This role offers strong opportunities to grow professionally and broaden your legal and compliance expertise as BioArctic continues to develop.

Your responsibilities

As Legal Counsel, you will draft and review agreements, support negotiations and provide business-oriented advice on pragmatic, risk-based ways forward, primarily in contract law and other relevant areas of commercial law. You will also help develop and implement the company’s compliance framework, support the business in applying relevant requirements and contribute to general compliance follow-up. In addition, you will deliver training, improve legal processes and ways of working, and contribute to the management of legal and compliance-related risks.

· You have at least three years of legal experience gained at a company, law firm, or other comparable organization.

· You have experience drafting and reviewing agreements, supporting negotiations and providing legal advice directly to the business. You are comfortable taking responsibility for matters independently, while recognizing when alignment or specialist support is needed.

· Structured and systematic, with the ability to prioritize and manage several matters in parallel.

· A clear and engaging communicator, able to build understanding and support and make an impact on legal and compliance-related matters.

· Collaborative and responsive, with the ability to build trusted relationships and work effectively with colleagues throughout the organization.
