Corporate Law + Litigation | Remote (Philippines)

Early Morning Shift | Foundational Legal Role

This is not a back-office legal position.

This role exists to build, protect, and govern ASG Platform’s legal foundation in the Philippines as we establish and scale our local entity.

We are looking for a Corporate Attorney who thinks strategically, works with discipline, and treats law as a business advantage, not a checkbox.

About ASG Platform

ASG Platform is a fast-growing international organization building a high-performance, globally integrated team.

We are currently establishing and scaling our Philippine legal entity, and this role will serve as one of the foundational legal seats of our local operations.

We do not operate reactively.

We plan, structure, and protect our organization with intention.

This role reports closely to leadership and plays a direct role in governance, risk management, and long-term compliance strategy.

Why This Role Exists

As ASG expands its operations in the Philippines, legal work is not an afterthought — it is infrastructure.

This role exists to ensure:

• Clean corporate formation and governance
• Disciplined regulatory compliance
• Strong contract and risk management practices
• Proactive litigation and reputation protection

This is not a role for someone who only “handles cases.”

This is a role for a lawyer who can operate in complexity and bring clarity, order, and protection to the organization.
