The posting

Agicap is one of Europe's fastest growing fintech scale-ups. Its platform helps mid-market companies manage cash, liquidity and financial operations. Founded in Lyon in 2016, Agicap serves over 8,000 customers in twelve countries, with about 650 people.

Germany is one of our main markets, and our German customers are getting larger. We are hiring our first German-speaking lawyer to own German legal matters end to end and to join a Legal team of four based in France and Italy.

Key responsibilities

  • Review, draft and negotiate commercial contracts with customers, partners and service providers, in German and in English: SaaS subscription agreements, MSAs, DPAs, SLAs, NDAs.
  • Lead negotiations directly with counterparties' legal teams on German deals.
  • Cover the UK, Spain and the US, and act as back-up for the other countries.
  • Support the completion of security, AI and vendor assessment questionnaires.
  • Support Customer Success teams on existing customers: amendments, renewals, terminations, complaints and unpaid invoices.
  • Give clear answers on our terms, and help the teams answer recurring questions without Legal.
  • Handle data protection matters in customer contracts: DPAs, sub-processors, international transfers.
  • Support the DPO on GDPR compliance for the German entity and on data requests from customers.
  • Manage pre-litigation and litigation matters with customers and suppliers in Germany and your other countries.
  • Manage external counsel in Germany: briefing, scope, budget.
  • Support corporate housekeeping of the German entity: commercial register filings, powers of attorney and delegations of authority.
  • Handle German compliance questions with the Compliance lead.
  • Be the team's reference on German law: standard terms (AGB), form requirements, B2B rules.
  • Provide support to the other teams (Finance, Product, Tech, Marketing) and conduct legal research on diverse topics.
  • Adapt our templates and contribute to the negotiation playbook and the Legal team's processes.

Key stakeholders

  • VP Legal & Social Affairs (line manager) and the Legal team.
  • Sales, Customer Success and Partnerships teams in Germany and the other markets.
  • Security, Product, AI and Finance teams on cross-functional files.

Profile

  • German law degree. Second State Examination (Volljurist) preferred.
  • 4+ years of experience in commercial law, ideally including in-house experience in a SaaS, tech or fintech company.
  • Solid experience negotiating B2B contracts directly with counterparties.
  • Exposure to data protection (GDPR) and to dispute matters. Corporate experience is a plus.
  • Business generalist: you enjoy commercial work and are open to other topics.
  • Autonomy: you can handle a German negotiation from start to finish without day-to-day supervision.
  • Business sense: you know when to hold a position and when a point is not worth the deal.
  • Clarity: you explain legal risk to Sales, Customer Success and customers in plain language.
  • Structure: you work in a team with clear priorities and response times.
  • German: native or fluent.
  • English: fluent (working language of the team).

Recruitment process

  • Screening call with Talent Acquisition.
  • Interview with the VP Legal & Social Affairs (1 hour)

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
