An opportunity has arisen for an Assistant General Counsel specializing in Data Privacy and Commercial matters within a global, growth-focused client. The role involves serving as the primary legal advisor on U.S. data privacy concerns while also addressing a variety of commercial legal requirements. This position is newly established and necessitates close collaboration with both U.S. and global stakeholders. The individual in this role will report directly to an Associate General Counsel responsible for employment, commercial, and data privacy issues. An ideal candidate will possess extensive knowledge of U.S. federal and state privacy laws and demonstrate a practical, business-oriented perspective.
