Your judgement will influence senior leaders as you turn complex legal risks and market developments into clear, commercially focused advice.

As a trusted advisor to Legal, Business and Sales leadership, you will help shape and execute Accenture’s market-facing strategy.

Your team

You will join the Amsterdam based Dutch legal contracting team of 8 experienced legal professionals, part of a broader regional legal contracting team together with the Nordics containing of Denmark, Sweden, Norway and Finland. The team is known for its team spirit and for being genuinely collaborative – the kind of place where people help each other and being available to check your thinking. Different cultures but the same instinct: getting things done together.

Your background

• Master in Dutch law

• 10+ years relevant experience in commercial contracting in information technology, consulting, GenAI, digital, software, outsourcing or telecoms – in-house or law firm

• Fluent Dutch and English

• Experience in data privacy and intellectual property, as well as in Dutch public procurement

Your skill requirements

Beyond the credentials: you negotiate with conviction, not just caution. You are equally adept in the boardroom and reviewing contracts. You know when to hold firm, when to find another way — and you have the curiosity to understand the technology behind the contracts you shape. You have proven ability to efficiently manage a large volume of transaction independently. You have experience negotiating and drafting technology-based agreements. And you have excellent oral and written communication skills.
