ABOUT LeCoR
LeCoR stands for Legal, Compliance & Risk and is the legal arm of Sand Tech Holdings Ltd (the holding company of Sand Technologies and ALX). Our mission is simple: "Protect and defend the company" and our strategy is to create world-class CATs and TRAPs to control RATs
Yes, you heard it right. This means we do 3 things for our customers (our internal or external stakeholders):
- We create Contracts, give Advice, and close Transactions (CATS).
- We deliver Training, conduct Regulatory Assessments, and manage Policies (TRAPS).
- And we do all these things to keep Risk At Tolerance (RATS).
As Lecorians, we challenge each other with complex tasks and let innovation and creativity run their course. You will own projects and work streams and rotational management roles. We have a strong emphasis on systems and processes in order to optimize for efficiency and we value fun, freedom, and feedback

Pretty cool, right? If you are excited about these "unorthodox" concepts, you are in the right place…
ABOUT THE ROLE
We invite you to rock with us in our band. The role offers the perfect opportunity for professional and personal development in a dynamic, fast-paced environment. As a rock band, teamwork and collaboration are at the center of what we do. But in order to be in a band, you also have to have your own unique groove.
Your Mission: You'll be in charge of creating innovative solutions for commercial transactions, compliance programs, and staff training.
Your Goals/Activities
- Drafting and negotiating commercial contracts for our various business units (today a lease for space in Cairo, tomorrow an MSA for a client in California, and next week a DPA for a vendor in Romania).
- Evaluate the risk and compliance levels of our business operations to create compliance maps, risk reports and business improvement plans.
- Manage commercial risk and entity structuring, oversee our litigation portfolio, manage outside counsel, and conduct due diligence on potential business partners.
- The LeCoR band plays in these stages (functions & projects):
- Privacy: ensuring that the organisation is compliant with data protection laws worldwide (from GDPR to POPIA to CCPA).
- Company Secretary: ensuring corporate compliance and up-to-date corporate records in +10 countries
- Intellectual Property: registering our trademarks and patents across the world.
- J.A.N.I.S (just a nonconformist innovative system): Develop and test JANIS - our automated interactive tech solution for our legal & compliance products.
Key Performance Indicators (KPIs):
- CSAT (customer satisfaction score - how much do our fans love us?)
- OTD (on time delivery - are we shipping those CATs and TRAPs on time?)
- AHT (average handle time - how long did it take to get those CATs and TRAPs ready?)
- FRR (feedback response rate - are we getting enough feedback from our fans/customers?)
- FCR (First Contact Resolution, are we solving problems in one hit?)
REQUIREMENTS:
We want to rock with you if you have:
- a law degree
- 5 to 7 years experience working for a boutique law firm or startup
- Relevant experience in Corporate Law, Employment Law, Data Protection Law, or Intellectual Property Law
- Project Management experience in executing projects from start to finish and on time.
- G-Suite: proficient in G-Suite tools such as Google Sheets, Slides, and Docs
- Robocop Mindset: You are curious about the intersection of law and technology
- Magician Mindset: You believe things are never what they seem to be
- Spartan Mindset: You don't give up. No retreat, no surrender
- Rockstar Mindset: You make it happen. The show must always go on
- Lego Mindset: You like to build. Every piece fits somewhere; every piece is movable
- Master Yoda Mindset: Do or do not, never try This is a place for doers, not just talkers; for the extraordinary, not the ordinary; and for the fearless, not the fearful.
NICE TO HAVE:
- Experience in cross-border projects & transactions, including M&A or corporate finance
- French and/or Arabic language proficiency.
- You are qualified to practice law in countries in South America such as Brazil or Mexico
