About the Role

Our client, is a high-growth international technology and digital education company operating across the UAE, Europe, United States, Asia, and Latin America.

As the company expands its operations globally, they are seeking a skilled Legal & Compliance Counsel to support all legal, commercial, regulatory, and governance activities. This is a strategic, hands-on legal role in a fast-paced, cross-border environment.

The role covers group-level oversight of legal and compliance matters across UAE Free Zone and Mainland structures, EU/UK, US, APAC (Singapore, Hong Kong), and LATAM jurisdictions, particularly in the context of digital platforms, data protection, and commercial operations.

Key Responsibilities

  • Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of contracts including SaaS, vendor, marketing, partnership, licensing, and platform documentation.
  • Maintain internal contract templates, trackers, and approval workflows.

Corporate & Regulatory Compliance

  • Oversee compliance for UAE Free Zone and Mainland entities; align activities with license scopes.
  • Monitor legal risk exposure across international markets (EU, US, Asia, LATAM).
  • Ensure marketing, platform content, and customer terms comply with applicable laws.

Data Protection & Privacy

  • Implement and monitor compliance with UAE PDPL, EU GDPR, US privacy regulations, and other frameworks.
  • Draft and maintain DPAs, privacy notices, DPIAs, and data-mapping documentation.
  • Partner with internal security/tech teams to ensure privacy-by-design practices.

Risk Management & Internal Controls

  • Identify legal risks and support mitigation plans.
  • Develop policies on acceptable use, marketing, sanctions screening, and vendor compliance.
  • Conduct internal readiness reviews for regulatory audits and PSP/partner onboarding.

Corporate Governance & Entity Management

  • Support cross-border entity management, registrations, filings, and board resolutions.
  • Assist with expansion planning and new-market legal assessments.

Dispute Management & External Counsel Liaison

  • Coordinate pre-litigation matters, legal notices, and customer escalations.
  • Manage relationships with external legal advisors across key jurisdictions.

Intellectual Property & Brand Protection

  • Support IP registration, licensing, and enforcement strategies.
  • Manage digital terms, IP usage policies, and content rights.

Candidate Requirements

  • Bachelor of Laws (LLB), Juris Doctor (JD), or equivalent international legal qualification.
  • 3 to 6 years of post-qualification experience in corporate, commercial, regulatory, or technology law.
  • Strong working knowledge of UAE commercial law, PDPL, and Free Zone regulations.
  • Familiarity with international compliance frameworks: GDPR, US state privacy laws, APAC norms (HK/SG).
  • Experience in technology, SaaS, fintech, or online platforms is highly desirable.
  • Excellent legal drafting, issue spotting, and stakeholder advisory skills.
  • High professional integrity and ability to work autonomously in a multi-jurisdictional setting.

Success in this Role Means

  • No major legal escalations, disputes, or compliance breaches.
  • Regulatory obligations are met seamlessly across jurisdictions.
  • Contracts, policies, and records are fully defensible and updated.
  • The legal foundation enables international expansion and innovation.

  • 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.
