Chicago, United States Groupon Full time

Groupon is a marketplace where customers discover new experiences and services everyday and local businesses thrive. To date we have worked with over a million merchant partners worldwide, connecting over 16 million customers with deals across various categories. In a world often dominated by e-commerce giants, we stand out as one of the few platforms uniquely committed to helping local businesses succeed on a performance basis.

Groupon is on a radical journey to transform our business with relentless pursuit of results. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success. The impact here can be immediate due to our scale and the speed of our transformation. We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have the resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact.

Groupon's mission is to become the daily habit in local commerce and fulfill our purpose of building strong communities through thriving small businesses by connecting people to a vibrant, global marketplace for local services, experiences and goods. In the process, we're positively impacting the lives of millions of customers and merchants globally. Even with thousands of employees spread across multiple continents, we still maintain a culture that inspires innovation, rewards risk-taking and celebrates success.

We are looking for a Paralegal to join our team in Chicago. The Paralegal will get to work across a broad range of subject areas in a fast-paced and highly-collaborative legal department. In this role, you will assist with legal proceedings, transactions and other legal matters by continuously identifying needs and optimizing procedures and solutions. This role works cross functionally across areas of legal, including litigation, corporate securities, commercial, employment, regulatory, and compliance matters.

As a global ecommerce organization with millions of customers and thousands of employees in multiple countries, Groupon presents exciting challenges for our Legal department to tackle. The Legal team is a global function that handles the commercial, regulatory, employment, IP, risk, and fraud matters at Groupon. We collaborate and work cross-functionally across all business channels including product, marketing, Groupon Goods, information security, corporate development, and more.

We're a "best of both worlds" kind of company. We're big enough to have resources and scale, but small enough that a single person has a surprising amount of autonomy and can make a meaningful impact. We're curious, fun, a little intense, and kind of obsessed with helping local businesses thrive. Does that sound like a compelling place to work?

Responsibilities:

  • Manage Groupon's litigation files, calendar, and legal hold systems
  • Coordinate and manage Groupon worldwide eBilling platform
  • Assisting with various discovery projects, employment investigations risk matters, and litigation tasks
  • Assist with corporate subsidiary record keeping

Beware of Recruitment Fraud: Groupon follows a merit-based recruitment process without charging job seekers any fees. We've noticed an increase in recruitment fraud, including fake job postings and fraudulent interviews and job offers aimed at stealing personal information or money. Be cautious of individuals falsely representing Groupon's Talent Acquisition team with fake job offers. If you encounter any suspicious job offers or interview calls demanding money, recognize these as scams. Groupon is not responsible for losses from such dealings.
