About the Role:
The role will have a commercial law focus involving a variety of transactional work and research into laws and regulations in the APAC region. The successful candidate will primarily assist more senior lawyers within the team in drafting and negotiating large, complex and high value outsourcing commercial contracts, often involving service delivery across multiple jurisdictions in the Asian Region and elsewhere in the world. In due course, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to lead certain transactions with appropriate support.
Given the focus of the business, experience in employment and/or data protection would also be useful (although not essential).
Although there is an emphasis on transactional contractual work, additional project work can be expected, which may involve for example assisting with the setting up of new entities in overseas territories and other international work, various regulatory and licensing matters, handling litigation pre-action (and beyond, if required), employment claims and advice, and delivering training on relevant legal developments.
This is a real opportunity for a junior lawyer with commercial and corporate law experience to get exposure to big ticket transactions with the support and training necessary to develop and hone their skills. It is also an exciting chance to get involved with a dynamic and growing recruitment outsourcing business and work in a fast-paced environment.
