COUNTED — CHANGES NIGHTLY20 SEP 2026 · 12:07 PM ET

Where are the in-house counsel jobs?

2,028 in-house counsel roles are open right now.

Litigation leads every practice with 503. New York leads every market with 246. Law firm roles are removed — this page counts companies, not firms. Find your practice down the left, your city across the top.

These numbers change every night.

This page was counted 20 SEP 2026 · 12:07 PM ET. The whole board is re-counted after midnight, so tomorrow every figure here will be a different number. Nothing on this page is a running total or an estimate.

Nothing in your row?

An empty cell does not mean there is no work there. It means we counted fewer than 10 roles, and we do not publish a cell that small — at that size a count can identify the employer. Regulatory, Tax, Privacy & Data had no cell that large anywhere, so they are not shown.

Tell us what you are looking for and we will build you a custom report: your practice, your city, every open role we hold, including the ones too few to print here. No charge, and nothing goes to an employer.

Found a cell worth a conversation?

Submit your profile blind: you upload your resume, review an anonymous summary, and choose where it goes. Nothing reaches an employer until you approve it, and never your current firm.
