A minimum with 1-2 years of experience within UK law, preferably in a fast growing tech company.
Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English and strong attention to details
Experience from working with commercial contracts. Beneficial if you have good knowledge and skills to support a SaaS and/or cloud-based technology company.
Be able to consume, communicate information to internal and external stakeholders and execute at fast speed, and work well in a fast-paced and agile environment
Strong business vs risk acumen, i.e possess a solid understanding for when the business needs a quick reply, as opposed to a extensive deep dive for a exhaustive answer
We also believe you:
Have good organizational skills and an ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously with a strong work ethic and thrive in a commercial oriented, hands on environment.
Are curious, open and have a business oriented mindset, while at the same time having good legal analytical skills and attention to details.
Ability to listen to the needs of the business and to consider those in legal advice.
Any company would say its employees are smart, capable, and fun to work with – and our employees certainly are! But we’re also driven by an unshakable sense of purpose, an urgency to act, and the motivation to devote our talents and energy to fighting the planet’s most important fight.
Location
We operate on a hybrid remote model with offices in Stockholm, Copenhagen and London. We believe that you are based in the greater London region and can be in the London office a couple of days a week, with the possibility to work remotely when it is more suitable for you and your work schedule.
We adopt a continuous selection process, so make sure to apply as soon as possible. Normative handles sensitive financial data and we will therefore conduct a background check before signing any candidate.
