The other portion of the role involves supporting the SVP & Associate GC for Endeavor's employment law practice in the Americas, working with all businesses under the Endeavor umbrella on employee-related legal matters. Though this is an assistant-level position, there will be opportunities for the right candidate to engage in meaningful work relating to talent endorsement agreements, talent regulatory matters, employment disputes, and employment agreements. The ideal candidate has graduated from law school, has strong legal acumen, some familiarity with talent contracts or employment, and an insatiable desire to learn more. Deals you will be assisting with include talent agreements, employment agreements, and employment policies.
The job entails basic administrative assistant work (rolling calls, maintaining a calendar, tracking projects, and preparing and maintaining client files), but the right candidate will also be able to handle substantive work under the direction of two executives.
