Legal Counsel - Commercial Engagements

We are looking for agile learners and true go‑getters—attorneys who take initiative, anticipate issues, and independently drive matters to completion. You will manage your own portfolio, apply strong business judgment, and work across an international team to advise on emerging and evolving business models.

In this role, you will help ensure TI is asking—and solving—the right questions. You will quickly assess whether an issue advances a meaningful business objective, reframe it when needed, and deprioritize it when it doesn’t. You’ll begin each project with a clear definition of success, align with stakeholders upfront, and track whether your actions deliver the intended outcome. You will be expected to escalate thoughtfully and with purpose—to improve outcomes, not simply to be cautious—using escalation to drive alignment, enable decisions, or materially shift strategy while maintaining responsibility for forward progress.

You will help us move from custom, one‑off lawyering to modular contract architecture by creating reusable contract structures and legal frameworks that enable speed, scale, and consistent risk posture. You will help modernize our operations through standardization, automation, and AI.  We are looking for someone who gives data‑driven advice, grounded in prior deal history, defined legal positions, and prevailing market norms. You’ll contribute to building and maintaining the legal data, playbooks, and knowledge assets that support this approach.
