Sweep is hiring a Legal Intern for 6 months, tasked with proactively addressing legal issues and helping to establish Sweep as an authoritative voice on how companies can achieve sustainability goals.

Sweep maps climate and ESG data across an entire business to reduce carbon emissions, improve social and environmental performance, and create audit-ready reports to run the best sustainability programs. Sweep empowers companies to build resilience to global challenges with technology.

What will I be doing?

As a Legal Intern, you will have the opportunity to work closely with the Legal Director on issues that are critical to the advancement of the mission of our company and customers. You will tackle real-world challenges that require an acute mind and a high degree of creativity, within a dynamic working environment. You’re a self-motivator who seeks to be challenged and pursues excellence in everything you do. You also maintain balance, combining a serious passion for law with interests outside of the classroom to share with colleagues.

To be more specific, this includes:

• Perform legal research and ensure legal monitoring
• Participate in the drafting and negotiation of contracts
• Contribute to the setup of reliable and up-to-date legal process documentation
• Help draft internal policies
• Ensure the follow-up of pre-litigation and litigation
• Advise all departments on various subjects (digital law, regulatory compliance, employment law, contract law, IP law, competition law, etc.)

At Sweep, artificial intelligence is part of how we work, learn, and build. Every team member uses AI tools daily to speed up operations, improve decision making, and unlock creativity. We don’t expect you to be an expert on day one, but we do expect curiosity, a willingness to experiment, and the desire to use AI as a true partner in your work.

Whether it’s analyzing information, drafting content, improving workflows, designing better employee experiences, or supporting distributed teams, you’ll use AI to work faster and smarter. We provide guidance, tools, and best practices so you can get the most out of it. We’re looking for candidates who already have hands-on experience with AI tools in a professional setting. You should be comfortable using AI to support your daily work, enhance productivity, and create new solutions. If you naturally reach for AI to amplify what you do, you’ll feel right at home here.

That sounds right for me. What do I need to bring?

Glad you asked. This is who we’re looking for:

Qualifications

• Currently pursuing a Master II in law, ideally in digital law, IP law, environmental law, or privacy law
• You have a strong interest in climate change issues and want to be the change you want to see in the world
• You already have prior internship experience working with cross-disciplinary teams in a fast-paced work environment and are able to move projects forward

Qualities

• You are structured, motivated, result-oriented, and have strong organizational skills with a demonstrated ability to multitask in a rapidly changing environment
• You are humble, curious, creative, proactive with a great sense of humor
• You are fluent in English and French; other languages would be a plus

If you don’t check all the boxes, don’t worry; we’ll be happy to hear why you’re still a good fit for us!

Copy that. And what’s in it for me?
