IN A NUTSHELL

As a growing SaaS provider in the WealthTech sector, we are accelerating our international expansion – following our location in Zurich, the next step is entering the UK market. For this exciting growth phase, we are looking for an experienced Legal Counsel who will actively shape our legal function and act as a pragmatic business partner.

Responsibilities

• You will be the central legal contact for our Sales team, supporting national and international sales processes from the first offer to contract closure.
• You will draft, review, and negotiate SaaS, software, customer, partner, and framework contracts, as well as other sales-related agreements.
• You will develop an efficient sales legal support with clear processes, contract standards, playbooks, templates, and practical self-service solutions.
• You will provide solution-oriented advice to Sales and Management on commercial and legal risks, helping to drive contract closures efficiently.
• You will support our international expansion, particularly the market entry and further business development in the UK.
• Beyond the sales focus, you will gradually support other business law topics, such as procurement, partnerships, data protection, compliance, and corporate housekeeping.
• You will work closely with Product, Finance, and Management, and manage external law firms as needed.
• Together with our General Counsel, you will shape the further development of the legal function and governance structures.
• From the start, you will take on independent responsibility and continuously develop your area of responsibility according to your experience and professional interests.
• You will evaluate and implement modern legal tech, contract automation, and AI solutions to set up legal work efficiently and scalably.

Requirements

• You are a qualified lawyer (m/w/d) with ideally five years of relevant professional experience, preferably in an international company, a SaaS or software company, or a business consulting firm.
• You have solid experience in commercial law and in drafting and negotiating complex B2B contracts, preferably in the SaaS, software, or technology sector.
• You understand the dynamics of sales-related contract negotiations and see yourself as a solution-oriented partner who appropriately mitigates legal risks without losing sight of the business closure.
• You have experience in setting up and continuously developing legal-sales processes, contract standards, playbooks, or similar structures.
• You do not want to limit yourself exclusively to sales contracts but want to take on responsibility for further legal and strategic topics.
• You value professional exchange with an experienced General Counsel but also want to independently shape and drive your topics.
• You bring initiative, a desire to shape, and the ambition to actively develop your area of responsibility and your personal role.
• Experience with international contract relationships and knowledge of the UK or common law environment is advantageous.
• You think entrepreneurially, work independently and pragmatically, and can convey complex legal issues understandably and action-oriented.
• You are interested in legal tech, contract automation, and AI-assisted working methods.
• You have fluent German and English language skills.

Nice to Have

• Experience in a scale-up, SaaS, FinTech, or WealthTech company
• Knowledge of data protection (GDPR) and compliance
• Experience with legal tech/CLM tools (e.g., Ironclad, Juro, DocuSign CLM) and AI-assisted contract review

We Offer

• A lot of personal responsibility and direct influence on international expansion
• Building a scalable legal function in a growing company
• Collaboration with leadership, sales, product, and international teams
• Modern tech environment and openness to efficient legal workflows
