Scrive is filled with caring, smart and committed people who know that we need to collaborate to win. We care about each other and encourage ourselves and each other in our aim to be better and grow, both as people and as a company. Come join us and be a part of Scrive’s successful journey! 🚀

We’re looking to expand our Legal department with a Legal Counsel. The role will play a critical part in our expansion by strengthening the department’s capabilities to efficiently support other parts of the organisation both in Sweden and other countries.

As a Legal Counsel at Scrive, you will join a small, hands-on legal team and you will collaborate closely both within the team and with other parts of the organisation - mainly the revenue department. This is a remote role available for anyone living and working within the EU but if you are located in Stockholm and can work 2-3 days a week from our office we see it as a plus.

The area of electronic signatures and electronic IDs wherein Scrive operates, is full of misconceptions and prejudiced opinions. Therefore, you and the legal department are crucial for our growth; you are the ones that are helping our customers and partners to understand and appreciate the legal environment - and to ensure compliance. This in-house legal expertise is essential for the success of our sales and marketing activities, as well as for building lasting trust with our customers.

In your everyday work, you will:

• provide clear and correct legal/contractual advice to various internal functions at Scrive

• interpret and transform business requirements into legal/contractual requirements and vice versa.

• independently and efficiently manage various assigned legal matters, including i.a. the drafting, reviewing, negotiating and approving of contractual conditions in different contexts (sales/licence contracts, data processing agreements, partnership agreement etc.).

• contribute to sales processes as legal expert, primarily on contract law aspects, electronic signature legislation (i.a. the eIDAS-regulation) and data protection.

• consistently and proactively contribute to the development and enhancement of processes, tools, ways of working and knowledge sharing within Scrive.

To succeed in the role as Legal Counsel, you must have following qualifications:

• 3-5 years in relevant capacity such as legal counsel, legal associate, lawyer/attorney

• LLM, LLB or master’s degree in business law

• Hands-on experience and skills in drafting and negotiating commercial contracts.

• Full working proficiency in English language.

Bonus points:

• Eligible to work in Stockholm, Sweden.

• Hands-on knowledge of EU-legislation, in particular the eIDAS-regulation.

• Experience from SW/SaaS/LegalTech

• Technical know-how (e.g. coding) and/or sales experience

• Additional excellent language skills, primarily in French, German, Spanish, Italian or a Nordic language.

In this role we see that you are service-minded, flexible, thorough, structured and likes to take initiatives. We’re using a competence-based recruitment process where those competences will play an important role.

Our selection process is continuous, and the advert may close before the recruitment process is completed if we have moved forward to the screening or interview phase.
