About The Team
This is a newly created specialist role in JD Worldwide's International Compliance Department, within the Trust & Safety Operations function. You’ll be our subject‑matter expert on IP and infringement across our UK and EU marketplaces, handling trademark, copyright, counterfeit and other infringement cases end to end.
This is a hands‑on role. Most of your time will go on investigations and enforcement decisions, and you’ll use what you learn from that casework to help shape how we approach IP enforcement.
What You'll Do
- Investigate trademark, copyright, counterfeit and other infringement cases, including complex, high‑risk and escalated matters
- Review rights‑owner notices and seller counter‑evidence (registrations, authorisations, invoices, product listings) and make well‑reasoned enforcement decisions
- Take listing‑and seller‑level enforcement action, including on repeat infringement, reinstatement and remediation
- Find repeat infringers, linked accounts and patterns of marketplace abuse through investigation and analysis of case data
- Keep clear, well‑documented case records that hold up to appeal and independent review
- Be the go‑to expert for Trust & Safety colleagues on difficult IP questions and evidence assessment
- Bring your casework expertise to IP enforcement policies, evidence standards, SOPs and decision guidance
- Spot trends in cases, appeal outcomes and QA findings, and recommend improvements to standards and controls
- Escalate complex or novel matters to Compliance and Legal with clear analysis and a recommended position
- Give specialist input to Product and Engineering on IP reporting, case‑management tools and enforcement controls
- Support wider Trust & Safety investigations where IP expertise is needed
About You
- Substantial hands‑on experience in marketplace IP enforcement, brand protection, anti‑counterfeit operations or a related Trust & Safety specialism
- Strong practical knowledge of trademark, copyright and counterfeit issues in a UK and EU context, including notice‑and‑action processes
- A proven ability to assess evidence of ownership, authorisation and authenticity, and to reach sound enforcement decisions on your own
- Experience handling repeat infringement, seller enforcement and remediation cases
- Strong investigative skills, including open‑source research and linking related accounts and cases
- Clear, structured written reasoning, and the ability to explain and defend decisions
- Experience applying enforcement policies, SOPs or decision guidance, and helping to improve them
- Meticulous attention to detail and good judgement in grey‑area cases
- Experience at a large‑scale online marketplace or e‑commerce platform is strongly preferred
- Strong written and spoken English; Mandarin or another European language would be an advantage
