Head of Legal at Google Nigeria

Posted on Tue 04th May, 2021 - hotnigerianjobs.com --- (0 comments)


Google is not a conventional company, and we don't intend to become one. True, we share attributes with the world's most successful organizations - a focus on innovation and smart business practices comes to mind - but even as we continue to grow, we're committed to retaining a small-company feel. At Google, we know that every employee has something important to say, and that every employee is integral to our success. We provide individually-tailored compensation packages that can be comprised of competitive salary, bonus, and equity components, along with the opportunity to earn further financial bonuses and rewards.

We are recruiting to fill the position below:

About the Job

  • As Regional Senior Counsel at Google, you work on the most exciting legal issues as disruptive technological innovations require creative and proactive legal guidance.
  • You're part of a whip-smart group of in-house lawyers and the projects and cases you take on challenge you to think big and differently. You are collaborative -- ready to partner in initiatives that influence all aspects of the business and work with Googlers from all over the company.
  • As an integrated part of the team, you proactively assess legal risks and advise on products that will not only move information into the 21st century, but move information law forward as well.

We provide those answers by working at the crossroads of the law and new technology, helping Google build innovative and important products for users around the world.
