About the Role:

We are looking for a proactive Legal Associate to join our Legal and Compliance team.

You will bridge the gap between cutting-edge technology (crypto, stablecoins, payments) and robust corporate governance across multiple jurisdictions.

Key Responsibilities

  • Contracts: Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements. You will build and maintain internal tools like clause libraries, playbooks, and legal guidance materials to help our teams move fast and safely.
  • Research & Advisory: Conduct deep-dive legal research on emerging developments in virtual assets, blockchain, payments, and global financial services. You will translate complex laws into clear, actionable compliance notes and address cross-functional team escalations.
  • Cross-Border Licensing: Support entity registration, regulatory approvals, permit management, and corporate secretarial functions across all our operating jurisdictions.
  • Disputes & Stakeholder Management: Support the management of regulatory inquiries, investigations, disputes, and litigation. You will act as a key liaison with external counsel, regulators, auditors, and key service providers.

Requirements

  • Experience: 2-5 years of post-qualification legal experience within a fintech, fast-growing tech startup, or a top-tier commercial law firm's technology/finance practice.
  • Mindset: A strong commercial enabler philosophy. You are a problem-solver who figures out how the business can innovate safely.
  • Regulatory Knowledge: Strong foundational knowledge of corporate law, commercial contracting, payments infrastructure, and emerging digital asset/VASP frameworks.
  • Tech Forward: Digitally native, highly organised, and eager to adopt legal tech and automation to optimize workflow delivery

Nice to Have

  • High attention to detail — zero-error mindset.
  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to manage multiple deadlines across jurisdictions.
  • Excellent communication skills.
  • Integrity, confidentiality, and high professional ethics.

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.
