Legal Counsel to Zaver

6 days ago


Stockholm, Stockholm, Sweden Länk Recruitment Full time

Zaver is a fast-growing fintech-startup based in Stockholm. We develop innovative payment solutions to accelerate the revolution of mobile payments for the underserved markets. The mission is to disrupt finance by creating payment experiences for all dimensions, making the largest purchases in life as easy as buying a pair of shoes.

We're passionate about new technologies and customer experiences. We launched Zaver for Business in 2019 and since then we have gone from 0 to billions of SEK in total transaction volume, being Europe's probably first size-agnostic BNPL provider and processing cart sizes competitors can't and achieving acceptance rates others dream about. We are backed by some of the most prominent investors in the region, most of which are either founders of unicorns themselves, or backers of unicorns.

We are looking to grow our legal team with a Legal Counsel who can support our business in a broad range of legal matters.

What We Offer

We value an open atmosphere where collaboration and learning from one another is key and where we always do our best to find solutions. The questions will be challenging, and you will work in an inspiring and innovative work environment and have the chance to take part in an exciting journey as the company grows and expands its business at a rapid pace.

At this rocketship, the best ideas win. With the right team, effort, and problem-solving mindset, we are in the business of making a difference. By working with us you will make a real impact, both within the company and the industry.

Job Description

If you want to work closely with colleagues from our different teams and find innovative solutions to legal problems, this role is perfect for you. You will work from our offices located in central Stockholm and report to our Head of Legal.

You will:

  • Review new products (customer journeys etc.) and draft product terms, especially for payment services.
  • Draft, review and negotiate commercial contracts.
  • Help us stay up to date with regulatory updates, e.g. update our steering documents or internal routines to work with new regulations.
  • Provide guidance and advice to the organization on matters such as data privacy, consumer credit law, AML, and corporate law;
  • Help the organization assess legal/regulatory risks and implement control systems and procedures to manage and minimize them.

To succeed in this role, you need:

  • A law/business law degree from a university.
  • Excellent communication skills, fluent in Swedish and English.
  • At least three years of relevant experience, preferably from a business law firm, a financial supervisory authority, or an in-house role at a financial or tech company.
  • A solid interest in/willingness to learn about new technologies within the payment industry.
  • The ability to work in a team, take ownership, and get things done.

It is a plus if you have experience working with payment services or other regulated financial services and experience working with money laundering/terrorist financing regulations or with GDPR/information security. Proficiency in other languages than Swedish/English is also a plus.

In this recruitment, we are working together with Länk Recruitment. All applications will be reviewed, and interviews will be performed continuously. Do not hesitate to apply today by sending in your CV.
