Job Description
At Kyndryl, we design, build, manage and modernize the mission-critical technology systems that the world depends on every day. So why work at Kyndryl? We are always moving forward – always pushing ourselves to go further in our efforts to build a more equitable, inclusive world for our employees, our customers and our communities.
We're looking for a German-qualified lawyer to join our Legal Team, supporting Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. As part of Kyndryl's Legal Department, you'll advise on high-volume IT transactions, support various projects in a dynamic tech environment and help solve various legal issues, working closely with colleagues across Europe and the U.S. in a collaborative, flat-hierarchy international team that values excellence and team spirit. If solving complex legal challenges, negotiating large-scale IT deals and partnering with diverse business functions excites you, this role is for you.
You're good at what you do and possess the required experience to prove it. However, equally as important – you have a growth mindset; keen to drive your own personal and professional development. You are customer-focused – someone who prioritizes customer success in their work. And finally, you're open and borderless – naturally inclusive in how you work with others.

- Outstanding analytical and problem-solving skills, attention to detail, excellent negotiation skills, and solid business acumen.
- Full professional proficiency in German and English (C2 level in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages).
- Experience in the field of IT law is very useful, but not a prerequisite. We welcome specialists in all areas, e.g. corporate law, labor law, anti-trust law, public procurement law, data protection law.
- Experience handling complex transactions (including outside of IT) and working as part of international teams would be considered an advantage.
- The role is available to candidates throughout the European Union and does not require physical presence in Germany.
