Legal Associate

Aqran Vijandran helps businesses - local and foreign - thrive in Malaysia, safely, simply, and for the long term. We protect clients from risk, guide them through complexity, and build structures that last. Our work is commercially grounded and practical: clear advice, durable documentation, and solutions that work in real life, not just on paper.

This is a full-time, on-site role for a Legal Associate (Corporate & Advisory) based in Petaling Jaya. You will focus on drafting and reviewing commercial/corporate agreements, employment documentation and policies, and PDPA/data-privacy workstreams; preparing concise legal memoranda and client briefings; coordinating with clients, counterparties and service providers (SSM, notaries, translators) to keep matters moving. You'll work closely with partners, take early responsibility, and receive clear feedback and mentoring.

• LL.B; newly-called up to 2 years PQE (strong pupils awaiting call may be considered for a future start)
• Excellent drafting and research skills with a business-first mindset
• Strong command of English; Bahasa Malaysia an advantage; fluency in Mandarin is advantageous
• Comfortable managing multiple files concurrently with clear prioritisation and communication
• Tech-savvy and process-oriented (Microsoft 365, SharePoint/Teams; comfort with templates/automation)
