The posting

Our client is an established Asia-headquartered commodities group with operations across Asia Pacific. As the business continues to expand regionally, they are looking to appoint a Legal Counsel to support the Group’s corporate, investment and commercial activities.

Reporting to a senior member of the Strategy & Investment leadership team, this is a group-level individual contributor role with responsibility for providing practical and commercially focused legal advice to the Singapore office and its regional subsidiaries.

The successful candidate will work closely with senior management and business stakeholders across corporate transactions, fundraising, commercial agreements and other strategic legal matters.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead and support legal workstreams relating to mergers and acquisitions, investments, joint ventures and other corporate transactions, including due diligence, transaction structuring, drafting, negotiation and completion.
  • Support the Group’s equity and debt fundraising activities, including reviewing and negotiating investment, financing and related transaction documentation.
  • Draft, review and negotiate corporate and commercial agreements, including investment agreements, shareholders’ agreements, joint venture agreements, sale and purchase agreements, supply and service agreements and other business contracts.
  • Provide legal advice to the Group and its regional subsidiaries on day-to-day corporate and commercial matters.
  • Support legal matters arising from the Group’s commodities-related activities and commercial operations.
  • Review and negotiate agreements involving Chinese counterparties, including Chinese-language legal and commercial documentation.
  • Work closely with internal stakeholders across Strategy & Investment, Finance, Commercial and other business functions to identify and manage legal and contractual risks.
  • Coordinate and manage external legal counsel across relevant jurisdictions where specialist or local legal advice is required.
  • Support corporate governance, restructuring, financing and other strategic initiatives as the Group continues to grow.
  • Assist with legal work relating to future capital markets and corporate development initiatives where required.

Requirements

  • Degree in Law with relevant professional legal qualification.
  • At least 3 years of post-qualification legal experience gained within a reputable law firm and/or in-house legal function.
  • Strong hands-on experience in M&A and corporate transactions, including drafting and negotiating transaction documents.
  • Demonstrable exposure to fundraising, including equity and/or debt financing transactions.
  • Good commercial contracting experience and the ability to provide practical, business-oriented legal advice.
  • Strong command of both English and Mandarin, including the ability to review and draft Chinese-language contracts and communicate effectively with Chinese-speaking counterparties and stakeholders.
  • Experience supporting cross-border transactions or businesses operating across multiple jurisdictions will be advantageous.
  • Exposure to commodities, capital markets, corporate restructuring, investment transactions or financing documentation will be viewed favourably.
  • Able to operate independently in a lean environment, take ownership of matters and manage multiple priorities effectively.
  • Commercially minded, adaptable and proactive, with strong judgement and the confidence to work directly with senior stakeholders.
  • Candidates who demonstrate stability and a genuine interest in building with the organisation over the longer term will be preferred.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
