Legal Analyst – Tax & General Legal - [São Paulo]

ROLE SUMMARY

The Legal Analyst is part of Integration Consulting's legal team in Brazil, a small in-house team that supports the firm's operations in Brazil and abroad (Argentina, Mexico, Chile, the United Kingdom, Germany and the United States). With a background in tax law, the professional will be the team's first point of contact for tax matters, while also working across all the other topics a small corporate legal department handles — contracts, corporate matters, compliance and day-to-day legal requests from the business.

We are looking for an early-career lawyer who is curious, versatile and comfortable in a generalist role: someone who enjoys learning new subjects, takes ownership of their work, interacts directly with Integration's leadership and internal areas, and wants to grow in an in-house legal environment.
