Job description

Mojay Holding is a DIFC-based investment holding company with a diversified portfolio across technology, robotics, mobility, and services. The GGC Office drives legal governance, risk, and compliance across the Group and its portfolio companies.

Why this role

You’ll gain hands-on exposure to contracts, governance, compliance, and transactions in a multi-subsidiary environment—supporting real matters, not mock exercises.

What you’ll do

Contract lifecycle support: Draft, review, and redline NDAs, MSAs, SLAs, and vendor agreements using approved clause libraries; maintain version control and approval trails.

Corporate governance: Help maintain entity registers, board packs, resolutions, and policy trackers (DIFC context), ensuring filing accuracy and deadlines.

Compliance ops: Assist with data protection (DIFC DP Law), AML/CFT checklists, and audit-ready evidence logs; update risk and obligations registers.

Legal research & memos: Prepare concise research notes on DIFC/UAElaw, IP, employment, and cross-border issues; summarize key takeaways for executives.

Transaction support (as needed): Build data-room checklists, track CPs, and help coordinate external counsel and counterparties.

Process & tooling: Improve clause banks, matter intake forms, and SOPs; support light automation and document hygiene across repositories.

What you’ll bring

Final-year or recent graduate in Law (LLB/LLM) or related field.

Solid legal writing, issue-spotting, and citation discipline; comfort translating legalese into business English.

High attention to detail, confidentiality, and follow-through.

Proficiency with Google Workspace (Docs/Sheets/Slides); bonus for exposure to Asana, contract tools (e.g., clause libraries/e-signature), or basic Excel.

Curiosity and composure working with senior stakeholders.

What you’ll learn / outcomes

How a group legal function runs governance and compliance across multiple portfolio companies.

Best-practice contract workflows and board/secretariat operations.

Building audit-ready evidence and obligations trackers.

Partnering with Finance/PMO on cross-functional risks and approvals.

KPIs for success

100% matters logged with owner, status, and due dates; ≥95% on-time deliverables.

Zero critical filing or version-control misses; clean audit trail for at least one policy/process.

At least one measurable process improvement (template, checklist, or automation) adopted by the GGC team.

Work authorization: Must have UAE right to work or be eligible for internship sponsorship.

Confidentiality: NDA required; strict adherence to Mojay Holding information security policies.
