Groupon is a global ecommerce organization with millions of customers and thousands of employees in multiple countries. We present exciting challenges for our Legal department to tackle. The Legal team is a global function that handles 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.
