Senior Legal Counsel (Generalist)

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

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AI-native team, no outdated workflows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
