Legal Counsel Marketing
Red Bull Media House
Are you ready to bring your legal expertise to global marketing projects and help shape the agreements, frameworks, and guidance that keep bold ideas moving?
As Legal Counsel Marketing, you’ll act as a trusted legal business partner for marketing, media, and digital technology teams at Red Bull. Based in Elsbethen, you’ll advise on international marketing projects, support contract drafting and negotiations, and help business teams navigate copyright, contract, marketing, and data privacy law with confidence.
In this role, you’ll work closely with colleagues across Legal MMDT, Global Marketing, the Regions legal team, and external partners. Your expertise will help enable all sorts of marketing initiatives while ensuring legal compliance and practical solutions.
Areas that play to your strengths
All the responsibilities we'll trust you with:
You’ll advise and support internal clients on legal matters related to global marketing activities, including event sponsorship agreements, talent agreements, terms of participation, event agency agreements, licence agreements, letters of intent, independent contractor agreements, participant disclaimers, etc.
You’ll draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial and marketing-related agreements in English, and ideally also in German. Your work will help business teams move projects forward while protecting Red Bull’s legal and commercial interests.
You’ll provide first-level support on data privacy questions from your inhouse clients, especially in relation to consumer activations, participatory events, and marketing initiatives. You’ll help ensure that projects align with GDPR, consumer protection, and relevant legal requirements.
You’ll revise existing templates and create new legal templates, toolkits, and playbooks for Global Marketing units and country teams. In close alignment with Area Legal Counsels, you’ll help ensure these materials are practical, efficient, and suitable for use across different markets.
You’ll prepare and deliver legal trainings for business teams, enabling them to handle standard legal tasks more independently. Through clear guidance and practical support, you’ll strengthen awareness of legal requirements and improve day-to-day collaboration.
You’ll work with legal and business colleagues across jurisdictions, including teams in Europe, LATAM, MEWA, Asia Pacific, the UK, and the US. You’ll also collaborate with external law firms and legal departments of contractual partners when specialist or cross-border input is required.
