工作概要:

About the Role & Team

Based in our London office in Hammersmith, the EMEA Disney+ Legal team collaborates with Disney Legal offices across EMEA, working seamlessly to provide regional legal guidance. The EMEA Disney+ Legal team leads on product matters, regulatory and consumer law, and broadcasting compliance. It also provides UK-specific advice, which informs our broader regional strategy and supports our US-based teams.

As Disney+ grows in both scale and complexity, we need additional support within our EMEA Disney+ Legal team. We are therefore seeking a new Legal Counsel to help the EMEA Disney+ Legal team provide best-in-class support. The Counsel will play a crucial part in the development of Disney+, including guiding change in both the UK and our markets in EMEA. This role requires a lawyer to advise on legal risk as well as suggest solutions to meet business needs. Creative solutions are often required, so the willingness to think about different ways of managing a problem is always welcome. The new Counsel has the opportunity to grow within the role and to take on additional responsibilities when ready to do so.

This role will report to the Principal Counsel for the EMEA Disney+ Legal team.
