The posting

LA28 does not provide relocation assistance for any positions. If you are based outside the Los Angeles area, we still welcome your application — we value talent from all geographic backgrounds and want to hear from you if you are able to work on-site in LA.

Role Purpose

As Counsel, you help LA28 translate ambitious plans into enforceable agreements in the years leading up to the Olympic and Paralympic Games. You support the legal team on the transactions and partnerships that make the Games possible, from venue and construction deals to agreements with government and delivery partners. You will shape practical, well-drafted contracts where the playbook is still being written, collaborating across teams to manage risk and advance key decisions with visible impact in a demanding, high-trust environment.

Key Responsibilities

  • Support senior legal leaders on business transactions, from venue and construction agreements to deals with government and delivery partners.
  • Draft, review, and negotiate contracts, including confidentiality agreements, memorandums of understanding, and real estate documents.
  • Partner with teams across LA28 to anticipate, identify, and manage legal exposure and risk as the Games take shape.
  • Review core corporate and stakeholder documents, including the Host City Contract, Olympic Charter, and Code of Ethics.
  • Coordinate outside counsel on matters needing representation and keep the team current on evolving laws and regulations.

Required Competencies

  • Juris Doctor degree from an ABA-accredited law school; or 5 years of equivalent experience in corporate and transactional legal practice.
  • Active license to practice law and good standing with the California State Bar, with the ability to practice in California.
  • At least 5 years of transactional legal experience, with a thorough command of contract and corporate law.
  • Excellent judgment and analytical skills, knowing when to escalate and how to prioritize issues and evaluate alternative solutions.
  • Strong interpersonal skills to advise outside counsel, senior management, and business associates, with high integrity and confidentiality.

Valued Experience

  • Prior law firm or in-house legal experience.
  • Experience with construction, architecture, engineering, or real estate agreements.
  • Exposure to sports, live-events, or public law matters.
  • Familiarity with public contracting, lobbying, or gifting rules.
  • Demonstrated commitment to co-creation and collaborative decision-making.

What We Offer

  • A once-in-a-generation chance to contribute to a historic Olympic and Paralympic Games.
  • Broad exposure to complex transactions and senior stakeholders across the organization.
  • Meaningful ownership of legal work with real impact on the Games.
  • A collaborative, mission-driven team and durable, transferable legal experience you carry forward.

What This Role Means for the Games

This role keeps LA28 on solid legal footing as the Games take shape, because the agreements you draft and negotiate protect the organization, enable partnerships, and help deliver a safe, successful Olympic and Paralympic Games for athletes, fans, and the city of Los Angeles.

Physical Requirements & Working Conditions

  • Available to work onsite in our Downtown Los Angeles-based office.
  • The majority of work will be conducted in an office setting, requiring extended periods of time using computers, phones, and other office equipment.
  • The LA28 office is an open floorplan working environment; employees must be able to work efficiently in an open cubicle environment.
  • Hours of work may vary, including evenings, weekends, and holidays, especially during peak event periods.
  • Perform other duties as required; the role will evolve over time and may include operational responsibilities during the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
  • Manual dexterity: proficiency in typing and using office equipment, including computers, printers, and phones.
