Introduction
If you want to work for a company that provides its team of carefully selected lawyers a high degree of independence, while offering constant exchange and interaction, an open doors policy with an experienced legal team, the rare opportunity to combine meaningful legal work with work-life balance and flexibility, and a working culture that values results, then this is the position for you.
Your Role and Responsibilities
IBM is looking for an Attorney/Lawyer who will verify compliance with FCPA and other anti-corruption laws.

In particular, the successful candidate will need to assess red flags and understand the associated legal risks, with the opportunity to collaborate with global and regional teams, including but not limited to, Compliance Officers, Business, and Contract Management teams.
