As our Legal Counsel, you will take a hands-on, business‑facing role for a commercial legal counsel, partnering closely with our commercial teams while supporting the wider business on a range of legal matters. The successful candidate will be a flexible self‑starter with a global outlook, strong stakeholder management, and a collaborative working style. What will I be doing? Draft, review, and negotiate complex commercial agreements, including MSAs, SOWs, amendments, vendor/procurement agreements, NDAs, DPAs, novations, referral/partnership agreements, terminations, guarantees, and ancillary schedules. Act as a key point of contact for commercial deal work, providing clear risk‑based advice and pragmatic alternatives to accelerate safe, high‑quality outcomes. Create, maintain, and continuously improve templates, clause libraries, playbooks, and negotiation guidance to drive consistency and speed. Partner with Product, Commercial, Finance, Risk, Compliance, and InfoSec on go‑to‑market initiatives, ensuring contract terms reflect operational realities and regulatory requirements. Support the team on data and privacy contracting topics (e.g., DPAs, data transfer mechanisms, sub‑processor and security schedules) in coordination with Privacy and Security. Embed regulatory considerations (e.g., payments/fintech frameworks, consumer protection) into commercial terms; coordinate with Compliance on AML/sanctions and other mandatory provisions. What skills do I need? Qualified lawyer (relevant jurisdiction) with 5–7 years of professional experience at a law firm and/or in-house within financial services, fintech, or tech-enabled businesses. Strong experience drafting and negotiating cross‑border commercial contracts in fast‑paced environments. Solid grounding in general commercial, contractual, and compliance issues; ability to translate legal risk into actionable business guidance. Working familiarity with payments/financial services/fintech is desirable; comfort with online platform/e‑commerce contracting is advantageous. Practical knowledge of GDPR/data protection in a contracting context (DPAs, data transfer, security annexes). Tech‑savvy: comfortable with CLM/e‑signature/CRM, collaboration suites, contract redlining platforms, and basic data/AI tools; able to learn new systems quickly. Proven ability to proactively spot issues, design pragmatic remediations, and tailor advice to audience and risk profile. Excellent communication skills; capable of crisp writing and structured, outcome‑oriented negotiation. A motivated self‑starter who exercises sound judgement and thrives in international, cross‑functional teams across multiple time zones. Fluency in English (written and spoken) is required; French or another European language is a plus. What do we offer?
