Wise is a global technology company, building the best way to move and manage the world’s money. Min fees. Max ease. Full speed.

Whether people and businesses are sending money to another country, spending abroad, or making and receiving international payments, Wise is on a mission to make their life easier and save them money.

As part of our team, you will be helping us create an entirely new network for the world's money. For everyone, everywhere.

Your mission:

Wise continues to pioneer new ways for people to send, spend and manage their money across borders and currencies.

Your mission is to enable, protect and empower the business and people of Wise to help achieve growth with minimal distraction.

About the role:

• Work closely with our People and Legal teams globally to provide strategic advice on employment and employment law-related issues, including recruitment, payroll and tax, compensation and benefits, and people operations.

• Draft and advise on employment-related agreements and policies globally, such as employment agreements and offer letters, severance agreements, confidentiality agreements and codes of conduct.

• Advise, partner and liaise with various internal stakeholders to develop processes for common employee-related issues, and drive other employment-related projects and initiatives.

• Work closely with the Employee Relations team on any contentious employment matters, and advise on risk levels, mitigation and response.

• Report to Senior Counsel (hard line) and Global Employee Relations Lead (dotted line).

This role will give you the opportunity to:

• Choose your path to impact - we believe people are most empowered when they can act autonomously. So rather than being told what to do, you’ll take ownership from day one. Of course, you will have feedback from smart, curious people across Wise but you’ll experience unique levels of ownership and empowerment within your role.

• Be part of our mission to make money without borders the new normal.

About you:

• UK-qualified employment lawyer with 2 to 4 years PQE.

• Ability to navigate difficult issues and multiple stakeholders, advising the business on key benefits and risks, and developing solutions.

• Ability to juggle multiple matters at once across different jurisdictions.

• Ability to communicate legal advice in a succinct and pragmatic way to different areas of the business.

• Have a get-it-done, collaborative approach to problem solving.
