The posting

Airbnb was born in 2007 when two hosts welcomed three guests to their San Francisco home, and has since grown to over 5 million hosts who have welcomed over 2 billion guest arrivals in almost every country across the globe. Every day, hosts offer unique stays and experiences that make it possible for guests to connect with communities in a more authentic way.

Airbnb’s Legal Department is a global team that will require working with diverse international colleagues around the world. The successful candidate will be someone who is adaptable, collaborative and embodies Airbnb’s Core Values.

A genuine and demonstrated interest in Airbnb and a commitment to ethics, integrity and fostering a workplace that emphasizes diversity and belonging is a must.

The Community You Will Join:

Airbnb is seeking a business-oriented Senior Counsel with deep experience in global privacy laws and regulatory compliance to join our growing legal team.

The Difference You Will Make:

You will play a critical role within our global privacy and cybersecurity legal team, and work across multiple global teams and regions providing support and advice to Airbnb’s business. You must have excellent judgment in balancing legal risks with business strategy and a proven ability to learn new areas of law and function independently in a demanding fast-paced environment. We’re looking for a highly adaptable and collaborative person who can handle ambiguity and rapidly shifting priorities with flexibility, patience, and poise.

A Typical Day:

  • Advises on the intersection of privacy law and payments and insurance obligations globally, including PCI-DSS adjacencies, state and national financial privacy laws in the US, and international payment data requirements, as well as on the regulatory intersection of insurance laws and privacy laws across key markets, where insurance regulation introduces specific obligations, working in close coordination with Payments Legal, Payments Compliance, Insurance Legal, and regional Counsels where required.
  • Advises Commercial Legal in negotiating commercial contracts with payment processors and insurance providers.
  • Acts as a key cross-functional influencer with Payments and Insurance Legal and Privacy Management teams to identify and articulate privacy legal risks, requirements, and tradeoffs early in the product lifecycle.
  • Partners closely with the Lead Counsel, Product Privacy, Privacy Managers, Payments and Insurance Legal, compliance teams and regional product privacy counsels to align privacy guidance across geographies, ensuring consistent standards and localized compliance.
  • Monitors and advises on privacy legal and regulatory requirements related to data privacy requirements and supports associated compliance strategies for payments and insurance products and processing, including with respect to U.S. and other global privacy laws.
  • Provides advice and counsel to the Privacy Operations team on the implementation of global privacy compliance requirements related to data governance and data lifecycle management projects.

Your Expertise:

  • 8+ years of privacy law experience with depth in financial data privacy, payments, or insurance-adjacent regulatory contexts.
  • Demonstrated experience advising on global payments or financial services data practices in a B2C or platform context.
  • Experience working across legal, compliance, and commercial functions in a matrixed organization.

Technical / Domain Knowledge:

  • Strong understanding of the intersection of privacy law and financial data regulation, including CCPA, GLBA, PCI-DSS adjacencies, and equivalent international frameworks.
  • Familiarity with insurance data regulatory requirements and how they intersect with global privacy law across key markets.
  • Ability to advise on data minimization, legal basis, and transparency requirements for complex financial and insurance product features.

Leadership & Communication:

  • Ability to influence across product, payments, legal, and compliance stakeholders without formal authority.
  • Strong written and verbal communication; able to synthesize complex regulatory intersections into clear, actionable product guidance.
  • Comfortable managing a broad, global scope across two distinct product verticals simultaneously.

A Note on Recruiting Scams: Scammers sometimes pose as Airbnb recruiters to get money or personal information from candidates. A few things that will always be true for Airbnb’s hiring process: our open roles are posted on Airbnb’s Career’s Page at careers.airbnb.com, and our recruiters correspond only from @airbnb.com or @ext.airbnb.com email addresses. Our recruiters will never ask for your Social Security number, bank account details, passport, or payment app information while you are interviewing. We’ll also never ask you to pay a fee, send money, deposit or cash a check, or purchase work-related equipment (such as a company laptop) during the interview process. We encourage candidates to remain vigilant of these recruiting scams and not share sensitive information if you do not believe an individual is actually affiliated with Airbnb.

  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing
