Do you want to work in one of the leading and largest corporates in the Nordics?

We are looking for a talented Senior Legal Counsel to join our Group Corporate Legal team in Copenhagen. This is an opportunity for you to work in a team of highly skilled lawyers serving senior functions in the Nordea Group with corporate legal- and regulatory advice, with particular focus on Nordea Kredit Realkreditaktieselskab in Denmark.

At Nordea, we’re committed to being a partner our customers and society can count on. Compliance and integrity go hand in hand. Joining us means you’ll have an impact on how we do banking – today and tomorrow. So bring your ideas, skills and unique background. With us, you’ll be in good company with plenty of opportunities to collaborate, grow and make your mark on something bigger.

Will you help us lead the way in sustainable and ethical banking?

About this opportunity

You will join the Funding, Capital and Resolutions Legal team in Group Corporate Legal, DK, where we provide legal support in various areas including corporate law, corporate governance, capital markets law and prudential regulatory matters for the entire Nordea Group, as well as regulatory- and civil law matters specifically for the business of Nordea Kredit.

As the Senior Legal Counsel, you will be providing high quality legal services in close cooperation with other lawyers in a transforming business and challenging regulatory environment. This is a generalist role in the sense that you will provide legal support in all corporate legal aspects that are relevant to Nordea Kredit and Nordea’s branch in Denmark, but also support the overall functions of Nordea together with your colleagues in Group Corporate Legal. You will in particular work very closely with the Board, CEO and management of Nordea Kredit.

What you’ll be doing:

Act as Board Secretary and lead the Board Secretariat in Nordea Kredit

Support business areas, group functions and senior leadership teams by providing professional legal advice and guidance in relation to the various issues which arise from the day-to-day operations and business, in particular for Nordea Kredit

Assessing and advising on the applicability and implementation of the group’s internal policies and guidelines

Tracking of new regulations and markets practices applicable to the Danish branch and Nordea Kredit

Assisting in matters where Nordea Kredit is interacting with the Danish FSA and other relevant Authorities

Welcome to a legal team of highly skilled and passionate lawyers with great cross country collaboration and a unique competence base. The role is based in Copenhagen.

Who you are

Collaboration. Ownership. Passion. Courage. These are the values that guide us in being at our best – and that we imagine you share with us.

To succeed in this role, we believe that you:

Solid understanding of Danish corporate law and corporate governance relevant to financial institutions

Excellent Danish and English skills, written and spoken

High level of integrity, excellent analytical and communication skills with the ability to break down complex information in an understandable way

True team spirit, an open mind and positive attitude

Your experience and background:

Master’s law degree from a Danish university

Experience and expertise of prudential financial regulation and/or capital markets regulation is a benefit

Several years of relevant work experience, preferably from a financial institution or a law firm
