Description du poste

Would you be the next Legal Counsel at Qvantel?

At Qvantel, we help Communications Service Providers (CSPs) grow, transform and operate more efficiently through our BSS and Charging software, managed services and industry expertise.

Founded in Finland, Qvantel has grown into an international technology company with operations across APAC, the Americas, Europe and MEA. We support leading telecom operators around the world as they simplify their businesses, improve customer experiences and expand beyond traditional connectivity.

We are now looking for a Legal Counsel to join our team in Helsinki, Finland.

This is a broad and versatile legal role within an international technology environment, offering the opportunity to work closely with business leaders and stakeholders across Qvantel’s global organisation. You will gain exposure to a wide range of corporate and commercial legal matters, support a multinational group structure and contribute to the continued development of Qvantel’s legal function.

Qvantel enables CSPs to grow and reach new levels of business efficiency. Our customers are the world’s leading digital service providers who are working with Qvantel to grow their businesses ‘beyond connectivity’ and re-write the rule book for the telecoms industry. From our origins in Finland, we have grown to become a global company. We provide BSS and Charging software and related services, such as managed services to our CSP customers in APAC, the Americas, Europe and MEA regions and have operations in over 30 countries. We provide software, services, support and expertise to our 70+ CSP customers in more than 40 countries.

What does the role look like in practice, and what kind of legal matters will you work with?

As Legal Counsel, you will support Qvantel across a variety of legal and corporate matters. Your responsibilities will include advising the business, supporting corporate governance and working closely with Group F&C and other internal stakeholders to ensure that legal considerations are effectively incorporated into business decisions. Your primary focus will be on corporate legal matters relating to Qvantel Oy and its subsidiaries, particularly corporate governance, compliance and corporate law. In parallel, you will also have the opportunity to support the management, sales, regions and other organisation with other legal matters as needed.

You will collaborate with stakeholders across different business functions, giving you a broad view of the business and its legal and compliance needs. The role offers a unique opportunity to develop a well-rounded understanding of an international technology company operating globally across multiple regions and markets, as well as to grow into a role with increasing responsibility and more influential role within Qvantel’s legal function.

If you enjoy combining legal expertise with a practical, business-oriented mindset and want to work in a truly international technology company, this could be the next step in your career.

What are we looking for?

You have a law degree and a genuine interest in developing your career in an in-house legal role. We expect you to have at least one year of experience in corporate and/or business law and preferably some previous experience working with a company’s legal matters. Experience from an international technology company is an advantage but not essential. You are ready to take ownership of your work, collaborate closely with Group F&C, tax and other business functions, and provide practical legal support. For us, attitude and mindset matter just as much as experience. We value a “yes we can” attitude, sound judgement, a willingness to learn and a pragmatic approach.

We hope that you have

• A law degree and at least one year of experience in corporate and/or business law
• Experience working as an in-house legal counsel
• Fluency in using various AI tools, such as Claude or Copilot
• Excellent written and spoken English and Finnish skills
• A proactive and practical approach to legal matters, strong collaboration skills, and an interest in working in an international business environment
• Willingness to travel from time to time

It would be a plus if you also have

• Experience working in an international business environment
• Experience in the software, technology, or export-driven industries

What do we offer?

You will take on a broad range of responsibilities, work closely with different stakeholders, both internally and externally, and have plenty of room to grow your role and build your career within a global organisation.

• A broad and hands-on business corporate legal role with real responsibility
• Close collaboration with teams across the business and exposure to an international group structure and Qvantel’s global operations
• Opportunities to develop your expertise and take on increasing responsibility over time
• After initial onboarding requiring daily presence, a hybrid working model with approximately three office days per week at our Kalasatama office in Helsinki
• A competitive salary based on your background and experience

Could this be your next career step?
