Singapore InCommodities AS Full time

Are you ready to take on a pivotal role in shaping the legal framework of a fast-growing global trading company? Do you thrive in dynamic, ambitious environments and want to be part of our journey to expand across the Asia-Pacific region? If you’re a self-starter who is excited about taking full ownership of the legal landscape in a high-growth business, we want to hear from you As a Legal Counsel, you will be responsible for overseeing all legal matters in APAC, with a primary focus on Japan, New Zealand, and Australia - for now, as we expect to grow in the future.

The Journey Since 2017, we have been on a journey with the clear goal of rethinking energy trading and organizational culture.

A core element in this journey is to rethink how data and technology are central part of our business, and we call this beautiful mix of energy and technology 'Energy Tech'.

We have been very successful with our business in Europe and US, and in 2024, we expanded our journey to APAC and with offices in Singapore and Tokyo.

In this role, you will develop a proactive legislative and contractual risk management approach.

You will ensure compliance with applicable legislation by monitoring and analyzing legal developments, and by drafting and implementing policies.

Moreover, you will act as an advisor to our business by providing legal guidance and advice on a wide range of matters, from standard to bespoke energy trading contracts and beyond.

You will collaborate with various internal teams and manage external legal vendors to ensure compliance and mitigate risks.

As we expand, your contributions will be key to supporting our ambitious growth strategy and establishing a strong legal foundation in the region.

Responsibilities – you will: Develop and implement legal policies and procedures that align with our commercial goals Provide legal advice and support across APAC, primarily focusing on Japan, New Zealand, and Australia Monitor and interpret legal developments across the region, ensuring compliance with applicable regulations Draft, review, and negotiate energy trading-related contracts (primarily, but not exclusively) Provide legal advice and feedback on energy trading-related legal advice requests (primarily, but not exclusively) Conduct horizon scanning to identify potential legal risks and legislative changes Analyze the impact of new legislation on the organization's activities and communicate it to the organization Collaborate with various teams to develop a sound legal risk management practice Qualifications – we imagine that you: Hold a degree in law or a related field, with strong expertise in commercial law Have experience in an in-house legal team or law firm - experience within the energy industry, especially with legal matters involving onboarding counterparts or energy asset origination, is an advantage, but not a requirement.

Have experience managing external legal vendors and providing legal support in a corporate environment Have experience with APAC markets - especially Japan, New Zealand, or Australia is an advantage, but not a requirement Any level of Japanese language proficiency is beneficial but not required.

Personal skills – we expect that you: Have a commercial mindset and the ability to navigate complex industries, interact with diverse stakeholders, and engage with the international legal order Are organized, efficient, and able to prioritize in a dynamic business environment Can demonstrate excellent communication skills and confidently share legal opinions and advice Are a team player who values collaboration while working independently Can maintain a positive, can-do attitude and take initiative Can solve complex legal issues with autonomy and independence Are proactive, self-driven, and comfortable owning legal matters in a fast-paced, growth-oriented business What you can expect from us: The opportunity to build a legal function that is essential to our company’s growth in a rapidly expanding business High level of ownership and responsibility from day one A supportive and ambitious team that values honesty, transparency, and bold thinking A flexible working environment in Singapore or support for relocation if required Benefits: Flexible working hours Health insurance Pension scheme Maternity and paternity leave included paid and unpaid options Paid time off Meals, snacks and drinks at the office About In Commodities SG At In Commodities SG, we embody a startup mindset.

Our culture is deeply entrepreneurial, seeking people who thrive in dynamic environments with constant change and a strong focus on continuous improvements.

We operate with a flat organizational structure, fostering autonomy, enabling fast and distributed decision-making processes and encouraging open communication.

This approach ensures that innovative ideas can swiftly turn into impactful actions, driving our growth and success.

We value responsibility, initiative and flexibility to exceed defined job descriptions.

This ensures that everyone contributes meaningfully and takes ownership which is crucial for driving our growth and adaptability in these early phases of building our US presence.

A people-first culture We value a strong social community with frequent events outside the office.

The work culture is relaxed; you don’t have to abide by a dress code or a strict hierarchy, so you won’t be frustrated with too many rules, policies, or bureaucratic processes.

Our core values - honesty, transparency, and rethinking - are fundamental to how we engage with each other.

Without honesty and transparency, we can't build trust, and trust among team members is the foundation of effective relationships and collaboration, ultimately for achieving better outcomes together.

And as for rethinking, it’s deeply rooted in our DNA, pushing us to challenge status quo and continuously develop and innovate.

An inclusive workplace Our commitment to fostering an inclusive and innovative culture makes In Commodities an exciting place to grow your career.

We are dedicated to creating a diverse workplace where everyone feels valued and respected.

Practical details Location: 21 Collyer Quay, #11-109, Singapore 049320 Application deadline: As soon as possible.

If you have any questions, please contact: Teo Lund Grönvall #J-18808-Ljbffr
