Employment Counsel, Americas
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. However we must only include sections when posting has real specific content. We need to map content to these headings.
We have:
- About the role: could be "What You’ll Do" or "About The Team". Probably "About the role" heading with description of role (What You’ll Do). We'll include that.
- Responsibilities: we have a "Responsibilities" section with bullet list.
- Requirements: could be "Minimum Qualifications" (requirements). We'll use Requirements heading.
- Qualifications: could be "Preferred Qualifications". We'll use Qualifications heading.
- Skills: maybe not explicit; we could omit if no specific skills list. The posting mentions skills like "ability to translate complex legal...", "high motivation", etc. Those are more qualifications. Could treat as Skills but we have Qualifications already. Probably better to omit Skills if not explicit list.
- Benefits: not mentioned besides compensation range. No benefits details. So omit Benefits.
- Pay: we have Compensation Range: $130K - $200K. So include Pay heading with that.
- Schedule: not mentioned. Omit.
Also we might include "About the company" maybe not needed as heading? The instruction says use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings? It says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). Likely they expect only those headings. So we should map content to those headings. If a heading doesn't have content, omit it.
Thus we will produce:
About the role
About the role
... (content from What You’ll Do and maybe About The Team)
Responsibilities
- ... ...
Requirements
... Minimum Qualifications content (maybe as list)
Qualifications
... Preferred Qualifications content
Pay
Compensation Range: $130K - $200K
We must preserve all substantive information, not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include the details from Minimum Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications exactly as given, but we can format asor
- . The instruction: Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. For Minimum Qualifications, it's a list of items. So we should use
- . Similarly for Preferred Qualifications.
For About the role: we need to combine "What You’ll Do" and maybe "About The Team" into prose. We'll keep it as
with the combined text. We must not repeat job title as heading. Not include Job ID etc. Remove boilerplate like Applicant Safety Policy, Equal opportunity, etc. Also remove navigation/legal/EEO etc. So we will omit those sections. We need to preserve all substantive information: that includes the description of Airwallex, Attributes We Value, About The Team, What You’ll Do, Responsibilities, Who You Are (maybe we incorporate into About the role?), Minimum Qualifications, Preferred Qualifications, Compensation Range. Also maybe the "Attributes We Value" could be part of About the role? It's about what they value. Could be included in About the role paragraph. We must not invent or summarize away detail: we need to keep the specifics. We'll need to include the bullet points exactly. Let's extract text. About Airwallex paragraph: "Airwallex is the only unified payments and financial platform for global businesses. Powered by our unique combination of proprietary infrastructure and software, we empower over 250,000 businesses worldwide – including Brex, Navan, Qantas, SHEIN and many more – with fully integrated solutions to manage everything from business accounts, payments, spend management and treasury, to embedded finance at a global scale.

If you’re ready to do the most ambitious work of your career, join us." Attributes We Value: "We hire successful builders with founder-like energy who want real impact, accelerated learning, and true ownership. You bring strong role-related expertise and sharp thinking, and you’re motivated by our mission and operating principles. You move fast with good judgment, dig deep with curiosity, and make decisions from first principles, balancing speed and rigor. You're humble and collaborative; turn zero‑to‑one ideas into real products, and you “get stuff done” end-to-end. You use AI to work smarter and solve problems faster. Here, you’ll tackle complex, high‑visibility problems with exceptional teammates and grow your career as we build the future of global banking. If that sounds like you, let’s build what’s next." About The Team: "Legal & Licensing at Airwallex sits at the heart of the decisions that shape how Airwallex grows. This team backs the visionary builders transforming Airwallex into a generational financial company, sharing the journey of product development and sales alongside our business partners. You’ll help shape a global licensing footprint most fintechs wish they had, while making sure our brand and data architecture stay best-in-class for customers entering the agentic economy and ready for its regulatory demands. The hard part is helping the business move fast on product, revenue, and new-market expansion without compromising the regulatory discipline that protects the moat." What You’ll Do: "You'll be the Employment Counsel for Airwallex in the Americas, and a hands-on partner to our People & Talent team on the issues that carry the most risk: terminations, workplace investigations, employee relations, and the policies that govern how 3,000+ people across 20+ markets work. You'll own US employment law directly and coordinate advice across other jurisdictions with our external counsel panel. Because Airwallex operates through licensed entities in most of its markets, you'll also work on questions that a generalist employment lawyer rarely sees: contractor and EOR classification across borders, remote work and mobility exposure, and conduct and remuneration matters in regulated entities. This role suits someone who wants to build the playbooks and templates a scaling employment function runs on, not just answer tickets. This role is based in San Francisco, New York, or Seattle." Responsibilities bullet list: - Advise the People & Talent team and business leaders on the full employee lifecycle, including hiring, contracts and variations, performance management, accommodations, leaves, wage and hour compliance, and terminations. - Lead workplace investigations and sensitive employee matters end-to-end, working with the cross-functional People and Legal working group. - Draft, refresh, and own employment-related policies and templates. - Manage employment disputes, agency charges, and litigation, instructing and controlling external counsel and associated legal spend. - Coordinate multi-jurisdiction employment advice across APAC, EMEA and the Americas, including contractor and employer-of-record arrangements, cross-border remote work and mobility risk. - Advise on compensation, benefits, and equity matters in a private company context. Who You Are: "We're looking for people who meet the minimum requirements for this role. The preferred qualifications are great to have, but are not mandatory." Minimum Qualifications list: - J.D. degree (or foreign equivalent) and active membership in at least one US state bar (California, Washington, or New York preferred) - 5+ years of employment law experience at a leading law firm and/or in-house legal department, with demonstrated employment counseling experience beyond litigation alone - Experience advising on and coordinating employment law advice across multiple jurisdictions - Experience leading workplace investigations and managing employment disputes, agency charges, or tribunal matters - The ability to translate complex legal and risk issues into clear, succinct, and actionable guidance for non-legal audiences - High motivation and the ability to operate independently and pivot quickly within a fast-paced, rapidly changing environment Preferred Qualifications list: - Experience at a fintech, payments company, or other highly regulated business - Experience with contractor classification, employer-of-record populations, or cross-border remote work and permanent establishment risk - A learner's mentality: you are consistently looking to take on new and diverse challenges and expand your knowledge and practice beyond your current areas of expertise - Comfort operating across time zones with a globally distributed team, including colleagues based in APAC and EMEA Compensation Range: "$130K - $200K" We need to output only HTML fragment, no markdown fences.

But we must be careful not to lose any detail. We'll include all those paragraphs as separatemaybe? The instruction says use
