• Serve as principal legal advisor to the C-suite and partner cross-functionally to enable fast, compliant decision-making.
• Lead and grow a team covering legal, privacy, and ESG; set clear priorities and ways of working.
• Own contract standards and complex negotiations; streamline templates and lifecycle management.

• Master of Law / Cand. Jur and 8+ years’ experience, including privacy and / or ESG exposure, ideally from in-house or a leading firm.
• Proven international scope and risk / regulatory depth (corporate law, privacy, ESG; capital markets a plus).
• Clear, business-friendly communicator who influences executives and boards; solution-oriented and pragmatic.
• People leader with experience building / scaling legal or compliance teams in growth environments; fluent in English.

The Tibber Mindset

Tibber is not your typical energy supplier. Our tech helps hundreds of thousands of households lower and shift their energy consumption to more sustainable and affordable hours. We’re here to accelerate the energy transition – not in theory, but in everyday life.

Being on a mission to change an industry, fundamentally also means being prepared for the unexpected. We do what others say can’t be done, try and fail together but never lose sight of our users. We work passionately with sustainability and a circular approach, both with our own products and in the entire ecosystem that is affected by everything we do.

Starting out with two passionate founders in 2016, we're now 300+ people working for Tibber in our offices in Stockholm, Førde, Berlin, Amsterdam, Oslo, and Helsinki. We will continue to grow within our markets, and we are thrilled to be backed by investors like Balderton Capital, Eight Roads Ventures, Founders Fund, Summa, and Schibsted.

Diversity of thought fuels better products, so we welcome applicants of every background, identity and lived experience. Ready to be part of powering the energy transition? Apply below!
