Litigation and Liability Management Counsel at FeverUp in Madrid

Legal, GRC, & Policy Department

The legal team at Fever is a true business partner to all Fever teams, supporting sustainable growth across functions and geographies (including more than 200 cities across the globe!).

About The Role:

Fever is looking for a self-composed, resourceful, and highly adaptable litigation lawyer with 2 to 5 years of post-qualification experience to support litigation strategy and execution. Reporting to senior litigation counsel within the legal department and located in the global HQ in Madrid, as litigation counsel you will familiarize yourself closely with Fever’s mission and vision, structure, strategy, and objectives, in order to help promote and defend Fever’s interests in a wide variety of pre-litigation disputes, litigation, regulatory inquiries, and other adversarial proceedings in the US and, with the support of regional in-house teams, globally. You will work closely with both internal stakeholders (including HR, finance, and business development, among others) and external advisers—directing outside counsel as needed—to assess and manage risk, and drive efficient conflict resolution. In this role, you will gain hands-on experience with complex and interesting legal challenges on the path to responsible and conscientious growth.

This role provides a unique opportunity for a creative lawyer to not only resolve disputes when they occur, but also to take an active role in helping shape and promote strategies to maximize the long term prosperity of the company by identifying and mitigating risks before they materialize, and develop toward greater responsibility within the department.

You will be an ideal fit for this role if you take pride in your ability to harmonize competing interests in the pursuit of just, pragmatic, and sustainable outcomes, and if you combine calm judgment with a penchant for effective execution to deliver results.

If you are excited to build your career in conflict resolution within an ambitious global industry leader as it navigates an ever-evolving legal landscape, all from a vibrant European capital, we would love to hear from you.

What you'll do:

• Provide support to litigation and liability management department, as well as various business teams, including legal research, analysis and strategy recommendations on a wide range of pre-litigation disputes globally.
• Work closely with Fever’s internal human resources and people management teams to ensure compliance with applicable local, national, and international legislation.
• Support Investigation and resolution of claims arising out of Fever’s Equal and Fair Workplace Policy. Promote fair and objective conflict resolution to ensure just outcomes for parties involved.
• Work closely with Fever’s liability and crisis management teams to assist in responding to incidents and continuously improve Fever’s risk assessment and management policies and procedures.
• Assist in responding to government audits and other regulatory inquiries.
• Coordinate and prioritize work with external legal advisors.
• Draft and review a variety of legal documents to support the work of the legal team.

Who You Are:

• Be a qualified lawyer with 2 to 5 years of post-qualification litigation experience, either in a law firm, governmental, in-house, or non-profit setting.
• Experience in a common law jurisdiction or Latin America is a plus.
• Possess sound judgment and discretion, and the ability to communicate effectively with colleagues and stakeholders across the business.
• Able to efficiently distill complex legal problems into succinct, clear and actionable advice and business-forward solutions.
• Have excellent legal research and writing skills.
• Be a highly emotionally intelligent professional and communicator. Poised under pressure.

You can expect to join a group of diverse, hardworking team players, where a cultural fit is someone willing to stay humble and learn, and who can work nimbly.
