• Cross-functional Legal Support: Flag and coordinate employment, privacy, disputes, and governance matters.
• Business Enablement & Expansion: Advise on new market entries and strategic initiatives.
• Collaboration: Integrate into the Global Legal Team and contribute to knowledge-sharing.

• Licensed German Attorney (Volljurist/in) or equivalent.
• Fluency in German and English (written and spoken), and ability to negotiate and draft complex legal terms in both languages.
• At least 5 years of experience in commercial contracting, preferably with an international scope.
• In-house or law firm experience in consulting/procurement sectors.
• Familiarity with GDPR, ESG, and cross-border legal matters.
