About This Role

This is a foundational legal role at a major multinational manufacturing company, offering fresh LL.B graduates a rare opportunity to gain hands-on exposure to corporate and labor law in a fast-paced, commercial environment. You will be immersed in contract review, legal research, and administrative case management, rather than courtroom litigation, making it ideal for those interested in in-house legal practice. Transsion, known for brands like Tecno and Infinix, is a leading player in African technology and manufacturing, so this role provides a strong platform for building a corporate legal career.

What the Requirements Say About This Role

The emphasis on a fresh graduate with no prior experience signals that the company is looking for raw potential, trainability, and a strong academic foundation rather than seasoned expertise. The requirement for "excellent command of the English language" implies that you will be drafting and reviewing international contracts and correspondence, so fluency in legal English is non-negotiable. The specific mention of interest in corporate and labor law suggests the role will focus heavily on employment compliance and business transactions, not general legal practice.

How to Approach This Application

Your application should demonstrate your ability to think like a corporate lawyer, not just a law student. Highlight any coursework, moot court experience, or internships where you drafted contracts, researched labor regulations, or handled legal documentation. Because the role is entry-level but at a high-profile company, emphasize your attention to detail, organizational skills, and eagerness to learn—employers here value reliability and a proactive attitude over raw experience. Tailor your cover letter to show you understand Transsion’s business in Ethiopia and how legal support drives manufacturing and distribution.

Who This Role Suits
