## Description

We are looking for a Senior Legal Counsel – an in-house generalist who owns legal projects end-to-end, from framework design down to forms and filings and ensure that legal work is implemented effectively in day-to-day business operations.

**WHAT YOU’LL BE DOING:**

- Act as a legal generalist and key partner to internal teams – compliance, operations, finance, technology

- Own regulatory implementation projects: internal policies, compliance frameworks (including DORA in Malta), ongoing regulatory reporting

- Lead legal side of new market entry: entity setup, licensing, engagement with local regulators and consultants

- Draft and negotiate commercial agreements, including complex non-standard contracts in new markets

- Advise on employment and HR matters across multiple legal entities, including labour law and employment-related contracts

- Manage external counsels where specialist advice is needed

**WHAT WE LOOK FOR:**

- Qualified lawyer, 7+ years of experience – in-house, law firm, or both

- Experience in a regulated or licensed business is a strong plus

- You handle a wide range of legal matters independently and to deadline

- You enjoy long, process-heavy projects – the result is a clean, compliant operation, not a headline deal

- Advanced user of modern AI tools; you use them daily

- Clear communicator - you explain complex things simply

**WHY SHOULD YOU JOIN OUR TEAM?**

- Real ownership of your projects, short decision lines

- Fully remote from anywhere in the world

- Multiple jurisdictions, genuine variety of legal work

- AI-native team, no outdated workflows

- 40 paid days off, competitive compensation
