Commercial Counsel, Americas

New York/Denver

We’re a leading online review platform, free and open to all. Our mission is to be a universal symbol of trust. We are well on our way - but there’s still an exciting journey ahead of us. Do you want to join us?

We are looking to hire an exceptional Commercial Counsel to join our Commercial Legal team.  The team handles a wide range of commercial contracts with businesses across multiple industries (including various big brands) and we’d like to hear from strong, commercial minded lawyers who are not afraid to roll their sleeves up and get stuck in. This is a key role in our Legal team (part of our wider Trust & Transparency function), which is at the core of the business and driving transformational changes as we scale and put trust & transparency at the heart of everything we do.  

 In your role you will:

  • Draft and negotiate key commercial contracts with customers, partners and suppliers in our Americas region. 
  • Help support the development of new innovative and automated tools/processes/documentation to deliver contracting at scale and accelerate Trustpilot’s ability to engage the world.
  • Liaise with key stakeholders in the business (including our Commercial, Partnership, Procurement and Marketing teams). 
  • Help support the development of frameworks for our partnership programs, including referral, syndication, application and partner purchase relationships.

We are looking for people with:

  •  A license to practice law in either New York, or Colorado.
  • 2+ years PQE gained in house (preferably in the technology sector), or at a national or international law firm working with technology clients.  
  • Knowledge of SaaS, software licensing and other technology agreements.
  • An ability to build relationships with stakeholders at all levels.
  • A fun, dynamic and positive personality, who remains calm under pressure.
  • Excellent drafting, negotiation and communication skills.
  • An ability to work independently in a fast-paced, global organization, whilst maintaining close contact with stakeholders across multiple locations.
  • An innovative, commercial minded individual who has a sound knowledge of commercial law but can apply that knowledge in an entrepreneurial environment.

We are:

A down to earth, fun and energetic team of talented lawyers who pride ourselves on being positively human and collaborative. Extensive legal knowledge is a given, but an ability to provide commercial, entrepreneurial advice in a dynamic environment is what makes us stand apart from the rest. The Trust & Transparency team is driving real change within the business and the wider online review sector, with a mission to help Trustpilot become a universal symbol of trust and upgrade the world. 

We offer:

  • Competitive salary, bonus and benefits package.
  • Excellent work-life balance and the opportunity to work flexibly.
  • Vibrant culture with unlimited snacks (be careful of your waistline), ping pong, darts and amazing social events.
  • An international, fast-paced, diverse and fun working environment.

An Insider's view of Trustpilot

How would you describe the company’s work-life balance?

The work-life balance is amazing. It’s been 5 years since I’ve had the luxury of being off on a weekend. Besides that, my managers don’t really bother me outside of my regular working hours, and I'm always encouraged to take my full hour for lunch. You also can’t beat working remotely; my daily commute is about 20 seconds each day

Jawayne

Account Development Representative

What does your typical day look like?

The thing I love the most about my role as an Account Executive is that every day looks different. Some days I’m more focused on setting up new meetings with prospective clients, whereas others I’m spending my time nurturing opportunities I’ve already created and building rapport with new people.

Emily

Account Executive

What makes someone successful on your team?

There are clear paths to move into management or maintain personal growth as an individual contributor. It's nice to know there is an achievable plan in place and management has always been supportive of my goals.

Jeremy

Senior Customer Integration Engineer

What is your vision for the company?

My personal vision for Trustpilot is to make it the preeminent review platform in the United States both in terms of volume of content and review credibility. Within the org, I envision Trustpilot operating in a way that allows us to understand greater detail of our business and to build the best team in the business!

John

Commercial Operations Director

What projects are you most excited about?

As a Talent Acquisition Specialist, my day-to-day consists of conducting technical phone screens, preparing candidates for interviews, and extending offers! Besides my daily responsibilities, I worked on a social media project recently. I was able to utilize my marketing degree to teach my colleagues how to rock their LinkedIn profiles and content.
