   • Develop strategies to mitigate legal risks across all operational areas.

4. Compliance Oversight:

   • Implement and monitor compliance programs for all entities, ensuring adherence to local and international laws.

   • Prepare and submit compliance reports to relevant authorities.

   • Keep up with regulatory changes and adapt company policies accordingly.

5. Crisis Management:

   • Be prepared to act swiftly during incidents, blockage claims, dispute summons, and other third-party dispute correspondence that might be received.

   • Develop protocols for managing crises with a focus on reducing legal and compliance stress.

6. Inter-Entity Agreements and Documentation:

   • Draft agreements between our entities (e.g., shared services agreements, IP licensing, etc.).

   • Maintain comprehensive records of all legal documentation, contracts, and agreements.

   • Manage and update the company's WIKI regarding legal matters.

7. Collaboration:

   • Work closely with internal departments (finance, HR, operations) to ensure cohesive legal and compliance support.

   • Engage and manage external counsel for specialized legal matters.

Qualifications

• Law degree and admission to practice law in at least one jurisdiction.

• Strong understanding of corporate law, contracts, and compliance frameworks.
