This is an excellent opportunity to work at the intersection of commercial contracts, technology, innovation, and regulation within a dynamic international environment.
The role will involve advising on a broad range of commercial and technology matters, including:
1. Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial, technology, outsourcing, cloud, SaaS, and licensing agreements

You will be joining a collaborative, high‑performing team that supports mission‑critical commercial and technology activity across the business. The role offers exposure to complex advisory work, opportunities to influence policy and process development, and the chance to contribute to transformative legal initiatives.
