Our Purpose - Bridging the World Through Travel 

We believe travel allows people to enjoy, learn and experience more of the amazing world we live in. It brings individuals and cultures closer together, fostering empathy, understanding and happiness.
We are a skillful, driven and diverse team from across the globe, united by a passion to make an impact. Harnessing our innovative technologies and strong partnerships, we aim to make travel easy and rewarding for everyone.

Get to know our team:

The FinTech Legal Team deals with how money moves from the Bookers to the Travel Service Suppliers we represent on agoda.com. This covers everything from striking deals with payment service providers globally so that our Bookers can pay in their preferred currency, card, e-wallet, and pay when they want to pay (e.g. in installments, or later) to developing our own in-house FinTech solutions.

Our Team is an integral part of growing the Agoda business, and so interacts with every department in Agoda globally. We work with Product developers and commercial teams to advise them through the project life cycle, from whiteboard brainstorming sessions to strategic contract negotiations, obtaining and maintaining necessary licenses, permits or authorizations, product analysis (e.g., compliance with financial regulations, consumer protection, etc.), all the way until the project completion.

The opportunity:

As a Legal Fintech Intern, you will work closely with the team on various global projects and gain a glimpse into the active world of global payments. This includes understanding the Singapore Payments Acts and the Asia financial regulatory landscape, as well as a light touch on financial crime. Learning how to communicate with impact and provide commercial advice. You will get a chance to develop agility and the ability to deal with several matters at the same time: time management, project management, and stakeholder engagement, as well as build user-friendly knowledge repositories.

In this role, you'll get to: 

  • Build, maintain, and improve policies and knowledge repositories
  • Provide project management support for FinTech projects
  • Shadow our FinTech Counsels on their various projects and learn first-hand how to provide commercial advice and develop FinTech Products
  • Input into contract review and negotiation strategy
  • Interact with Departments outside of Legal and see what it takes to run a global platform

Requirements:

  • Currently a 3rd-year student or below with strong written and verbal communication skills in English

It's great if you have: 

  • Pursuing a Bachelor’s or Master’s in Law and Legal Studies
