About this role

As a Legal Counsel, you'll become part of the group Legal Commercial - People, Supplier & IP Team and work with regional and global teams on individual and collective employment law matters, mainly for our German market. These matters are critical to our continued growth as a business, and are the key to our ability to offer a best-in-class experience to our couriers, staff, and customers. You’ll be part of a fantastic team but will also need to be comfortable working independently, drafting and negotiating agreements, and working with key stakeholders to get the deal done.

• Provide advice on individual and collective employment law matters, including independently conducting and attending a variety of court proceedings
• Manage external counsel and cases with employer associations
• Close cooperation with and provide legal advice to a team of labour relations experts and other stakeholders on a broad variety of collective employment law matters, including negotiation strategies
• Advice to implement global concepts and vision in a locally compliant manner
• Develop and implement legal policies and procedures on works council handling to reduce external spend

What will you bring to the table?

• 5+ years of experience in collective employment law topics and procedural law, preferably from a combination of private practice and in-house roles
• In-depth knowledge of employment law, co-determination legislation, and jurisprudence
• Confident working across multiple teams and locations on an international scale
