Who We Are

At Kyndryl, we design, build, manage and modernize the mission-critical technology systems that the world depends on every day. So why work at Kyndryl? We are always moving forward – always pushing ourselves to go further in our efforts to build a more equitable, inclusive world for our employees, our customers and our communities.

The Role

The candidate will be part of Kyndryl’s Cybersecurity, Privacy, Data & AI Legal team (“CPDA Legal”), a global cybersecurity, privacy, data, AI and regulatory legal team spread among the U.S., U.K. and four (4) EU countries and supporting a dynamic global business. The role would suit a candidate that has an international outlook and ability to interact with legal and business colleagues around the globe on a variety of cybersecurity, privacy and regulatory matters.

The candidate will work on a wide range of cybersecurity, privacy and related regulatory matters in connection with the company's business; provide legal advice and guidance to business teams, including members of the Chief Information Security Office (CISO), the Cyber Security Incident Response Team (CSIRT), and relevant Global Practices, as well as members of the global legal department; manage and lead multi-stakeholder incident investigative teams; and provide proactive advice in a creative and business-centric way.

The ideal candidate will have some understanding of existing and emerging global legal and regulatory developments relating to cybersecurity and data privacy. More important than prior experience, the candidate will be naturally inquisitive and proactive, have effective written and oral communication skills, possess strong project management skills, and be genuinely interested in developing expertise in the increasingly important fields of cybersecurity and data privacy.

  • Strong written and oral communication skills
  • Proven ability to work as part of diverse and multi-cultural teams comprised of legal and business colleagues

If you are hired, the anticipated compensation range for the position is $ 154,710 to $371,300 based on a full-time schedule. Your ultimate compensation may vary depending on your geography, job-related skills and experience. For part time roles, the compensation will be adjusted appropriately. 

If this is a sales role, you may be eligible for additional incentive compensation opportunities. For non-sales roles, you may be eligible for Kyndryl’s Shared Success plan.
