- Supporting internal governance and approval processes, including coordinating internal partners as appropriate
- Instructing and collaborating closely with outside counsel to obtain, challenge and finalise legal advice/opinions on projects and agreements
- Carrying out legal research on behalf of GCO colleagues
- Handling company secretarial matters and other LST workstreams, as required

Working with other LST team members, including:

- Improving methods for legal knowledge management and supporting LST training and upskilling programme
- Ensuring LST’s adherence to any company-wide and GCO-specific processes and procedures

**Skills & Qualifications**:

- Junior Argentina-qualified solicitor (or hold an equivalent qualification)
- Experience of drafting and advising on commercial contracts in a practical and commercial manner with strong research and analytical skills
- Fluency in Spanish/Italian/French preferred.
- In-house experience in financial services is preferred.
- Ability to effectively multi-task, prioritise and work as part of a team or autonomously under time pressure to meet deadlines and manage clients’ expectations
- Cross-jurisdictional experience is preferred, but not required (e.g. EMEA, Asia Pac, LatAm)
- Ability to communicate clearly, concisely, reliably, and persuasively with clients, senior business people, legal management and external regulators, both orally and in writing
- Commitment to integrity and American Express value
