Help Protect a Mission That Changes Lives.
Legal expertise can minimize risk. Great legal leadership can create opportunity.
At Mosaic, we're driven by one purpose: relentlessly pursuing opportunities that empower people. Every day, we support individuals through our multi-state Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) and Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities (IDD) programs to live meaningful lives within their communities—and we're looking for an experienced legal professional to help us protect and advance that mission.
This is more than an in-house legal role.
As Counsel within our Office of the Chief Legal Officer (CLO), you'll serve as a hands-on, day-to-day legal, compliance, and risk partner.
If you're energized by solving complex problems, building collaborative relationships, and making a meaningful impact through your legal expertise, we'd love to meet you.
Why You'll Love This Opportunity
- Partner directly with our Chief Legal Officer and cross-functional teams
- Influence strategy and day-to-day operations across a multi-state organization
- Work on meaningful legal matters that directly support people and caring communities
- Collaborate across Legal, Compliance, Risk, Operations, and External Affairs
- Join a mission-driven team where your work truly matters
What You'll Do In This Role
No two days look exactly alike, and that's part of what makes this role exciting.
You'll:
- Serve as a key legal partner to business operations, compliance, external affairs, and risk teams on operational questions, regulatory requirements, and claims management.
- Partner closely with Compliance and Risk on federal and state regulatory matters, including HIPAA/HITECH, Medicaid program integrity standards, and state-specific Medicaid/HCBS waiver rules.
- Draft, redline, and negotiate operational agreements, including MCO agreements, funding contracts, staffing agreements, leases, and vendor contracts.
- Oversee claims and litigation, coordinating with outside counsel, insurance, and risk management as applicable.
- Support corporate governance, including annual filings, board resolutions, meeting minutes, and governance documentation.
- Support legal due diligence and strategic corporate transactions.
- Translate complex legal concepts into practical, actionable advice for non-legal operators and cross-functional teams.
