Legal Counsel / Senior Legal Counsel

Make a difference with us and become part of the foundation for the green energy transition offshore

Join us and become part of CS Wind, the world’s largest tower producer, with 9 production sites and more than 5,000 employees globally. At CS WIND Offshore we support CS Wind’s vision of becoming the world’s leading company for renewable energy - and from our production sites in Denmark, we manufacture foundations for offshore wind farms worldwide.

The ambitions for offshore wind are great, and we must grow so that we can deliver our part of the puzzle and make this a reality. It requires a team effort. Therefore, we are looking for a new colleague who, like us, is passionate about making a difference.

Specifically, we are looking for individuals who are motivated by a role focused on ensuring compliance with applicable legislation, internal guidelines, and company policies.
The two main priorities of the position are:

• Supplier contract management (approximately 80–90%)
• Regulatory compliance (approximately 10–20%), depending on workload and availability

What do we offer?
You will get an exciting and versatile job in a growing international company with a flat structure. We offer flexibility, a high degree of freedom under responsibility and you will have ample opportunity for personal and professional development as part of a professional team with an informal tone.

An attractive salary and employment conditions are negotiated individually, based on experience and qualifications. We also offer canteen schemes, pension schemes, an active staff association, gym access, health insurance and various other staff benefits. Workplace will preferably be our location in Aalborg, with the opportunity to occasionally work from home.

We build a green future together with someone who can:

• Draft, review and negotiate various contracts with suppliers involved in large scale international projects. These contracts are based on international construction standards (e.g. FIDIC-based contracts) and involve both domestic and international suppliers
• Ensure regulatory compliance and have experience implementing compliance frameworks from start to finish
• Maintain and oversee parts of the company’s existing Compliance Program, aiming to minimize manual processes by applying technological and automated solutions where possible
• Participate in and actively support contract negotiations both in Denmark and abroad
• Provide legal advice and handle ad hoc tasks related to commercial and legal matters

As part of the team, we imagine that you:

• Have a relevant legal background, either Cand.jur., LL.M. or Cand.merc.jur.
• Possess a strong track record of simultaneously drafting and negotiating multiple supplier contracts while managing customer requirements and commercial considerations
• May have experience with international construction contracts (such as e.g. FIDIC), which would be an advantage when working with our agreements
• Take a pragmatic yet detail-oriented approach, which is necessary for maintaining full back-to-back alignment throughout the supplier engagement phases of our projects.
• Are business-oriented and know how to balance commercial considerations with legal and regulatory requirements
• Have experience in training and supporting employees in compliance awareness and implementation while maintaining a holistic overview of the entire Compliance Program
• Have a project management and a strong self-starter mindset
• May have relevant industry knowledge, although it is not a requirement
• Are flexible and motivated by both independent work and collaboration with others
• Can work under tight deadlines and are fluent in English, both spoken and written

Value-based collaboration

We want a workplace that focuses on the whole person, and we collaborate across CS WIND Offshore based on a set of values that guide our behavior; Growth mindset, Speed, Globality and Communication & Cooperation. Safety always comes first and is expressed through the term "We Care".

We believe that this, together with our mission to provide renewable energy for the world, helps make CS WIND Offshore a great place to work.

We process applications on an ongoing basis and will end the recruitment process once we find the right candidate for the position. We look forward to hearing from you.
