Who are we looking for?
We are looking for a skilled, business-oriented lawyer to join Sisense’s in-house legal team. You should be able to handle a broad range of transactions independently and efficiently and to advise internal stakeholders on legal matters affecting every facet of the Company’s operations.

- Negotiate a high volume of software licensing, cloud services and professional services transactions, referral agreements and reseller agreements with customers and business partners, collaborating with sales teams and other internal stakeholders to successfully conclude deals in a timely manner.
- Negotiate other commercial agreements with customers, business partners and vendors including NDA’s, data protection agreements, consulting agreements, subcontractor agreements and vendor agreements.
