The Opportunity

Lysa’s vision is to set a new standard in savings through automation, efficiency and an unwavering dedication to our customers' best interests. We believe that many institutions work against their customers and we see a significant opportunity to establish a new financial champion.

We are on a mission to make it simpler for people to save smarter. To achieve this, we need to continuously develop our product and expand into new markets. We have an outstanding team, but to further accelerate growth, we need more talented colleagues. We are currently seeking a Legal Counsel with focus on digital compliance.

About the Role

As a Legal Counsel at Lysa, you will be part of the Legal function, while also being embedded in two of our cross-functional product development teams. At Lysa, a product development team is a group consisting of a product manager, developers, designers, and a legal counsel, all collaborating to drive a specific product area forward.

The teams you will be a part of:

• ARC (Attract Reach and Convert): Our ARC team is responsible for both Brand- and Performance marketing. The team also manages CRM activities (Customer Relationship Management), including owned channels such as email and push notifications, to nurture relationships and drive activation, retention, and loyalty across the customer journey.

• Internal Systems: Our internal systems product team plays a critical role in ensuring the efficiency, reliability, and security of the company's operations. The team is responsible for developing, managing, and optimizing the internal tools and processes that support day-to-day business activities.

You will work closely both within your colleagues in the product development teams and across the broader Legal function, handling a wide range of legal matters.

Key Responsibilities

• Bring your legal expertise into the product development teams to address operational needs and ensure that legal considerations are embedded in product decisions.

• Manage legal matters related to digital compliance (data privacy, ICT, DORA, AI) as well as general commercial law.

• Advise on procurement of third-party services, including conducting risk assessments, reviewing and negotiating contracts, and contract management.

• Enable innovation by providing legal advice on privacy risks, data-driven activities, and the use of digital technologies.

• Support the privacy and DORA compliance program, including updating privacy and cookie information, internal instructions and other steering documents.

• Handle legal matters related to customer communication, marketing, and brand management.

You will be part of a strong legal team within the Lysa Group, consisting of five lawyers working across Funds, Securities Operations, and Life Insurance. You will report to Lysa’s Legal Counsel for Digital Compliance.

What we are looking for

We believe you share our values at Lysa and that you are eager to join us on our journey to become European champions in savings, investments and pensions. You thrive in a fast paced digital environment where everything is evolving and enjoy the challenge of using your legal and regulatory knowledge to help create products our customers love.
