The posting

Eram Talent is seeking an elite Legal General Counsel for an immediate 3-month short-term engagement. This is not a standard corporate legal advisory assignment; it is an invitation to step in as the Lead Architect of the legal framework for one of Saudi Arabia's most ambitious supply chain engines. The interim Legal General Counsel will lead and drive the Legal function, protecting commercial and legal interests, ensuring operational continuity, and steering regulatory and strategic governance in alignment with Kingdom laws and regulations.

If selected, the work location would be onsite at Saudi Arabia.

Scope of Work

As the interim Legal General Counsel during this critical 3-month mandate, your key responsibilities will include:

Strategic Leadership & Governance

  • Lead, direct, and mentor the legal team, fostering a high-performance, results-driven culture during this transition phase.
  • Partner with executive leadership and the Board of Directors to provide high-level strategic legal direction aligned with corporate goals.
  • Translate corporate strategy into actionable legal department objectives and operational deliverables.
  • Ensure robust corporate governance, including the drafting and maintenance of entity documents, resolutions, consents, and corporate filings.

Legal Advisory & Risk Management

  • Provide top-tier legal support to the CEO, Board, and senior executive team on legal rights, statutory compliance, and commercial risk exposure.
  • Conduct comprehensive legal and commercial risk analyses to enable business growth while safeguarding income and assets.
  • Identify potential compliance vulnerabilities and implement proactive preventive measures to protect commercial interests.

Operations, Contracts & Regulatory Affairs

  • Draft, review, and negotiate complex commercial agreements, including key customer/supplier contracts, logistics and procurement agreements, IT contracts, and construction documentation.
  • Standardize contract templates and roll out streamlined legal processes to enhance departmental efficiency.
  • Monitor KSA regulatory developments and changes in legislation—specifically impacting the procurement and logistics sectors—and proactively advise management on required adaptations.
  • Represent the organization before Saudi government bodies, regulatory authorities, and trade associations as needed to align corporate strategy with national legislative frameworks.
  • Produce structured administrative and legal reporting for executive management as required.

Requirements

Note: Candidates must be immediately available or have minimal notice periods to fulfill this 3-month contract assignment.

  • Education: Juris Doctor (JD), Master of Laws (LL.M.), or equivalent degree from an internationally recognized law school.
  • Licensure: Must be registered and licensed to practice law by the Saudi Arabia Ministry of Justice (KSA Bar / Judicial License).
  • Experience: 16+ years of post-qualification experience providing high-level legal counsel within a corporate, top-tier law firm, government, or private consultancy environment in Saudi Arabia.
  • Domain Expertise: Deep knowledge of KSA corporate law, commercial litigation, regulatory compliance, and contract negotiation, with strong preference given to expertise in the supply chain, logistics, or procurement industries.
  • Certifications: LL.M. from a top-tier UK or US law school and/or KSA Bar Certification is highly preferred.
