Korn Ferry is partnering with a France-based, publicly listed global retail technology company in a search for a senior legal leader to head the legal function across the Americas.
Our client is scaling rapidly in the Americas and expanding beyond electronic shelf labels into a broader retail technology platform that includes IoT, cloud software, AI, computer vision, retail media, and recurring services.
The Role
This is a high-impact role for a commercially minded lawyer who can lead complex commercial transactions with major retailers and strategic enterprise customers while also bringing the breadth to advise on technology, compliance, data privacy, cybersecurity, AI, and broader business matters. This position reports to the CEO of Americas.
The Candidate
This leader will be a trusted advisor to regional business leadership, manage a lean team, and help build the legal processes and infrastructure needed for the next stage of growth.
We are especially interested in candidates with strong experience in commercial transactions with large retailers, a Tech/SaaS background (required), and the executive leadership presence to operate confidently with a regional executive team in a global, matrixed environment.
For the right legal executive, this is a rare chance to join a market-leading technology company at an inflection point and help shape how legal enables growth across one of its most strategic regions.
