Robert Half Corporation Jobs

Description

You will be supporting the global business which spans Australia, USA, Canada, Latin America, Europe and Africa. While you will be backed by a truly collegiate and supportive team, you will have the confidence to deal directly with the most senior members of the business, third party service providers, external counsel and negotiate directly with clients. You will naturally become to “go to” counsel for our USA and Canadian teams. Given time zones, you will be the sole legal counsel in the business for a portion of your day; this provides you with exposure to autonomy and responsibility but does require that you are comfortable and confident to work autonomously for periods of time.

· Reviewing, drafting and negotiating client contracts, which will also include foreign contracts, across a range of industry sectors.

· Providing legal support, drafting and negotiating a range of commercial agreements including NDAs, supplier agreements, consents, letters.

· Helping to manage and seek early commercial resolution of any disputes.

· Ensuring the delivery of accurate and commercial legal advice to the business across a range of disciplines.

· Identifying legal risks and identifying opportunities to provide legal input in line with business strategies.

While you will be a commercial lawyer at your core, there will be the opportunity to be involved in a range of disciplines including intellectual property, data and privacy, training, dispute resolution, employment and compliance and risk. We would support an interest in becoming a specialist in one or more of these areas.
