Job Description:
As Senior Counsel, Global Alliances Legal, you will join a team of attorneys supporting AbbVie's Global Alliances organization. You will shape and manage AbbVie's most strategic external collaborations—from discovery through commercialization—focusing on partnerships arising in Aesthetics, Toxins and Eye Care. This role demands strong leadership and strategic thinking. You will work cross-functionally with research and development, corporate strategy, business development, commercial teams, and other corporate functions, including intellectual property, litigation, corporate governance, investor relations, and public affairs. When needed, you will negotiate amendments or restructurings of existing alliances to ensure long-term value and performance. You will also support due diligence and business development by assessing, structuring, and negotiating new partnership opportunities that strengthen AbbVie's global pipeline and enterprise strategy. This role suits a problem solver who thrives at the intersection of science, law, business, and collaboration—and who is motivated to make a remarkable impact on patients' lives worldwide.

Partner with Global Alliances, asset strategy teams, disease strategy teams, and R D leadership across AbbVie's key therapeutic areas to align legal strategy with portfolio objectives and advance collaborative decision-making throughout the product life cycle. Advise the Global Alliances' Aesthetics, Toxins and Eye Care teams on alliance, partnership, and collaboration matters across the pharmaceutical and device life cycle. Interpret and analyze complex strategic agreements, including licenses, collaborations, and other alliances, and communicate clear legal advice to our business and leadership on issues arising from the research, development, and commercialization of partnered pharmaceutical and aesthetic products. Draft, review, and negotiate a wide variety of agreements, including licenses, collaboration agreements, co-development and co-promotion agreements, and other complex R D agreements with collaboration and research partners. Collaborate with the Transactions Legal team to evaluate, structure, and negotiate new Aesthetics, Toxins and Eye Care collaborations. Support due diligence and integration planning to ensure strategic fit and executional readiness. Advise clients and legal leadership clearly to maximize our pipeline's potential. Serve as a go-to resource for senior management, business stakeholders, and fellow attorneys on innovative approaches in complex areas of law, business, and technology. To enable success, this role must be in the office at least 3 days per week at either Abbott Park in North Chicago, IL or either of AbbVie's campuses in Irvine, CA or South San Francisco, CA.
