Team mission
GetYourGuide's Legal Team is passionate about our business and our customers.

We are an international and multidisciplinary team with expertise in various fields of law. Serving our business flexibly, we often also work on topics outside of our core specialty. You will be able to count on amazing, highly motivated colleagues who truly enjoy working together and are eager to learn from each other. The position offers lots of opportunities for personal and professional growth within a fast moving environment. We enable you to work independently while giving you every support and opportunity to learn and grow on the job.
This is a full time role based in our Berlin HQ.
