Full-time | Remote with hubs in Kyiv, Warsaw and Riga | Mental Health Tech
pleso therapy is one of the fastest-growing mental health startups in Central-Eastern Europe. Operating in Ukraine, Poland, UK, and Romania, we help people find their ideal therapist in an anxiety-free and trusted way.
The most iconic Ukrainian business of 2021 according to AIN.UA.
We’re looking for a Senior Legal Counsel (Corporate & Investments) to join a fast-growing, venture-backed mental health startup operating across the EU+UK+UA.
In this role, you will work closely with the CEO and leadership team, supporting corporate structuring, investment rounds, due diligence processes, and M&A activities as the company continues to scale internationally.
This is a strategic, hands-on role focused on high-impact corporate and investment matters, including fundraising, group structuring, and transaction support rather than routine operational or day-to-day legal work.
Your Impact Areas
Corporate structuring & governance
* Support and evolve a multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction (UA, EU & UK) group structure
* Participate in company setups, restructurings, and corporate changes
* Ensure corporate documentation remains accurate, consistent, and transaction-ready
Investment & fundraising support
* Prepare and manage fundraising documentation, data rooms, and investor requests
* Support investment rounds and strategic financing initiatives in close collaboration with the CEO
* Review and structure investment-related legal documentation
Due diligence & transactions
* Coordinate investment and M&A due diligence, including document collection, structuring, legal checks, and summaries
* Support acquisitions, disposals, and partial exits, including legal risk analysis and deal structuring
* Ensure high-quality, well-organized legal documentation for transaction processes
Legal operations & compliance foundation
* Maintain and oversee core legal documentation of the company, including contracts with contractors, therapists, and key partners
* Review, update, and standardize contractual templates to support scalability and risk control
* Ensure legal compliance of the company’s operating model across jurisdictions (EU, UK, UA), in cooperation with external counsel where needed
* Monitor and address corporate compliance matters, ensuring alignment with applicable regulations and internal policies
* Act as a legal partner to internal teams on corporate and operational legal questions, providing clear guidance and risk awareness
Founder-level partnership & execution
* Work directly with the CEO on key corporate, investment, and strategic legal matters
* Personally draft, review, and structure legal documentation, not just supervise or delegate
* Support continuous improvement of internal legal processes and documentation structure as the company scales
Your Superpower Stack
* Proven experience in corporate law with a strong focus on investments, corporate structuring, due diligence and/or M&A.
* Relevant background in at least one of the following environments:
* Venture capital fund or investment firm
* Investment banking / M&A advisory or boutique
* Venture-backed startup, fintech, or scale-up with active fundraising and multi-jurisdiction operations
* Hands-on experience supporting investment processes, including:
* preparation and management of data rooms
* participation in investment rounds or M&A transactions
* Ability to understand financial logic and work with cap tables, investment mechanics, and financial materials.
* Hands-on execution mindset — comfortable personally drafting, reviewing, and structuring legal documentation.
* Experience working directly with founders, CEOs, or investors on corporate and investment-related matters.
Nice to have
* Experience with Ukrainian and/or UK legal frameworks.
* Exposure to multi-entity, multi-jurisdiction corporate structures.
