Candidate Profile

This is a rare opportunity for the right candidate. The ideal candidate would probably have 5-10-year post-qualification experience, preferably as a solicitor in England and Wales. Previous experience of shipping law is required; previous experience in the energy and/or trading area would be a considerable advantage.

You must be proficient in legal drafting under English law (and fluently speak, read and write in English). Legal knowledge of another European jurisdiction (or US law) is an advantage, as is a command of French and/or another major European language.

You should thrive working both as a team player and autonomously, and demonstrate effective communication skills with all levels of the organisation. You also should have solid negotiation skills, a solution-oriented attitude, a collaborative mind-set, and be proactive.

At TotalEnergies, we believe that our employees' fulfilment has its roots in the wealth of the experiences they are offered. We are an equal opportunity employer committed to respecting diversity and inclusion in the workplace.

Applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard for race, color, gender, religion, national origin, disability, military status, age, marital status, sexual orientation, gender.

Activities

  • Assist the demurrage department with claims against shipowners and commercial counterparties.
More generally:

  • Negotiation - assist internal clients in commercial and contractual negotiations with third parties;
  • Risk - advise on legal risks and minimise the impact of legal risks for the business;
  • Disputes - assist in the management of legal disputes for the Company and advise on the risks and outcomes (litigation, arbitration, mediation);
  • Laws and regulations - monitor and advise on applicable shipping laws and international conventions;
  • Assist in the instruction of external counsel and actively monitor and minimise external legal costs.
Context & Environment

You will evolve in an international, fast-paced and dynamic trading environment with time-sensitive, business critical activities requiring responsiveness, proactivity, strong planning and organisational skills and attention to details. The decisions must be quick and require excellent mastery of legal topics.

Our Culture:

We are committed to meet the energy needs of a growing population and we are committed to the energy transition. The volatility of the energy trading markets requires excellence in risk management and a culture of innovation. We are fully embracing the digital revolution.

Our people flourish in an environment that promotes expertise, entrepreneurship spirit, agility and a purpose-driven culture, generating boundless opportunities to learn, grow and achieve collaborative success.
