About the role

You will have a crucial role in managing and advising on a wide range of legal matters in the Nordic countries, with a particular focus on lease negotiations and lease contracts. You will work closely with internal stakeholders across the organization, including our headquarter in Spain, providing strategic legal advice while ensuring the company´s objectives.

This is a role where your voice matters – you will have the opportunity to influence and impact business decisions and the internal legal framework for the future. You will be entrusted with the responsibility to provide proactive legal advice, structure and negotiate agreements, and help the business navigate complex legal issues in a dynamic environment, all while developing your professional skills and gaining deep insight into the industry and business operations.

The role is located in our Stockholm office.

• Offer practical, business-focused legal solutions and be a trusted advisor to internal teams.

Qualifications:

In addition to holding a law degree from one of the Nordic countries, the ideal candidate will have about 3 – 5 years of experience, either in a law firm or as an in-house lawyer, preferably with experience of lease law or commercial contracts. Experience within privacy law is a plus.

The candidate should have excellent communication skills in English. Proficiency in Swedish, Norwegian or Danish is a must. Experience from an international company and familiarity with the legal framework in the Nordic countries is advantageous.

We attach great importance to personal qualities such as integrity, communication skills and cooperation. This position involves maintaining contact with various internal and external stakeholders and it is therefore important that you are humble in your approach and comfortable with working with various stakeholders. You should have a curious mindset to be prepared to participate in a wide range of legal questions and do legal research in new areas as required from time to time.
