Types of work that you will be required to do include:

  • Monitor and research legal and regulatory changes that impact American Express and support the implementation of these changes.
  • Manage license applications and maintenance of licences held by American Express. These include supporting American Express in supervisory matters, compliance-related enquiries and regulatory examinations.

  • Communication. Stong oral and written communication skills, in particular, the ability to explain complex legal matters clearly and concisely to non-specialists and draft compelling submissions to regulators.
  • Professional poise. Maintains grace under pressure and demonstrates the ability to impart discipline and calm to stressful situations. A persuasive advocate who is not afraid to convey unwelcome messages yet lays out a path to practical solutions.
  • A self-starter who takes ownership. Takes the initiative to learn independently rather than passively. Sees what needs to be done and then does it. Takes responsibility for understanding and solving problems. Passionate about regulatory matters, inquisitive, able to self-initiate learning and brainstorming.
  • Energetic and practical application of legal skills and knowledge to business situations and problems.
  • Build effective relationships and credibility throughout the company.
