ABOUT APOLLO
Apollo Research is a rapidly growing AI safety and model evaluation company, providing third-party evaluations for frontier AI models. The capabilities of current AI systems are evolving rapidly. While these advancements offer tremendous opportunities, they also present significant risks, such as the potential for deliberate misuse or the deployment of sophisticated yet misaligned models. At Apollo Research, our primary concern lies with deceptive alignment, a phenomenon where a model appears aligned but is, in fact, misaligned and capable of evading human oversight.
At Apollo, we aim for a culture that emphasizes truth-seeking, being goal-oriented, giving and receiving constructive feedback, and being friendly and helpful. If you’re interested in more details about what it’s like working at Apollo, you can find more information here.
ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITY
This is Apollo's first full-time legal hire. You'll build and lead our legal and compliance functions from the ground up, establishing scalable systems and processes across UK, US, and select EU jurisdictions. The role combines setting high-level strategic direction with hands-on execution, spanning commercial contracting, corporate legal, employment/HR, IP protection, statutory reporting, fundraising support, and compliance management (75% operational expansion; 25% compliance oversight). You'll report to the COO daily and have the potential to grow into a General Counsel role as the legal group expands.
