Legal counsel in GDPR team

Imagine a future where you’re part of an in-house legal team responsible for our global GDPR compliance program

Join us in this role where you’ll advise on all aspects of GDPR compliance globally, working closely with colleagues in the legal team and GDPR compliance colleagues in IT and HR.

Welcome to Legal
You’ll be part of Corporate Governance & GDPR where you, together with your colleagues, will work with all aspects of data protection issues across our footprint such as day-to-day legal advice to the business, drafting of policies, procedures and guidelines, and monitoring of implemented compliance measures. As a team, we’re ambitious and have a collaborative approach where your ideas and input will be valued and where you at the same time will experience a high level of individual empowerment.

You’ll play an important role in:

  • performing legal assessments
  • drafting and updating GDPR-related policies and guidelines
  • maintaining our GDPR documentation
  • handling other compliance tasks (data subject requests and data breaches).

To succeed in the role, you:

  • have a legal background (master of law/master of commercial law)
  • have minimum two years experience working with GDPR
  • are fluent in Danish and English
  • are analytical and detail-oriented
  • have a strong moral compass.

Maybe you’ve read the above and can see you have some transferable skills, even though they don’t quite match all the points. If you think you can bring something to the team, we still encourage you to apply.
