Legal Drafting of CXO Employment Contract

Job ID: 39264659

Budget: ₹1,500 – ₹12,500 INR

I'm seeking a legal expert to draft a comprehensive employment contract for a CXO in my startup. This contract needs to be legally valid in India and incorporate ESOPs with a vesting period of 5 years.

Key Requirements:
- The contract should include standard employment terms, confidentiality clause, but not a non-compete clause.
- It should solely focus on time-based vesting for the ESOPs, without any performance-based vesting clauses.
- It should also have a severance pay clause that should provide for a severance pay if the employment is terminated before 3 years with accelerated vesting of ESOPs in the current calendar year in case of termination.
- The contract should also have incentive payout specified based on financial targets specified.
- The contract needs to be well-structured, clear, and legally sound to protect both the interests of the startup and the employee.

Ideal candidates for this project:
- Should have extensive experience in drafting employment contracts, particularly for CXO level positions.
- Must have a strong understanding of ESOPs and vesting options.
- Legal expertise in Indian employment law is a must.
- Prior experience with startups will be an added advantage.
- Excellent drafting skills with a keen eye for detail.
