Singapore BAKER & MCKENZIE.WONG & LEOW Full time
Roles & Responsibilities

The Role

Baker & McKenzie.Wong & Leow, is looking for a legal professional who has experience in international commercial and global trade matters. This role will involve working closely with the Tax & Trade partners and team on a broad range of trade and customs matters.


The Team

Although the global market has become increasingly open to trade, disparate local laws and varied business and cultural practices can make creating, distributing and selling goods and services in certain markets a major challenge. International trade sanctions limit how companies can do business, as well as customs laws, exchange controls and foreign investment requirements.


Baker McKenzie's International Commercial & Trade lawyers help clients overcome these challenges and successfully compete in the world's developed and emerging markets. We advise major industrial, financial services, technology, consumer products, pharmaceutical and energy companies on sourcing, manufacturing, distributing and selling their products and services around the world. We also help clients select, monitor and manage their relationships with the third-party suppliers, manufacturers, distributors and sales agents in their supply chains.

Well-versed in WTO, regulatory and commercial law, we advise companies on compliance issues such as anti-corruption, anti-bribery, trade sanctions and export and import controls, as well as commercial contracts, product labelling requirements, product liability and recalls, and sales promotion and marketing rules across multiple countries. No matter the issue, we focus on simplifying complex trade requirements so our clients can focus on growing their businesses.


The Candidate

  • Minimum 2 years of international commercial & trade experience in a similar top-tier or leading international law firm;
  • Exceptional technical, drafting, and commercial skills;
  • Strong client service orientation;
  • Strong business development aptitude, interest and experience;
  • Relevant legal qualifications;
  • Strong academic background;
  • Keen and analytical mind, good at legal analysis and with a knack for problem-solving;
  • Commitment to high work standards;
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills; and
  • Ability to work autonomously as well as part of a team (including across Asia Pacific offices and internationally);

Personal qualities are also important to us, so we are keen on people who take initiative, are committed to excellence, and are good problem solvers. We also want people who are comfortable working in teams where friendship is valued.
