We needed a native English speaker who has studied a bachelor of laws at a university where English is the language of instruction because the employee would be required to carefully draft, construe, interpret and negotiate contracts (and case law and legislation in English). These contracts are in English and are typically governed by US, UK, Canadian, Australia, NZ law, therefore rendering knowledge of the law in one or more of these jurisdictions necessary.
