  • Monitor relevant regulatory developments and support implementation of required changes with internal and external stakeholders
  • Coordinate external legal counsel in disputes and litigation, including preparing materials and supporting case management, escalating key decisions to business leadership
  • Advise on employment law matters, including employment documentation, disciplinary procedures, and terminations

What will you bring

  • Strong practical understanding of IT and digital contracting, data protection, and procurement processes
  • Business-oriented, solution-driven mindset with the ability to manage multiple priorities independently
  • Proven experience drafting and negotiating complex commercial agreements in cross-border environments
  • Prior experience in supporting technology-related legal matters (e.g. SaaS agreements and basic IP topics) in collaboration with external counsel is considered a plus
  • Strong communication skills and confidence in advising non-legal stakeholders
  • Fluency in both Lithuanian and English languages, written and spoken

What we offer

  • A working culture that is high performing, ambitious, collaborative and fun
  • Health insurance and a yearly training budget (local and international conferences, language courses), employee-led workshops
  • Flexible working hours
