Head of Legal, Lysa Fonder AB

Lysa Fonder AB

Lysa’s vision is to set a new standard in savings through automation, efficiency and and unwavering dedication to our customers' best interests. We believe that many institutions work against their customers and we see a significant opportunity to establish a new financial champion.

We are on a mission to make it simpler for people to save smarter. To achieve this, we need to continuously develop our product and expand into new markets. We have an outstanding team, but to further accelerate growth, we need more talented colleagues. We are currently seeking a Head of Legal to our Fund Company, Lysa Fonder.

The opportunity

As Head of Legal at Lysa’s fund company, you will oversee all legal matters within the fund company. Given our small company size, your role will encompass a variety of legal areas with a strong focus on regulatory and fund-related issues.

You will work closely with the CEO, investment managers, and developers in the fund company. You will ensure that regulatory aspects are integral to product development and ongoing business operations, continually enhancing our group’s strong culture of regulatory compliance. Additionally, you will collaborate closely with the Board of Directors, compliance, and risk functions.

You will be a part of our strong legal team within the Lysa group, which includes five lawyers across Fund, Securities Operations and Life Insurance. You will report to Lysa’s General Counsel.

Key responsibilities

  • Develop new fund rules and other legal frameworks when launching new funds and related products.
  • Collaborate closely with lawyers in Lysa’s insurance and securities companies on changes in investment offerings and the implementation of new regulations affecting the entire Lysa group.
  • Prepare board materials, communicate with the board, and participate in board meetings.
  • Ensure robust risk management in conjunction with the fund team, risk, and compliance functions.
  • Manage dialogue and revisions with compliance, risk, and internal audit functions.
  • Engage in dialogue and collaboration with depositary, custodian and other partners.
  • Oversee internal governance documents.
  • Monitor and implement new regulations related to fund operations.

What we are looking for

We believe you share our values at Lysa and that you are eager to join us on our journey to become European champions in savings, investments and pensions. You thrive in a fast pace digital environment where everything is evolving and enjoy the challenge of using your legal and regulatory knowledge to help create products our customers love.

Qualifications

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills, structured and effective in execution.
  • Thrive in a high-influence, high-responsibility environment.
  • Solution-oriented with strong commercial understanding and integrity.
  • Passionate about your job with extensive experience in fund law.
  • Ideally, several years of experience in regulatory fund-related matters, possibly as a fund lawyer, compliance officer at a fund company, or at the SFSA, or focusing on fund-related matters at a well-renowned law firm.
  • Experience in another regulated industry, FinTech, or a genuine interest in personal finance and savings is a plus.
  • Strong ambition, curiosity, and willingness to learn are valued higher than many years of experience.
  • Enthusiastic about actively participating in the operational aspects of the business.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills, capable of explaining complex legal issues simply.
  • Unpretentious, ambitious, and responsible team player.
