Job description

About The Role:

  • Enfuce is a European issuer processor and regulated EMI working with banks, fintechs, financial institutions and enterprise customers across Europe. We operate in a sophisticated regulatory environment and support complex, high-value commercial arrangements.

  • We are looking for a commercial lawyer with strong financial services exposure to join our legal team.

  • This is not a narrow advisory role. You will be embedded in the business, leading negotiations, shaping deal structures and helping drive growth while ensuring risk remains within the company’s defined risk appetite.

  • If you are all about applying your technical expertise in a pragmatic, commercially focused in-house environment, this role is designed for you.

What You'll Be Doing:

Lead Commercial Contracting:

  • You will take ownership of complex customer, vendor and partner agreements, including:

  • Card-as-a-Service and processing agreements.

  • Outsourcing and services arrangements in a regulated financial services context.

  • Vendor and technology contracts.

  • Partnership and collaboration agreements.

  • NDAs and ancillary documentation.

You will:

  •  Lead and run commercial negotiations alongside Sales and senior stakeholders.

  • Advise on risk allocation (liability, indemnities, SLAs, audit rights, subcontracting, termination and exit structures)

  • Support RFP processes and strategic deal structuring.

  • Manage amendments, change requests and contract lifecycle matters.

  • You will regularly negotiate with sophisticated counterparties, including Tier 1 banks, regulated institutions and established fintechs.

Operate in a Regulated Environment:

  • You will work within a financial services framework and advise on the contractual implications of outsourcing in a regulated environment.

  • Support interpretation of legal and regulatory requirements as they impact commercial arrangements.

  • Work closely with Risk & Compliance, including support on regulatory filings and supervisory matters where relevant.

  • Deep prior payments or e-money expertise is not required, but financial services exposure is essential.

Contribute to Legal Function Development:

  • Develop and refine contract templates and negotiation playbooks.

  • Improve contract lifecycle processes and internal knowledge sharing.

  • Act as a trusted internal adviser across departments.

  • Contribute to building a scalable, high-performing legal function aligned with business objectives.

  • This is a role for someone who wants to shape how legal operates, not simply execute tasks.

Why You’ll Love Working At Enfuce:

  • High autonomy & ownership: We give you the freedom to own your work and trust you to make the best decisions for your projects.

  • Top-tier talent: Join a team of industry experts and highly skilled professionals who are as passionate as you are about innovation.

Benefits & Perks:

Fair pay and employee stock option:

Flexible Paid Time Off:

  • We offer a flexible paid time off policy, providing up to 5 weeks of annual vacation days and paid family leave (subject to country regulations). Additionally, you can benefit from hybrid or remote work options, promoting a healthy work-life balance.
