Corporate Counsel, Securities & Governance

Fruitist is a modern food company on a mission to revolutionize snacking—and the numbers prove we’re well on our way. With over $1B in lifetime sales and $400M in revenue in the last year alone, we’re not chasing trends—we’re building a lasting brand at the intersection of health, sustainability, and innovation with our suite of snackable superfruits including berries and cherries.

Our momentum is powered by a leadership team drawn from the likes of McKinsey, Calm, Red Bull, and Netflix, and backed by global investors who specialize in consumer and tech-forward ventures. Together, we’re leveraging data, supply chain technology, and a sustainability-first model to disrupt a $500 billion-dollar industry.

We’re hiring builders. Operators. Creators. People who want to move fast, learn faster, and grow alongside a company that’s reshaping snacking. If you’re looking for a company where your work shapes the business—and your career accelerates with it—welcome to Fruitist.

Help build and contribute to Fruitist’s legal and governance foundation. You’ll own core securities and governance workstreams—Board and committee support, entity governance, securities compliance, and disclosure processes—partnering closely with the General Counsel, CFO, Finance, and executive leadership. This is a high-trust role for a sharp operator who can run complex matters independently, move fast without breaking things, and translate legal requirements into practical business outcomes.
