  • You will be prepared to function as part of the wider global legal team and undertake global projects, initiatives, deals, corporate or other commercial transactions as may arise or be assigned.
  • You will be a close partner to the business, responsible for a broad spectrum of commercial legal and compliance matters within Equinix's business and may be assigned ownership of the commercial activities in a country, a particular business unit, or specific industry areas.
  • You will analyze customer requests for information, advise the business on how best to respond, and be able to independently draft accurate and comprehensive responses under tight deadlines.

  • You must have experience working on a collaborative team with key business stakeholders in Sales, Finance, Product, and Operations to identify key business concerns with contract provisions, and project manage development of documents during the contract negotiation and drafting process.
  • You must be competent, engaged, accurate, resourceful, independent, organized, able to prioritize, an effective time manager, and able to work in a team.
  • You must be prepared to use current legal technology including contracts management systems and document and email management systems.
