Informations suppl\xc3\xa9mentaires
The Legal Department provides legal advice to all of TotalEnergies companies in the UAE to protect the interest of TotalEnergies and minimize legal risks. The scope of the job includes many high value assets with complex and voluminous contractual arrangements. Working in an environment where the legal regime (esp. the energy sector) is not highly developed with recent and constantly changing legislations, so clear answers are often not available. The Legal Department is involved with negotiations and legal discussions which can be protracted and require a flexible, diplomatic approach in order to achieve the business objectives without significant compromise on legal issues.
A long-standing player in the energy sector, an integrated multi-energy company (oil and biofuels, natural gas and green gases, renewables and electricity) and a global industrial company, TotalEnergies is also a responsible employer and a corporate citizen. Every day, more than 100,000 employees are focused on reinventing energy in over 130 countries.
