10+ years of post-qualification experience working on a wide range of sophisticated commercial transactions, including rights acquisition, intellectual property licensing, digital technology, e-commerce, and/or brand partnerships.
Willingness to always be a hands-on lawyer, dealing with all of the company’s needs, from the largest to the smallest matters.
Broad commercial and strategic background working on international transactions.
Strong business acumen and savvy, good common sense and sound judgment.
Ability to execute under pressure and under time constraints in a fast-paced environment.
