**About the job**:
Google's legal department is at the center of an information law revolution, and you're at its core. As a Legal Assistant, you are a driving force behind the success of your Legal team, ready to roll up your sleeves to create and improve processes, maintain records, conduct legal research and coordinate communications across the team. As you closely support your team, you may find yourself working with multiple groups within the Legal Department, internal clients across Google, and external parties. You're an independent thinker who isn't afraid to ask questions, and you're organized in a way that never overlooks the details.
In this role, you will execute tasks and provide support to the Legal Department on various legal and administrative matters within the scope of a project. You act as a point person for internal or external clients, prepare preliminary drafts of legal documents, create process documentation, and lead training sessions. You own well-defined projects and handle legal and business matters of low to moderate risk of complexity with some guidance including managing information and documentation, conducting legal reviews, advising clients on risks and solutions, and improving processes. You interact with multiple groups within the Legal Department, with internal stakeholders across Google, and with external parties and articulate legal and operational needs with parties who may have competing priorities.
20th century laws don't always solve 21st century problems, and Google Legal crafts innovative approaches for working with some of the toughest legal challenges of the information age. Whether you're a patent attorney, an intellectual property expert or an engineer headed to law school, Google Legal lets you address unanswered legal quandaries and create new precedents. Our innovative services raise challenging questions that demand creative and practical answers. 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.
**Responsibilities**:
- Handle corporate expansions, liquidations, integrations and coordination of corporate compliance, governance and maintenance for Alphabet subsidiaries in the APAC region.
- Plan and coordinate board/shareholder meetings in accordance with local statutory and regulatory requirements, including attending meetings, preparing board/shareholder documents, taking minutes, maintaining corporate records and internal databases. Monitor and handle required corporate and regulatory filings.
- You will help prepare preliminary drafts of legal documents and process documentation, and lead training sessions internally.
