We believe in a world where growth thrives across borders and cultures. Our mission is to guide companies on their journey by providing services and technology that enables global talent management and delivers a human experience.


As an Employer-of-Record (EOR) provider, we offer the HR and compliance infrastructure essential for companies to expand internationally. We take care of the complex, behind-the-scenes work, allowing companies to focus on the strategies that drive their success. We are For People, By People. 


The future of work is borderless, and so are we. Our people are located around the globe — in the U.S., the UK, India, Colombia, China, and beyond. Diversity and belonging are not just values, they are who we are. 


We are also committed to making a positive impact. Through our Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) impact initiative, we are addressing our environmental footprint and promoting social responsibility. Our impact program is central to our vision and culture, focusing on employee wellness, diversity, charitable work, and ethical corporate governance.


If you are interested in working in a people-centric, global organization, apply below.



Responsibilities
  • Provide timely, practical advice on the full range of employment‑law issues (agreements, leave, working time, expenses and terminations) to operations, sales and people‑teams across Europe.
  • Draft and update contracts, separation agreements and transfer agreements; monitor legal and regulatory developments and translate them into guidance for internal teams.
  • Build and lead the European employment‑law function: manage outside counsel cost‑effectively, mentor and develop legal colleagues and design training for internal stakeholders.
  • Represent Atlas externally: advise clients during onboarding and ongoing support, helping them understand local requirements and manage risk.
  • Work closely with the Vice President & Associate General Counsel and cross‑functional teams on strategic initiatives and help shape global compliance standards.
What we’re looking for
  • At least eight years of employment‑law experience in Europe (in‑house experience at a global organisation is a strong advantage), with deep knowledge of EU employment directives and national laws.
  • Excellent drafting and negotiation skills, with the ability to turn complex legal issues into clear, commercial guidance.
  • Experience leading and mentoring legal professionals and collaborating across functions and regions.
  • Strong organisational skills and the ability to balance multiple priorities in a fast‑growing environment.
  • Desire to contribute to a people‑centric culture that values inclusivity and professional growth.
