About the company/role

Opportunity for a technically sound Senior Corporate / Commercial Lawyer to come on board to support the smooth operations of the APAC division of a global FinTech. Benefit from direct access to senior executives, and see your input make a tangible difference. You will work within a collaborative team that values open communication and teamwork.

In this business-critical role you will take on high-impact responsibilities across the business (flat-structure) whilst navigating legal risks. Enjoy a broad, dynamic commercial workload in a fast-paced environment, with new challenges every day, in a high performing team. There is also the opportunity for you to supervise some down to earth lawyers on the team.

Your role will be twofold: Project work and BAU. This will include, but not be limited to commercial contract review and complex negotiations, attending to regulatory matters (Corps Act, ASIC), technology contracts, product launches, M&A, privacy, licensing, IP, marketing, technology, overseeing and instructing external counsel, and delivering strategic commercial legal advice across the APAC region. A detailed job description is available on request.

Skills & experience

This role would suit a senior lawyer with an entrepreneurial mindset, who will bring circa 8+ PQE (this is a guide only) from either an in-house legal team and/or well-regarded firm. Will complement a lawyer with a financial services/regulatory or a technology skillset, with an interest. Any exposure to online trading and/or derivatives will be highly regarded, but not a prerequisite. Your sharp technical skill set, combined with strong commercial acumen and an ability to effectively engage with stakeholders, will see you as successful in this role.

  • Highly regarded international FinTech business
  • Dive into a varied broad commercial workload, no two days will be the same
  • You will work with an incredibly collegiate in-house team in a business with a renowned welcoming and inclusive culture
  • The business operates on a flat structure so, you'll have direct access to senior executives. Your input will be highly valued by the business.
  • A super generous holiday leave structure so you can have real 'down time'
