Sydney - Full Time - Hybrid - Director

We are looking for an experienced privacy and data lawyer and leader to join the Office of General Counsel (OGC) team. As a member of the team, you will lead the privacy and data practice areas within the Firm Corporate & Technology team and contribute to all aspects of privacy and data matters at the firm in a supportive and dynamic team environment. You will work with senior leadership directly on privacy and data matters and advise on privacy and data laws.

With new and dynamic problems to solve, you'll have plenty of opportunities to develop and grow your legal skills. We embrace flexible working. Strong communication skills, prioritising integrity, delivering quality and the ability to be a team player are essential. As a member of OGC, you'll make a real impact in a workplace that's human-led and tech-enabled.

As a senior leader in OGC, your impact will be seen by:

• A high performing and engaged team
• Supporting strong and trusted relationships with our internal clients and governance bodies.
• Providing trusted and sensible advice on privacy and data related matters
• Assisting with the review, legal analysis and preparation of advice to our business clients on a variety of matters while working closely with the organisation's technology, People & Culture, and risk and compliance teams
• Providing focused and pragmatic solutions to address legal risk and business problems

About You:

• You have people leadership experience and thrive on creating a positive team environment
• Proven experience and excellence in the field in advising on complex data and privacy matters
• You will have deep experience in the fields of data, privacy and technology law and will have handled complex matters in your prior roles
• You will have excellent listening skills and will respond appropriately to feedback from stakeholders
• You have experience and confidence in dealing with and assisting senior management (both in written and verbal communications), including an ability to draft clear and precise legal documents and communications
• You have excellent interpersonal and commercial skills, as well as an ability to build relationships and influence with impact
• You can identify and consider critical issues and assess and articulate legal risks (including likelihood and impact) so the business can make informed, risk-based commercial decisions

It's time to move forward. And upward.

You want to be involved in a team that makes an impact and creates meaningful change in an environment with the flexibility and reward you need to make your life work away from the office.

We'll give you a career-boosting role that:

• Provides meaningful work and leadership opportunities
• Allows you to follow your passion for giving through social impact and volunteering programs
• Helps you prioritise your life outside of work, with lifestyle and wellness stipends up to $500 a year
• Has competitive and transparent salary packages with the opportunity for yearly bonuses and promotions
• Supports you to grow your leadership skills with our internal Academy, study support, and partnerships with Udemy and Coursera
• Prioritises new families with 26 weeks of parental leave

We're an inclusive bunch, and we try to make life easier - for our clients, our teams and our communities. If you need reasonable adjustments when applying, just let us know.
