LEGAL COUNSEL, DISPUTES RESOLUTION

[What you will be working on]

The Legal, Disputes Resolution Division (LDR) (“Division”) provides legal services to various LTA divisions on all investigations, dispute resolution and related matters. These include commercial disputes in areas such as contracts, IT infrastructure, construction, insolvency, and tort law.

- advise on steps to minimise or mitigate LTA’s potential for liability.
- attend to mediations, settlement discussions and court proceedings as required.
- instruct and coordinate with external lawyers on dispute resolution matters.
- develop house views and conduct legal and risk management training to LTA divisions on how to mitigate legal, regulatory, and reputational risks.
- provide regular case reports for management and LTA Board.

[What we are looking for]
- Tertiary qualification in Law (LLB)
- Qualified Person under the Legal Profession Act or called to the Singapore Bar
- Pro-active, solution and service-oriented mind set
- Positive attitude, self-motivated, willing to learn, collaborative and a team player
- Strong analytical and critical thinking skills
- Good communication, drafting and interpersonal skills
- Prior experience in general disputes practice or construction disputes practice is a plus.
