The Role
Veeva is looking for an Employment Counsel to join our expanding legal team in EMEA.

* Assist Senior Counsel in providing training to HR and business stakeholders in employee-related matters.
* Handle day-to-day HR employee-related queries (absence, hiring, terminations, investigations, disciplinaries, and grievances).
* Assist Senior Counsel in managing, updating, and administering knowledge to stakeholders (templates, know-how, training).
Requirements
* Qualified employment lawyer in at least one of the following jurisdictions: UK, France, Spain, or Germany.
* 1+ years experience (preferably in-house).
* Ability to travel in EMEA occasionally (court attendance, offsite meetings, etc.).
* Strong legal and analytical skills.
* Ability to be solution-oriented and pragmatic.
* Excellent verbal and written communication skills in English.
Nice to Have
