About this role

Bvnk is seeking a Legal Counsel to provide strategic legal advice across various teams, focusing on payments and financial services law. Join a diverse team dedicated to transforming financial services with stablecoins.

Description

About us: We believe the next generation of financial services will be powered by stablecoins. Founded in 2021, our mission at BVNK is to accelerate global money movement. We’re building stablecoin-native infrastructure so businesses can move value instantly across borders and networks. With global licenses and T1 bank partnerships, we facilitate billions in transactions for enterprise clients like Worldpay, Deel, LianLian Global, and Rapyd. Our technology is transforming how businesses operate globally by eliminating payment delays, reducing costs, and unlocking trapped capital. We’re a diverse team spread across EMEA, North America, and APAC, with a shared belief that stablecoins are the new infrastructure layer for financial services, and that BVNK is at the forefront of this shift. In 2025, we secured strategic investment from Visa, following our $50 million Series B with Haun Ventures, Coinbase Ventures, Scribble Ventures, DRW Venture Capital, Avenir, and Tiger Global. With the backing of these leading investors, we’re accelerating our growth – and we're looking for smart, ambitious people to help us build the future of financial services. We're incredibly honored to have made Newsweek's list of The Top 100 Global Most Loved Workplaces three years running (most recently in 2025) and to have been recognised by LinkedIn as one of the Top 20 Startups in the UK in 2024!

Responsibilities

Key Areas of Responsibilities:

  • Partner closely with all global teams (e.g. compliance, finance, and product) across BVNK, including UK, EU, South Africa, Singapore and San Francisco, to advise on a range of issues including financial services requirements, payments, outsourcing, data privacy, intellectual property, employment laws, BAU financial crime matters, disputes and litigation and corporate governance.
  • Assist in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating a variety of commercial agreements, including service contracts, outsourcing agreements, SaaS agreements, and other documentation involving complex transactions.
  • Reviewing of marketing materials to ensure they are accurate, compliant with legal and regulatory standards, protect intellectual property, include necessary disclosures, mitigate risks, and align with company policies.
  • Assess and advise on legal risks, propose innovative and effective legal solutions to problems, ability to constructively challenge business decisions from a legal perspective.
  • Work closely with other members of the Legal Team to support BVNK’s global BAU activities and legal operations function.
  • Work closely with the General Counsel to manage the legal function, assist on any future M&A activity and funding activities, and to help build scalable and effective processes for general legal activities and for the review and launch of new products and services.
  • Conduct legal research and stay up-to-date on applicable laws and regulations dealing with cryptocurrency, payments, and other relevant areas, anticipating legal and commercial risks and advising and assisting the business to prepare for them.
  • Good understanding of cryptocurrency and fintech legal frameworks, or a strong interest in learning about cryptocurrency and blockchain technology.
Requirements

What we need from you:

  • You’ll have 3+ years of experience as a qualified lawyer in an in-house legal team, top law firm and/or government agency.
  • You’ll have familiarity with UK and/or EU payments and financial services laws and regulations (such as the Payment Services Regulation or the Second Payment Services Directive).
  • You’ll have strong and extensive experience in negotiating and drafting agreements with customers, partners and suppliers, including payment services related agreements.
  • You’ll have experience in intra-group matters such as intra-group outsourcing and advising on corporate law matters. Experience with corporate governance, employment matters and disputes and litigation is ideal but not mandatory.
  • You’re highly collaborative, inquisitive, and solutions-oriented, ideally with prior experience advising on product development at fast-moving technology companies.
  • You’re biased towards action and impact, and no task is too big or too small for you; you can roll up your sleeves and get things done.
  • You have exceptional verbal and interpersonal communication skills, can build strong relationships with colleagues and stakeholders, and can simplify legal concepts and communicate them in easy-to-understand language.
  • You exhibit genuine curiosity, are passionate about your work, and enjoy a fast-paced working environment.
  • You’re humble with low-ego, have a strong desire to grow and learn, and have a deep commitment to your teammates.

What you can expect from us:

  • Fair and competitive salary at every stage of your growth
  • Meaningful ownership in the business through our employee option scheme
  • Flexible working hours, with hybrid working at its heart
  • A culture built on passionate, growth-minded people
