Legal Counsel (with French or German)
Legal Counsel (with French or German)Do you want to be part of a team that helps professionals do their jobs better and which also strives to create a more transparent, just and inclusive future? At Thomson Reuters, we’ve been doing just that for almost 160 years.
We're looking for a hands-on commercial lawyer with a problem-solving approach to providing commercial legal services in a technology-enabled, data-driven corporate legal department. The successful candidate should have advanced French or German language and legal skills and who can provide sound legal and business advice to sales professionals in Europe, product management, and other internal customers, on a broad range of legal and compliance matters, particularly in relation to software (including SaaS) and information licensing agreements.
This opportunity is with Thomson Reuters based in Zug. The role sits within the Customers & Commercial team of the Thomson Reuters General Counsel Office, a highly collaborative international team focused on enabling business growth and mitigating risk for the customer-centric commercial group.
About the Role
In this opportunity as Legal Counsel, you will:
- Review, draft, and negotiate a wide range of European customer-facing and partner agreements, primarily complex software (including SaaS) and information licensing agreements, re-distribution, reseller, referral, hosting, content acquisition, consulting and professional services agreements, non-disclosure agreements and other commercial agreements relating to sales of Thomson Reuters products and services.
- Provide strategic legal advice to business leaders and partner with multiple stakeholders to drive strategy and growth.
- Experience advising on the licensing of, as well as using, AI tools and other legal technology.
About You
You’re a fit for the role of Legal Counsel if your background includes:
- 3-5 years' post-qualification experience in private practice and/or as in-house legal counsel advising a sales organization on customers (rather than procurement).
- A desire to build a legal career within a large corporate setting.
- Excellent technical legal knowledge in contract and commercial law, particularly with SaaS products and solutions, including Gen AI products and solutions.
- Experience and knowledge of software/technology contracting under either (a) German; or (b) French law and the ability to negotiate in the applicable language.
- Excellent negotiation and drafting skills, including excellent written/verbal English language communication skills.
- Authorisation to practise as a lawyer in Switzerland.
- An ability to think strategically and creatively, to identify and resolve legal issues.
- A desire and ability to quickly learn about Thomson Reuters’ products and services, and its internal processes and organizational structure.
What’s in it For You?
- Industry-Leading Benefits: We offer comprehensive benefit plans to include flexible vacation, two company-wide Mental Health Days off, access to the Headspace app, retirement savings, tuition reimbursement, employee incentive programs, and resources for mental, physical, and financial wellbeing.
- Flexibility & Work-Life Balance: Flex My Way is a set of supportive workplace policies designed to help manage personal and professional responsibilities, whether caring for family, giving back to the community, or finding time to refresh and reset.

- Career Development and Growth: By fostering a culture of continuous learning and skill development, we prepare our talent to tackle tomorrow’s challenges and deliver real-world solutions.

- Hybrid Work Model: We’ve adopted a flexible hybrid working environment (2-3 days a week in the office depending on the role) for our office-based roles while delivering a seamless experience that is digitally and physically connected.
- Social Impact: Make an impact in your community with our Social Impact Institute. We offer employees two paid volunteer days off annually and opportunities to get involved with pro-bono consulting projects and Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives.
