Spanish term

asumiendo los poderes inherentes a la titularidad jurídica de la misma

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s) Employment contract
Hi everyone,

I'm having some issues fitting this particular phrase into the sentence.

Here you have my attempt:

Mr/Ms -------------- shall offer their services to the company as xxxxxxxxxx, assuming the inherent powers of said role, delivering of general objectives, independently and acting responsibility, under the criteria and direct instructions of the company’s administrative body.

And the original:

D. -------------- prestará sus servicios en la empresa como xxxxxxxx, asumiendo los poderes inherentes a la titularidad jurídica de la misma, relativos a los objetivos generales de aquélla, con autonomía y plena responsabilidad, bajo los criterios e instrucciones directas del órgano de administración de la empresa.

Been scratching my head over this one for a while, so any suggestions would be most appreciated.

Thanks!

assuming the powers inherent to its legal ownership

In other words, the company's legal ownership. I imagine this is a position where the person holds some kind of power of attorney as a director of the company, to sign documents for it, etc., as if they were the owner.

Here they are talking about property in general, but the idea of legal ownership applies equally to companies:

"Legal ownership and beneficial ownership are two different things. Legal ownership of property is the person on title which has no real value to it. And the beneficial ownership is the actual property owner. The Legal owner is not the true owner of the property; he/she holds the title for the beneficial owner."
