  • Collaborate with stakeholders to support the development of new products and services, offering legal insight into relevant processes, technologies, and compliance considerations.

  • Advise on legal and regulatory issues including licensing, intellectual property, data privacy/protection, partnerships, operations, and market expansion.

  • Manage procurement and engagement of external counsel when necessary.

  • Address and resolve contract-related issues that may arise in the course of business.

  • Provide advice on contract and tender processes to ensure alignment with internal standards and policies.

  • Maintain a central repository of contracts, ensuring proper tracking, renewals, and review mechanisms.

  • Stay informed on legal and regulatory developments, including changes to employment law and other relevant legislation.

Key Performance Indicators

  • Deliver timely, accurate legal advice across business functions.

  • Proactively identify and mitigate legal risks to the business.

  • Efficiently manage contract lifecycle, including negotiation, drafting, and risk minimization.
