It provides a unified platform for businesses to seamlessly manage online and offline sales, store operations, inventory, and customer engagement. Serving over 2,300 brands, Fynd is at the forefront of retail technology, transforming customer experiences and business processes across various industries.

We are a multi-business platform reimagining retail through technology across fashion, commerce, logistics, fintech, and SaaS. As we expand into garment sourcing and global export, we are building from the ground up a specialized legal function to support this high-growth vertical.

Role Overview

We are hiring a Senior Legal Associate to lead the legal setup and operations for our new garment sourcing and export business. This role is ideal for someone who has built legal frameworks from scratch in sourcing/export environments and is ready to take ownership of contracts, compliance, and cross-border regulatory frameworks.

The selected candidate will work closely with Fynd's finance, procurement, and central legal teams to ensure legal integrity across all business activities in India and global markets.

What will you do at Fynd ?

• Legal Framework Setup:
• Establish the legal foundation for the sourcing and export business—vendor, buyer, and logistics contracts, SOPs, and governance structures.
• Set up scalable and audit-ready legal processes from scratch.
• Contracting & Negotiation:
• Draft, review, and negotiate contracts with Indian manufacturers, global buyers, logistics partners, and agents.
• Own end-to-end contract lifecycle management—commercial terms, liability clauses, IP protections, and dispute mechanisms.
• Compliance & Global Trade Regulations:
• Ensure full compliance with Indian laws (FEMA, EXIM, GST, labor) and international sourcing/export regulations.
• Stay updated on trade policies, documentation requirements (LCs, BoEs, shipping contracts), and buyer country-specific legal obligations.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration:
• Work in sync with Fynd's central legal team and other business units to ensure alignment of policies, risk posture, and contract standards.
• Advise procurement, business development, and finance teams on legal risks and mitigations.
• External Counsel & Risk Management:
• Coordinate with external legal advisors for complex international matters.
• Proactively identify and manage legal risks across sourcing and export operations.

Some Specific Requirements

• Bachelor's degree in Law (LLB) from a reputed institution; LLM or international trade law specialization is a plus.
• 5–8 years of experience in legal roles focused on garment/fashion sourcing, exports, or manufacturing.
• Proven ability to build legal systems and contract infrastructure from scratch.
• Strong understanding of Indian commercial/export law and key international trade frameworks (e.g., INCOTERMS, WTO rules, destination-country norms).
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
• High accountability, ownership mindset, and experience working with leadership teams
