Bruxelles, Région de Bruxelles, Belgique European Payments Initiative Temps plein

Be part of a movement to change the way Europe pays

In today's digital world, payments often still feel outdated: random delays and confusing rules make it harder than it should be to pay and get paid. The European Payments Initiative (EPI) is here to change all that, forever.

With Wero, our digital wallet, we make sending and receiving money simple, seamless and secure across France, Belgium and Germany, with more countries and omnichannel solutions coming soon. Supported by 14 major banks and the two largest European acquirers, EPI is building a new, proudly European payment system: easy, instant and transparent, all for the greater good.

What's in it for you

Working on an exciting mission of EPI - empowering European financial sovereignty. Be part of a Legal team where your opinion matters, and you will immediately be able to make an impact and see results.

Your impact

  • Offer expert legal counsel on a wide range of issues, including financial regulations and corporate commercial matters
  • Ensure the company's compliance with EU financial regulations and liaise with regulators such as NBB and DNB
  • Draft, review, and negotiate contracts and agreements to support business operations and mitigate legal risks
  • Identify and assess legal risks, providing strategic advice to internal stakeholders to support decision-making processes
  • Support the General Counsel as deputy, setting team goals, managing workflows and defining legal strategy
  • Manage multiple legal projects simultaneously, ensuring timely and effective delivery
  • Work closely with the Legal team and the Risk & Compliance team to provide support and ensure overall organisational legal risk awareness
  • Innovate and strive for continuous improvement in legal processes and the overall payments landscape

For legal and compliance reasons, you will be expected to work in one of the following countries: Belgium, France, Germany, Netherlands, Spain.

If you had joined us last month, here's what you could have done

  • Supported in implementing a Regulatory Watch tool
  • Supported in setting up an organization-wide obligation register and reviewing applicable laws to address specific client queries and prepare for company awareness programs on regulatory matters

To succeed, you should meet at least 70% of these requirements

  • At least 10 years of post-qualification experience in private practice or in-house roles
  • Master's degree in law from a prestigious European university
  • Strong knowledge of EU financial regulations and experience dealing with EU regulators such as NBB and DNB, especially in our core markets
  • Corporate commercial experience within Fintech, regulated payments, or banking sectors
  • Proven track record in handling legal matters across various jurisdictions and countries
  • Comfortable handling a wide range of legal issues outside your core areas of expertise
  • Outstanding project management and organisational skills to effectively work on a variety of projects in a timely manner
  • Excellent communication, problem-solving, and relationship-building skills in an international environment to communicate complex legal issues to internal stakeholders in a simple and clear manner
  • Fluent in English (additionally, German or Dutch is appreciated)
  • Thrive in a fully remote, multicultural environment (while being willing to travel once per quarter at a minimum)

About the team

The Legal team consists of a small group of multicultural legal experts coming from diverse backgrounds. Our vision is to be a trusted business partner, who is reliable, accessible and strives for excellence. We will uphold the following values towards each other in the team, our internal clients and external clients: Ownership, Integrity, Reliability, Balance and Trust.

If this looks like you, the recruitment steps are:

  1. A first call with one of our recruiters
  2. An interview with the Hiring Manager, focused on the mission and your expertise
  3. A business case that gives you a deeper understanding of the role
  4. An interview with a colleague, focused on our company skills
  5. Hopefully, an offer you can't refuse

Turn back if …

  • You have not worked in payments before
  • You're looking for an already highly structured environment with no ambiguity

Otherwise apply
