We are looking for – Legal Counsel (maternity cover - 2 years fixed term)

Scroll if your are interested

We need a lawyer. We’re not in trouble, and we do not plan to be, but a creative and digital agency’s life is full of various situations. Contracts, new employees, pitches, tenders, copyright issues, games, that frisky AI and almost anything else from the realms advertising and communication. All of us work tirelessly to satisfy our clients, but in order to do so it is necessary to have someone with an overall knowledge of the law and the speed and efficiency to deliver sound legal solutions to all of our law-related questions. If you’re up for a challenge like this, here’s some good news: we’re looking for a Legal Counsel to substitute our teammate while she is away for a while.

Responsibilities:

  • providing legal assistance and your best advice in various legal topics (including, but not limited to intellectual property, digital and offline advertising related legal matters, data protection, AI use and partying too loud),
  • coming up with not just analyses but possible solutions to legal matters in corporate and contractual topics while protecting our interests,
  • legal negotiating, drafting and reviewing client contracts and other agreements,
  • identifying the legal requirements according to the specific legislation related to the company’s activities (digital advertising, website management, online and offline marketing, AI and so much more) and following up on the compliance with these requirements,
  • assistance in representing the company before authorities and partners,
  • advertising law, copyright law, contractual law, digital marketing, data protection, tax law, AI … we don’t require you to be an expert of all said areas but we do need someone who knows where to look for answers, and can get them quickly and efficiently.

So what is the job?

You will provide legal assistance to our various business units and hold the reins in various legal matters (contractual law, copyright and advertising law, such as communication and campaign development, social communication, production, etc.). Your work will be guided by our in-house legal counsel and you will work together with the leaders of the business units, and occasionally with external experts. 

You will also be asked to aid all our colleagues in work-related legal questions, keeping in mind that they are not from a legal field (the look on their face when you discuss the law with them is priceless, trust us).

Requirements and what we really would like you to bring:

  • 3+ years experience after graduating from university;
  • native Hungarian and excellent English skills, both verbal and written (including experience in legal drafting);
  • excellent communication and negotiation skills;
  • ideally you are highly organized, agile, task-focused, and adept at juggling multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment;
  • experience in advertising law, digital marketing, intellectual property & copyright law and in AI is an absolute advantage;
  • proactive, creative and solution focused mentality, capability to identify and solve various problems;
  • a people-friendly approach and a high level of empathy and tolerance, capability of explaining legal matters in everyday language.
