General Counsel

The Role

The General Counsel is a critical leadership role responsible for all of Foundry’s legal, compliance and corporate governance matters. Sitting on the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) and reporting directly to the Chief Commercial Officer (CCO), the General Counsel will act as a trusted advisor to the CCO, the Executive Team, and our owners, Roper Technologies, Inc.

Foundry operates in a fast-moving global software market, with rapidly evolving AI technologies

and regulatory requirements. This is a hands-on leadership role enabling Foundry to pursue its growth targets within clear legal and risk operating boundaries. The core opportunity lies in positioning the legal function as a proactive, high-value commercial partner - removing friction from strategic enterprise sales, structuring product licensing, AI integration and internal rollout, and supporting Foundry’s expansion into adjacent market segments from pre-production through to post-production.

Working collaboratively across UK and US time zones with Sales, Marketing, Product, Finance, and People leaders (as well as Roper’s corporate governance functions) the General Counsel will combine strategic advice with hands-on management of complex transactions. They will lead the legal function through one direct report: the Senior Legal Counsel.
