An international group within the commodities industry is looking to hire a legal counsel to support its trading, investment and compliance activities. This is a commercially focused role for a lawyer who is comfortable handling both transactional and contentious matters across cross-border business operations.
Key responsibilities
Advise on a broad range of trade, commercial and investment-related contracts
Review, draft and negotiate commercial agreements, transactional documents and related legal materials
Support M&A and investment matters, including due diligence and transaction support
Manage disputes arising from trade and commercial dealings, including arbitration, litigation strategy, negotiations and enforcement coordination
Oversee and manage external counsel across multiple matters
Provide guidance on compliance issues, including trade controls, competition matters and broader regulatory risk
Partner internal stakeholders on legal risk management across business activities
Support other legal and strategic matters as required
Requirements
Qualified lawyer from a common law jurisdiction
Around 8-12 years’ relevant post-qualification experience
Strong background in commodities, international trade, cross-border transactions or investment work
Experience gained in a leading law firm and/or in-house environment
Confident handling both advisory and dispute-related matters
Familiar with cross-border legal and regulatory issues, with sound commercial judgment
Able to work independently in a fast-paced environment

About Nat & Nat Search
A Singapore-based boutique recruitment firm focused on placing outstanding legal, finance, and adjacent governance talent into organisations where the hire truly matters.
Founded in 2026
Built on 30 years of collective experience
Founded in 2026 by two founders with a collective 30 years of recruitment experience, we built Nat & Nat Search to raise the bar on what clients and candidates should expect—sharp role calibration, honest market insight, and shortlists you can hire from.
Why "Nat & Nat"
Our name is personal. Co-founder Claire Lin named Nat & Nat Search after her twin daughters, reflecting the firm's founding philosophy: relationships built for the long term, with care, integrity, and accountability.
What makes us different
Unlike broad-based agencies, we stay intentionally concentrated on legal and finance hiring—because these hires are high-stakes. They shape risk, revenue, governance, and reputation. Specialisation gives us deeper networks in niche talent pools, better judgement on fit (technical + behavioural + stakeholder style), and faster, more accurate shortlists with fewer "maybe" profiles.
