About the Role
As Director, Legal - Securities and Governance, you’ll lead all aspects of Stitch Fix’s public company securities reporting and corporate governance obligations. Reporting to the Chief Legal Officer, your responsibilities will include external reporting and disclosures, board and committee governance, as well as managing the company’s stock plan manager. You’ll also regularly counsel internal business teams on the varied strategic and operational issues that arise when you’re part of a small legal team at an innovative, tech- and data science-enabled apparel retailer.
Our preference for this highly collaborative role is that you’d work in Stitch Fix’s downtown San Francisco, CA headquarters two or three days a week, with flexibility. Remote candidates will also be considered.
