And we reinvented khaki pants. We pioneered labor and environmental guidelines for our manufacturing partners. And we work to build sustainability into everything we do.

• Help develop new policies and management guidelines.
• Document and contract review and feedback to business clients.
• Manage various assignments with internal stakeholders and outside counsel using the corporate outsourcing tool and set up.
• Be a contact person with Global Legal Department on evidence gathering for TM defensive/offensive litigation cases in Europe and simple ethics and compliance questions
• Under guidance of attorney, review, edit, redline and advise on simple vendor and customer contracts working with GSS and retail and wholesale organizations throughout the region.
• Be the CLM/Apptus point person for LSE, supporting European legal team lead for the roll-out of the tool and, once operational, operating triage for legal review.
• Help building trainings in legal areas with focus on competition and data privacy compliance and manage the legal e-learning tool and program for LSE.
• Be a back-up for administrative assistant in Serengeti management.
Requirements:
• Bachelor’s Degree, or a combination of college education and related work experience
• Minimum 3 years of experience with corporate subsidiary practices
• Paralegal certificate is a plus
• Proactive approach
• Ability to handle variety of tasks
• Effective interpersonal and organizational skills
• Sensitivity to confidential materials, diplomacy
• Interest in LS&Co values and ways of working
What we offer:
• An opportunity to build a career with a world-renowned, historic fashion brand that lives by its values
• A diverse, international environment of smart, inspiring people
• A fun, creative, modern casual dress culture
