Want to become a General Counsel, Chief Legal Officer or a Chief Compliance Officer? The path to the top often involves navigating a series of upward moves including becoming a Director of Legal, VP of Legal, Head of Legal or a Deputy General Counsel. Deputy General Counsel jobs are often the last step before an in-house attorney reaches a top level position, and many Deputy GCs are either positioned to succeed the current General Counsel or are in a great position to take a General Counsel, Chief Legal Officer or Chief Compliance Officer position at another organization. Remember, sometimes candidates have to look outside of their organization to move up. Want to chat with Deputy GCs and other in-house counsel? Join the InhouseBlog® Linked Group!
