  • Negotiate and draft a wide variety of complex commercial agreements, including license agreements, RFP/tender responses, professional services agreements, and respond to a diverse range of legal requests from HERE's business units spanning corporate, commercial, IP licensing and privacy.
  • Working independently with HERE's internal business clients, supporting end-to-end negotiations and execution of contracts.
  • Collaborating with both business and legal colleagues in the APAC and Global Legal Teams on a variety of matters, including conducting training for the business on legal and compliance matters as required and developing training materials, playbooks, and agreement templates as required.
  • Providing support for other legal projects as needed.
About the Requirements
  • You have a LLB, JD, or equivalent qualification and strong academic credentials from a top tier law school in Australia, the US, the UK or other highly recognized jurisdictions.
  • You have a minimum of 8 years' legal experience, with experience at a top-tier international law firm or in-house experience with a global company.
  • Strong and validated drafting and negotiation skills.
  • Demonstrated experience advising clients on a wide range of subject matters, including corporate, commercial, IP licensing, privacy and regulatory matters.
  • Excellent organizational, communication, interpersonal and management skills, with proven ability to manage many simultaneous contract negotiations within required deadlines.
  • Ability to work well independently as well as in a cross-functional team and build rapport and trust with internal clients and external customers.
  • A positive and solutions-oriented attitude with the ability to provide practical advice in a changing work environment.
  • A keen interest in technology, mapping, and location services (or interest in learning about it).
  • Some flexibility in work hours, to accommodate time zones around the world.
  • Willing to travel as and when required.
