From Agoda's posting. “We” and “our” refer to the employer.
At Agoda, we bridge the world through travel. Our story began in 2005, when two lifelong friends and entrepreneurs, driven by their passion for travel, launched Agoda to make it easier for everyone to explore the world.
Today, we are part of Booking Holdings [NASDAQ: BKNG], with a diverse team of over 7,000 people from 90 countries, working together in offices around the globe. Every day, we connect people to destinations and experiences, with our great deals across our millions of hotels and holiday properties, flights, and experiences worldwide.
No two days are the same at Agoda. Data and technology are at the heart of our culture, fueling our curiosity and innovation. If you’re ready to begin your best journey and help build travel for the world, join us.
In the age of technology, things are constantly changing. The travel market is much the same, being more dynamic and complex than ever. Agoda’s Legal team is well suited to take on the challenges presented, adopting a proactive mindset to tackle challenges and solve problems. We are quick on our feet, decisive, and collaborate with multiple departments. We hire out-of-the-box thinkers that are well grounded with ethics and legal knowledge to ensure that Agoda achieves the right results, the right way.
We are looking for a highly autonomous, strategic, commercial and regulatory-focused sole legal counsel to lead our legal function in South Korea. As our only on-the-ground legal resource, you will act as the primary legal anchor for our local business. You will navigate a fast-moving and heavily regulated digital landscape, providing pragmatic advice to senior management while safeguarding our business interests.
The ideal candidate will have deep expertise in South Korean digital commerce regulations, privacy laws, and consumer protection. They will possess the confidence to handle complex issues with minimal supervision. The role requires sound legal judgment, strong analytical skills, the ability to manage complex multi-jurisdictional matters, and a practical, business-oriented approach to risk.
The candidate should be comfortable working with cross-functional teams, coordinating external counsel, advising senior stakeholders, and helping the business move quickly while maintaining strong legal and compliance standards.
