  • Ensuring that the legal function, which today operates out of the company’s headquarters in Belgium, supports the business globally.
  • Liaising with external lawyers and other service providers, looking for providers that can deliver excellent quality but always taking into account the applicable budget constraints.
  • Keeping up-to-date with relevant legal evolutions and developments, applying such up-to-date knowledge on a day-to-day basis and sharing any relevant knowledge within the legal team or providing training more broadly throughout the organization.
How to succeed / Your profile:
  • Belgian Master’s degree in Law.
  • 5 years of experience in contract and commercial law, excellent drafting skills and ability to summarize and communicate complex legal issues in a concise manner.
  • Real team player.
  • Experience with data/IT and data privacy is a plus.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
What’s in it for you:

You will become part of a people-oriented company where your well-being really matters. Flexible working hours, work from home possibilities, 20 days holiday and 12 WTR days within a 40-hour week. At our headquarters, you will also discover our TVH Park, a green area where you can move around and have the possibility to relax, meet or have lunch. Furthermore, we also offer:

  • An attractive salary package with extra-legal benefits such as group and hospitalization insurance, luncheon vouchers and a corporate restaurant.
  • An exciting position in an international company with a family atmosphere where people are at the center.
  • You are part of a dynamic entrepreneurial team that is fast-growing and at the center of the transformation.
