- Confidence in navigating the business, ability to work independently and collaboratively.
- Ability to systematically analyze complex problems, draw relevant conclusions and implement appropriate solutions.
- Language requirements:
- Strong verbal and written skills in English and the ability to convey complex information in a way that is easy to understand for others.

- Strong negotiating and persuasive skills, both in one-on-one and group situations.

Offer
- The work atmosphere is simultaneously professional and informal: a pleasant work environment in new, airy and light-filled offices in the Medialaan (with a bus stop and ample parking nearby). In the midst of the hustle and bustle of other companies with a dynamic atmosphere. Wonderfully designed new offices and a company restaurant.
In short, a creative and stimulating environment! - Generous trust, freedom and mutual flexibility: flexible working hours, leaving home after the traffic jams, home office.
You organize your schedule in line with both the business and your personal situation. After all, results are what matters!
This means you combine hard work with a proper work-life balance! - Travel? Your choice! You can opt for travel during your contract negotiations. You prefer to stay at the office? You’d rather Skype than travel? That’s fine too!

A broad and interesting horizon! - Enthusiastic EMEA legal department (VP, legal counsel, paralegal, project engineer) who can’t wait to share their passion with you.
- This company genuinely invests in its legal department:

- You report directly to the Vice President, Associate General Counsel. She will show you the ropes so you can work autonomously within the organization in no time.

- Realistic growth opportunities:
Varied legal content and an ongoing learning process. The admin assistant of this team advanced to a paralegal position. If opportunities present themselves you will also have the chance to take the plunge: this can be enriching in terms of content and can also mean interdepartmental mobility. - Meritocracy is a reality here!
- Neovia Logistics is a company people are proud to work for!
