About You
We're on the hunt for a Junior Legal Advisor who's ready to trade the articles grind for real in-house adventure. You're 1-2 years post-admission, you've got a soft spot for contract law, and you get a weird little thrill from spotting the one clause everyone else skimmed past. Fine print isn't a chore for you, it's basically a treasure hunt.
You'll be joining us to help keep the wheels of a fast, sometimes chaotic e-commerce machine legally sound, working shoulder to shoulder with our Legal Advisor and picking up serious hands-on experience along the way, contracts, compliance, company secretarial work, the lot. You ask good questions, you're not precious about being corrected, and you can turn "legalese" into something a normal human can actually understand. If that sounds like your kind of Tuesday, let's talk.

Assisting with the drafting, review and negotiation of commercial contracts on behalf of the ODO group (e.g. supplier agreements, trading terms and day-to-day operational agreements)
Supporting the Legal Advisor in identifying and addressing the legal, regulatory and compliance matters of the ODO group
