Full job description
BLACKBULL Law House operates as a corporate legal management and business-support platform focused on helping companies, entrepreneurs, financial professionals, investors, and institutional networks manage legal documentation, commercial structures, compliance requirements, contracts, transactions, and business risks.
Our work is primarily focused on corporate and commercial matters rather than conventional court litigation. The Senior Legal Manager will therefore be expected to work closely with management, corporate clients, business professionals, financial experts, and external legal specialists.
POSITION OVERVIEW
BLACKBULL Law House is seeking an experienced Senior Legal Manager with a minimum of 5 years of substantive experience in corporate legal work and corporate work development.
This is not an entry-level legal position and is not intended for candidates whose experience is primarily limited to litigation or court appearances.
The selected professional will be responsible for managing corporate legal assignments from the initial business requirement through research, structuring, documentation, review, negotiation support, compliance coordination, risk identification, and final execution.
The role requires strong legal knowledge combined with commercial understanding, professional communication, documentation discipline, and the ability to manage multiple corporate assignments simultaneously.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES1. Corporate Legal Management
Manage day-to-day corporate legal requirements of BLACKBULL and its associated business/client network.
Review business requirements from a legal, contractual, compliance, governance, and risk-management perspective.

- Corporate Work Development
Understand a client’s business model, commercial objectives, transaction structure, and operational requirements before developing legal documentation.
Convert business requirements into practical legal frameworks and identify documentation, compliance, approval, and risk-control requirements.
The Senior Legal Manager should be capable of handling assignments independently rather than relying solely on predefined templates.
- Legal Research & Risk Assessment
Conduct detailed research relating to corporate laws, commercial arrangements, regulatory requirements, contractual obligations, business structures, and transaction risks.
Identify potential legal exposure and recommend practical mitigation measures.
Candidates should have the ability to distinguish between a commercially acceptable risk and a material legal or regulatory concern.
- Corporate Compliance & Governance
Support corporate governance and compliance requirements relating to business entities, directors, shareholders, contractual relationships, internal policies, and corporate transactions.
Working knowledge of applicable areas such as the Companies Act, corporate governance, RBI/SEBI-related frameworks, FEMA and cross-border commercial requirements will be valuable depending on the assignment.
The candidate will not be expected to provide specialist regulatory opinions outside their competence and should coordinate with appropriate specialists where required.
- Client & Management Coordination
Participate in meetings with Indian and international clients, business partners, consultants, bankers, investors, management teams, and professional service providers.
Understand client requirements, prepare legal observations, maintain documentation records, and coordinate completion of agreed deliverables.
Strong written and verbal English communication is essential.
- Transaction & Due-Diligence Support
Support corporate transactions through:
Legal due diligence
Document verification
Contract review
Risk identification
Compliance checklists
Transaction documentation
Conditions-precedent tracking
Legal observations and reporting

REQUIRED EXPERIENCE
Applicants must have:
Minimum 5 years of relevant professional experience in corporate legal work.
Preference will be given to professionals with practical experience in one or more of the following areas:
Corporate law, commercial contracts, corporate compliance, business structuring, transaction documentation, due diligence, banking/finance documentation, investment-related legal support, cross-border transactions, corporate governance, or in-house legal management.
Candidates whose experience is predominantly litigation should apply only if they also possess substantial corporate and commercial documentation experience.

Strong corporate legal knowledge
Excellent contract drafting ability
Strong legal research and analytical skills
Commercial and business understanding
Legal risk-identification capabilities
Excellent observation and documentation skills
Professional English communication
Client-management capability
Ability to manage confidential information

WORKING ENVIRONMENT
BLACKBULL’s legal assignments may involve interaction with corporate clients, banking and investment professionals, entrepreneurs, management teams, and international business channels.
The position may therefore require client meetings, business travel, extended documentation work, transaction coordination, and collaboration across different time zones.
Candidates should be comfortable working in a performance-oriented corporate environment where the quality, accuracy, and commercial usefulness of legal work are important.
WHAT BLACKBULL IS LOOKING FOR
We are particularly interested in a professional who can do more than simply review documents.
The ideal Senior Legal Manager should be able to:
Understand the business → identify the legal requirements → assess risks → develop the appropriate legal structure → prepare documentation → coordinate execution → maintain compliance and documentation control.
The candidate should approach legal work as a corporate management function and contribute to the development of commercially workable, compliant, and professionally documented business structures.
CAREER OPPORTUNITY
This position offers exposure to a diversified corporate ecosystem involving legal management, business development, financial and investment channels, corporate transactions, legal technology, institutional projects, and international business relationships.
Professionals demonstrating strong leadership, legal competence, commercial understanding, and consistent performance may have opportunities to assume broader responsibilities within the BLACKBULL ecosystem.
