You'll work alongside Charlotte https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlotte-meudic-80b23212/, our Head of Legal (Commercial & Product For French Market), to tackle diverse legal challenges in product development and emerging regulations — with direct impact on Qonto's growth and innovation across Europe. ➡️ WHAT YOU'LL DO - Draft and negotiate product contracts: Assist in negotiating and drafting contracts for new Qonto products, ensuring legal compliance for the launch of new features across payment and financial tool platforms. - Apply banking law to real products: Conduct banking law analysis and assess how regulations apply to Qonto products and features, then draft the customer contracts that bring them to market. - Navigate AI regulation: Analyze and apply emerging frameworks like the EU AI Act, ensuring Qonto's AI implementations comply with transparency, fairness, and accountability requirements. - Collaborate across teams: Work with Regulatory, Product, Strategy, and Growth to ensure legal compliance while actively supporting business objectives. - Contribute to proactive legal management: Help the team stay ahead of legal priorities rather than reacting to them. ➡️ WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - The right academic background: You hold or are completing a Master 2 in French Business Law, or you've passed the bar exam and are seeking your PPI internship. - Sector experience: You've had previous internship or work experience in tech, fintech, or banking. - Strong contract skills: You can draft and negotiate contracts with precision and a business-oriented lens. - Regulatory familiarity: You have a working knowledge of banking, payments, and data protection regulations. - French and English fluency: You communicate clearly in both languages — a third European language is a definite plus. ➡️ WHAT WE CAN OFFER YOU - Frontline fintech law: You'll work on the legal questions that sit at the intersection of product launches, financial regulation, and AI — rarely available at this level. - Real cross-functional exposure: You'll collaborate directly with Product, Strategy, Regulatory, and Growth — not just the legal team. - AI regulatory experience before it's mainstream: The EU AI Act is new territory for everyone; you'll build expertise in it from the inside. - A lean, high-trust team: With 7 legal professionals covering all of Europe, your contributions will be visible and impactful from day one. ➡️ YOUR FUTURE MANAGER You'll work directly with Charlotte https://www.linkedin.com/in/charlotte-meudic-80b23212/, our Head of Legal (Commercial & Product For French Market), and the team.
