Providing practical and solution-oriented support to teams across Veo on data regulation matters, with a focus on translating legal requirements into operational processes.
Drafting, updating, and maintaining relevant policies, procedures, and documentation, including privacy notices, records of processing activities, transfer impact assessments, incident response procedures, and documentation required under the regulatory frameworks.
Supporting the handling of operational compliance tasks, including data subject rights requests, personal data breaches, and security incidents, as well as a broad palette of ad hoc questions.
Assisting with conducting and maintaining risk and impact assessments.
Contributing to drafting and facilitating training and awareness initiatives.
Supporting the management of third-party relationships from a compliance perspective, including assisting with due diligence, contractual requirements, and ongoing monitoring.
Contributing to the ongoing monitoring, development, optimization, and, where relevant, automation of compliance processes, ensuring that Veo’s approach remains scalable and aligned with business needs.
Graduate with a master’s degree in law, business law, or a related field from one of the Nordic countries.
2-4 years of experience working with GDPR and/or data regulation, either in-house or in a consultancy/law firm setting.
An interest in and basic understanding of broader technology regulation (e.g. NIS2, AI Act, Data Act), with a willingness to develop within these areas.
A pragmatic and structured approach to problem-solving with the ability to translate legal requirements into commercial and operational solutions.
An interest in working closely with stakeholders across different functions and with varying professional backgrounds.
A solid understanding of and interest in technology and artificial intelligence.
The ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities in a dynamic environment.
Strong communication skills in English, both written and spoken.
At Veo, the Legal & Compliance Team is part of the Finance Department, and you will report to the Head of Legal. In your day-to-day work, you will collaborate closely with our experienced Data Protection Counsel. We offer an informal working environment where individual contributions are highly valued, both professionally and socially. We encourage personal and professional development while providing a flexible work environment, even during busy periods.
