In their own words
About the company & team
Clifford Chance is an international law firm that works across borders every day – in different jurisdictions, cultures, and languages. Our culture is open and inclusive: we see diversity as a source of strength. Space to learn, to develop, and to grow. Working with profound legal expertise and commercial insight. Advising and litigating at moments that truly matter. Innovative, technology-driven solutions in sectors that are crucial for our clients.
More than 300 legal and non-legal professionals work in Amsterdam. From our monumental building next to Amsterdam Central Station, we advise (inter)national companies and financial institutions. Our culture is informal, approachable, pragmatic, and a little bit rebellious – international and with an Amsterdam edge.
Within this product group, we advise clients on employment law, pension law, and compensation-related issues. The practice is strongly connected to transactional, advisory, and contentious matters, including M&A, restructurings, investigations, disputes, and cross-border workforce projects.
You will work on strategic legal advice for international clients regarding, among other things, executive hiring and exit arrangements, compensation policy, employee participation, reorganizations, employee data, outsourcing, pensions, and incentives. In doing so, we work closely with colleagues from, among others, corporate, finance, tax, and disputes.
The practice combines legal depth with commercial and social relevance. You will gain insight into how personnel, governance, and compensation issues play an important role in large transactions and complex international advisory processes.
