London, United Kingdom CloudFlare Full time

About this job

Cloudflare provides cutting edge security and performance services to a significant portion of the Internet, which can sometimes make it a target for litigation and regulation. We’re looking for a Risk & Litigation Counsel in EMEA to join our team responsible for responding to litigation matters and legal requests relating to Cloudflare’s role as an online intermediary.

As Risk & Litigation Counsel in EMEA, you will be responsible for assisting on all of our intermediary liability litigation and regulatory matters across the region. You’ll work with our internal legal team, external counsel, and stakeholders across the company to handle ongoing lawsuits in Europe, respond to litigation threats, and assist in broader legal strategy. And you’ll help Cloudflare navigate intermediary legal regimes like the EU’s Digital Services Act. The ideal candidate has the passion to keep pace with a fast moving docket, the curiosity to dive deep into evolving technology and Internet law, and the initiative to help scale our litigation function alongside a fast growing company.

In this role, you will:

  • Work with our existing litigation team to help formulate and implement litigation strategies relating to emerging intermediary law issues;
  • Evaluate and respond to litigation threats and legal matters;
  • Help select, onboard, and manage outside counsel on all aspects of litigation (including factual development, briefings, hearings etc.)
  • Work cross-functionally to further develop Cloudflare’s approach to the Digital Services Act and other intermediary laws across the region;
  • Assist in responding to and working with government regulators and private organizations on issues relating to Cloudflare’s approach to abuse on our network;
  • Communicate with business leaders across the company about intermediary liability issues in Europe, and provide training and resources to address future legal risks.

You Have:

  • Admitted to practice law in the US, UK, or Portugal.
  • 5+ years PQE either in a law firm or in-house (preferably with technology companies).
  • Experience litigating cases in one or more EU jurisdictions.
  • Strong communication skills and cooperative team player. Lead with empathy and understanding while embracing diverse points of view. Flexibility to adapt and thrive in a fast paced environment.
  • Ability to work cross-functionally, with lawyers and non-lawyers, to establish principled, thoughtful, and effective solutions efficiently and in an amenable manner.
  • Ability to organize, prioritize, and manage many tasks on complex projects.
  • An ambitious mindset that enables you to successfully work independently and autonomously with limited guidance, but also to use good judgment and call out issues when needed.
