About the Opportunity

We are looking for a Legal Counsel Corporate & Regulatory to strengthen our expertise in corporate law and banking regulation.

Together with your team, you will advise internal stakeholders on a broad range of legal matters across Corporate Law, Corporate Governance, M&A, Corporate Financing and, prospectively, Capital Markets Law. Another key element of your role will be advising on banking regulatory matters.

Working closely with your team, our management and our General Counsel, you will develop pragmatic solutions across a broad range of topics. You will also work closely with external counsel and independently coordinate their work.

Your Responsibilities

  • You will join the Corporate / Regulatory Team within our Legal Department and have the exciting opportunity to further develop our Corporate Law function in a fast-growing company operating in a highly regulated environment.
  • Your work will focus on Corporate Governance (in particular, supporting the General Meeting, Supervisory Board and Management Board), Corporate Financing and M&A. You will work closely with the Head of Corporate Law and various stakeholders across the N26 Group.
  • You will identify and assess legal and business risks, develop strategies to address them and provide pragmatic and creative support in their implementation.
  • You will work closely and cross-functionally with Finance, the Executive Office and the Banking Team on matters relating to the areas of law outlined above. This will also include advising on employee participation programs.
  • You will independently support complex national and international transactions as well as our planned IPO.
  • In everything you do, you will ensure that applicable regulatory requirements are appropriately considered.

Background

What you should bring:

  • You have completed both German state law examinations (Staatsexamen) with above-average results.
  • You have at least two years of professional experience in Corporate Law, particularly German stock corporation law (Aktienrecht), gained at a renowned law firm and/or an international company, ideally in the financial sector.
  • You have gained initial experience in banking regulatory law or are motivated to develop expertise in this area.

Skills

  • You have a strong interest in technology, business and digital business models.
  • You work independently and in a highly structured manner, make decisions and are prepared to stand behind them both internally and externally.
  • You are willing to take a pragmatic approach to familiarizing yourself with new topics and areas of law and to closely follow dynamic regulatory developments.
  • You are able to communicate complex matters and legal considerations clearly and appropriately for different audiences.
  • You demonstrate a high level of integrity, commitment and initiative and are comfortable taking responsibility.

What’s In It For You

  • Accelerate your career growth by joining one of Europe’s most talked-about disruptors 🚀.
  • Employee benefits ranging from a competitive personal development budget and work-from-home budget to discounts on fitness & wellness memberships, language apps and public transportation.
  • As an N26 employee, you will have access to a Premium subscription for your personal N26 bank account, as well as subscriptions for friends and family members.
  • An additional day of annual leave for each year of service.
  • A high degree of autonomy and access to cutting-edge technologies — all while working with a friendly team of peers with diverse nationalities, life experiences and family backgrounds.
  • A relocation package with visa support for those who need it.

Who We Are

N26 has reimagined banking for today’s digital world. Technology and design empower everything we do, and this is how we are building the global banking platform the world loves to use.

We’ve eliminated physical branches, paperwork and hidden fees to create an elegant digital banking experience and help our customers save. Giving people the freedom to live and bank their way is what gets us out of bed in the morning and inspires the work we do.

We are headquartered in Berlin, with offices in multiple cities across Europe, including Vienna and Barcelona, and a team of 1,500 people representing more than 80 nationalities.

Sounds good? Apply now for this position.

We genuinely welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds, cultures, genders, sexual orientations, abilities, neurodiversities and ages. We’re committed to creating an inclusive workspace where everyone feels valued and respected, free from harassment and discrimination.

Hintergrund:

  • Du hast das erste und zweite juristische Staatsexamen mit überdurchschnittlichen Ergebnissen abgeschlossen.
  • Du konntest bereits mindestens 2 Jahre Berufserfahrung im Gesellschaftsrecht - insbesondere im Aktienrecht - in einer renommierten Kanzlei oder/und in einem internationalen Unternehmen (gerne im Finanzsektor) sammeln.
  • Du hast erste Kenntnisse im Bankaufsichtsrecht erworben bzw. bist offen, dir diese Materie engagiert zu erschließen.

Fähigkeiten:

  • Du hast ein großes Interesse an technischen und betriebswirtschaftlichen Zusammenhängen sowie digitalen Geschäftsmodellen.
  • Du arbeitest eigenständig und hoch strukturiert, triffst Entscheidungen und bist bereit, diese auch intern und extern zu vertreten.
  • Du bist bereit, dir pragmatisch auch neue Themen und Rechtsgebiete zu erschließen und dynamische regulatorische Entwicklungen eng zu begleiten.
  • Dir gelingt es, komplexe Sachverhalte und rechtliche Erwägungen adressatengerecht darzustellen.
  • Du besitzt ein hohes Level an Integrität, Einsatzbereitschaft und Eigeninitiative und scheust dich nicht vor Verantwortung.

What’s in it for you:

  • Accelerate your career growth by joining one of Europe’s most talked about disruptors 🚀.
  • Employee benefits that range from a competitive personal development budget, work from home budget, discounts to fitness & wellness memberships, language apps and public transportation.
