Description

About the role

You will build the Micromobility Legal function from scratch, designing the strategy, hiring the team, and delivering hands-on across contracts, regulatory affairs, financing, and corporate governance. This role supports a multi-jurisdiction business and sits at the centre of regulation, financing, and market expansion, working directly with the CEO and leadership team on the company’s most critical decisions. You’ll define what to build in-house versus outsource, manage external counsel efficiently, and scale a lean, high-impact legal team over time. This is a role for someone who is as comfortable drafting a supplier contract as they are leading a debt financing workstream with lenders.

Main tasks and responsibilities:

Build and scale a lean, high-impact Legal function, defining what to build in-house versus outsource, managing external counsel efficiently, and hiring a high-performing team over time.
Draft and negotiate commercial contracts (partnerships, suppliers, cities), building scalable templates and processes that enable speed while managing real risks.
Lead legal workstreams for debt financing (including asset-backed structures), equity raises, and investor negotiations, managing security packages, covenants, and lender requirements.
Own the legal regulatory strategy across markets — city tenders, permits, and licensing — partnering with operations and public policy to win and retain markets.
Provide pragmatic, business-oriented legal guidance to the leadership team, anticipating and navigating fragmented, evolving regulatory environments across Europe.

About you:

You have strong in-house legal leadership experience, ideally complemented by a top-tier law firm background.
You have a builder-operator mindset — comfortable starting from zero, building structure in ambiguity, and rolling up your sleeves to execute directly.
You have strong commercial judgement, understanding business trade-offs beyond legal theory and enabling decisions rather than blocking them.
You have experience in regulated industries (mobility, transport, energy, fintech, telecom, or similar) or multi-country operations in Europe.
You have transactional strength — confident leading financing and structuring discussions and engaging directly with lenders, investors, and senior stakeholders.
You have sharp regulatory instincts, understanding how regulators and cities think and can operate in fragmented, evolving regulatory environments.
You have a cost-disciplined approach, knowing how to use external counsel without overspending and building lean, efficient processes.
