Find your future at Revvity 

Overview:

Revvity is seeking a Securities & Corporate Counsel (Senior / Principal level considered) to join our legal team at our Waltham, MA headquarters. This is a high-impact role supporting our public company obligations across three core areas: SEC compliance and reporting, corporate finance transactions, and corporate governance.


You will play a critical role in preparing and filing periodic SEC reports (Forms 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K) and proxy statements, managing Section 16 insider trading compliance, and supporting the Board of Directors and its committees on governance matters. A key differentiator for this role is hands-on involvement in debt capital markets work, including drafting and negotiating credit agreements, indentures, and debt offering documents, and helping the business manage relationships with credit rating agencies. You will also serve as a director or officer of certain international subsidiaries.


Collaborating closely with finance, treasury, investor relations, and tax, you will help ensure Revvity's compliance with federal securities laws and NYSE listing standards. This position offers a hybrid work schedule, Tuesday through Thursday (days are flexible) onsite at our Waltham headquarters.

Duties and Responsibilities:

  • Support the preparation, review, and filing of periodic SEC reports (Forms 10-K, 10-Q, 8-K), proxy statements (DEF 14A), registration statements (Forms S-3, S-8), and other SEC filings, working with finance, accounting, and investor relations teams through each reporting cycle. Advise on Regulation FD compliance, beneficial ownership reporting (Schedules 13D/13G), and other ongoing disclosure obligations.
  • Prepare and file Section 16 reports (Forms 3, 4, 5) for officers and directors, manage pre-clearance procedures, support the administration of Rule 10b5-1 trading plans and the company’s insider trading compliance program, and advise on equity compensation plan registrations and related securities filings.
  • Advise on ongoing compliance with NYSE listing standards, including director independence and shareholder approval requirements.
  • Monitor and advise on corporate governance trends, proxy advisory firm policies, and emerging SEC rulemaking and regulatory developments that affect the company’s disclosure and governance obligations.
  • Support corporate secretarial functions, including preparing agendas, resolutions, minutes, and supporting materials for meetings of the Board of Directors and its standing committees (Audit, Compensation, Nominating & Corporate Governance). Maintain corporate records, organizational documents, and minute books for the parent company and domestic and international subsidiaries, including entity formations and reorganizations, dissolutions, annual filings, and registered agent coordination.
  • Serve as a director or officer of Revvity’s international and domestic subsidiaries, as needed, including compliance with all security clearance requirements such as FBI fingerprinting and similar background check processes.
  • Draft, review, and negotiate corporate finance transaction documents, including credit agreements, revolving credit facilities, term loans, indentures, bond and debt offering documents, and commercial paper program agreements. Manage and support relationships with credit rating agencies, including preparing and coordinating presentations demonstrating the company's creditworthiness and financial position in connection with ratings reviews.
  • Support M&A activities, including due diligence, securities law analysis, disclosure obligations, and Hart-Scott-Rodino and ex-US anti-trust filings.
  • Work collaboratively with other members of the legal department and cross-functional partners in finance, treasury, tax, investor relations, and human resources, and assist on projects as needed.
  • Perform other related duties, as assigned or requested, as knowledge of the business and legal skills evolve.
