Corporate Paralegal  

M2 Comms is a PR and digital communication company that adopts a data-informed, evidence-based approach to storytelling. M2.0 is part of 7Gen which is a group of companies primarily centered around storytelling and technology. These companies include M2.0 Communications, a PR & digital communication company; Media Meter, a media monitoring and social listening SaaS company; Rythmos DB; a knowledge process outsourcing company that helps international media monitoring companies; and Outboxd, a fixtures design and construction company. With 20 years of multidisciplinary experience, we have developed our own data & analytics platforms and efficient client-servicing systems to ensure that our clients adopt an evidence-based approach to good storytelling. Our bias towards innovative thinking has always been the drive in each of our teams to always go beyond what is typical, and into what is next.

As the group of companies is rapidly expanding and gearing towards global expansion, the team is in need of a paralegal who has the ability to handle issues outside his/her experience and learn quickly in a fast-paced and often unstructured environment.
