About the Privacy Counsel job
Privacy and AI counsel sit exactly where GRC meets the law: turning GDPR, state privacy statutes, and new AI regulation into rules a company can actually operate by. These attorneys advise on data use, AI deployment, vendor terms, and the regulatory exposure behind both. As the rulebook for data and AI rewrites itself, this is one of the fastest-growing legal specialties there is.
BLS put the 2024 median at $78,420. In 2026, market trackers show averages from roughly $99,000 to $120,000, with the top quartile above $160,000. Financial centers and senior governance roles sit at the top of that range.
