within a genuinely multinational manufacturing environment. You'll work closely with business units on day-to-day legal needs, with complex or high-risk matters escalated to senior legal leadership. You'll be joining an established legal team reporting into the VP Legal.

Key Responsibilities

• Draft, review and negotiate NDAs, customer, supplier, and service agreements, supporting business teams on contract risk and obligations
• Provide practical legal advice to business units and corporate functions, including legal research and guidance notes
• Support compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and internal policies
• Assist with corporate secretarial and governance matters, including resolutions and filings
• Support disputes, claims, and pre-litigation matters, including fact-gathering and coordination with external counsel
• Coordinate trademark, patent, and other IP filings with R&D and external advisers
• Maintain legal templates, precedents, and records, and support legal process improvement initiatives
• Support the delivery of legal and compliance training across the organisation

What We're Looking For

• 2+ years of post-qualification experience, whether gained in private practice, in-house, or a mix of both.
• A general corporate or commercial legal background, with experience drafting and negotiating contracts; candidates from a purely litigation or purely IP-specialist background are less suited to this particular role
• Strong legal fundamentals, sound judgement, and the ability to work independently on day-to-day matters while knowing when to escalate
• Comfortable working closely with non-legal, operational stakeholders (engineering, procurement, production teams) in a manufacturing environment

Compensation & Logistics

• Indicative package in the region of SGD 100,000 to 105,000 per annum (fixed), plus variable bonus
• Based full-time at the company's office in West Singapore (Jurong East); this is a fully office-based role
• Enjoy leaving the office each day while the sun is still up!
