General Counsel

About the role

The General Counsel will serve as the foundational in-house legal anchor for Allia Health Group and its entire brand portfolio. The primary mandate is to take end-to-end ownership of the commercial contract pipeline, establish automated template workflows, and clear transaction backlogs to accelerate velocity across our entities.

Responsibilities

• Take full operational ownership of the contract review pipeline and lifecycle management across all brand portfolio entities.
• Lead the configuration, workflow optimization, and company-wide adoption of the newly selected Ironclad CLM platform.
• Draft, review, and maintain efficient pace for a wide array of commercial agreements, including mutual NDAs, contractor agreements, influencer/brand ambassador agreements, master services agreements (MSAs), and pharmacy services agreements.
• Formulate robust contract templates, playbook standards, and clause libraries to prevent commercial litigation traps and insulate the portfolio from risk.
• Act as the initial internal legal gatekeeper, reviewing all external agreements and ensuring commercial parameters align with financial outlays before execution.
• Review and advise on contractual risk transfer provisions (indemnification, limitations of liability, insurance requirements, additional insured provisions, etc.) to ensure they align with the company's risk tolerance and insurance programs.
• Govern the legal frameworks underpinning multi-tenant digital health platforms, managing legal parameters for multi-brand data flows, zero-trust data sharing protections, and tenant isolation.
• Provide corporate support for friendly professional corporation models (such as Zito Care) and specialized Management Services Organization (MSO) frameworks.
• Collaborate with the Chief Compliance Officer and Chief Technology Officer on formalized intragroup data-sharing agreements and management service rules across parent and brand entities to ensure audit-readiness.
• Support legal due diligence and maintain secure, locked, ready-state data rooms to streamline upcoming capital markets, financing, and M&A activities.
• Manage, evaluate, and coordinate all workflows assigned to external legal counsel, ensuring optimal resource allocation and cost efficiency.
• Direct corporate and transactional outside counsel (such as Munsch Hardt Kopf & Harr, P.C.) on complex trademark coexistence agreements, M&A filings, and tax restructuring.
• Partner with specialized healthcare and FDA regulatory counsel (such as Buchanan Ingersoll & Rooney PC) to interpret digital health privacy guidelines, state-by-state telemedicine medical board positions, and cyber liability responses.
• Oversee legal vendor invoices, tracking billings by submatter and entity for granular corporate accounting.
• Support specialized outside counsel on corporate transactions, reorganizations, and legal structure validations for newly acquired or launching brands.
• Partner with the CFO to evaluate and advise on all enterprise, corporate general liability, and cyber insurance programs, manage risk logs, and provide legal parameters for commercial cash-strategy planning.
• Work closely with the Compliance Department (Chief Compliance Officer) to maintain a distinct, OIG-aligned separation of duties, keeping legal review separate from regulatory HIPAA, SOC 2, and pharmacy board tracking.
• Provide legal guidance and strategic support on employee relations matters, partnering with Human Resources and outside employment counsel on complex workplace issues.

Qualifications

• Juris Doctor (JD) degree from an accredited law school.
• Active member in good standing of the State Bar of Texas (required).
• 7 to 10+ years of progressive transactional legal experience, combining rigorous training at a reputable corporate law firm with in-house experience at a high-growth technology, e-commerce, or digital health platform.
• Exceptional track record in high-velocity contract drafting and negotiation, specifically commercial software, vendor, and multi-site healthcare agreements.
• Direct experience implementing or managing modern Contract Lifecycle Management tools (Ironclad preferred) and GRC frameworks is highly advantageous.
• High-level familiarity with multi-state corporate footprints and data privacy frameworks (HIPAA, CCPA, or TDPSA) is preferred.
• A build-oriented executive with elite analytical precision and an agile approach, capable of translating complex legal boundaries into practical, non-blocking guidance for fast-moving entrepreneurial teams.
• Compounding pharmacy experience (specifically 503A or 503B) or telehealth/digital health regulatory experience is highly preferred.
