Bogota, Colombia Sezzle A tiempo completo

**Director, Legal and Compliance**

**Location: Bogota, Colombia**

**Department: Legal**

**About Sezzle**:
Sezzle is a cutting-edge fintech company dedicated to financially empowering the next generation. With only one in three millennials owning a credit card and the majority lacking their desired credit scores, Sezzle addresses these challenges through a payment platform that offers interest-free installment plans at online stores. By increasing consumers' purchasing power, Sezzle drives sales and basket sizes for thousands of eCommerce merchants that it partners with.

**About the Role**:
As a Director in our legal department, you will play a crucial role in ensuring the efficient and accurate processing of liens related to our company's legal obligations. You will work closely with legal professionals and other team members to manage the lien process from start to finish, contributing to the legal compliance and financial stability of the organization.

We are seeking a talented and motivated director who is best in class with a high IQ plus a high EQ. This role presents an exciting opportunity to thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced environment within a rapidly growing team, with abundant prospects for career advancement.

**What You'll Do**:

- Give accurate and timely counsel to executives in a wide variety of legal topics (labor law, partnerships, international ventures, corporate finance etc.)
- Collaborate with management to devise efficient legal and defense strategies
- Specify internal governance policies and regularly monitor compliance
- Research and evaluate different risk factors regarding business decisions and operations
- Communicate and negotiate with external parties (regulators, external counsel, public authority etc.)and create relations of trust
- Draft and solidify agreements, contracts and other legal documents to ensure appropriate representation of the company's full legal rights
- Deal with complex matters with multiple stakeholders and interests
- Provide clarification on legal language or specifications to everyone in the organization
- Conduct your work with integrity and responsibility
- Obtain and/or maintain knowledge of significant FinTech legislative developments on United States, Canada and Colombia federal and state/provincial basis

**What We Look For**:

- Proven experience as a Multi-Country FinTech Counsel and especially in transactional work, which will comprise 50%+ of work responsibility
- Minimum 5-10 years of experience in a FinTech/Lender business environment
- Excellent knowledge and understanding of corporate law and procedures
- Attention to Detail: Ability to meticulously review and analyze legal documents for accuracy and compliance.
- Full comprehension of the influences of the external environment on a corporation
- Demonstrated ability to create legal defensive or proactive strategies
- High degree of professional ethics and integrity
- Sound judgment and ability to analyze situations and information
- Outstanding communication skills
- US based education (i.e. LLM) and/or registered as an US attorney is a significant advantage

**About You**:

- **You have relentlessly high standards** - many people may think your standards are unreasonably high. You are continually raising the bar and driving those around you to deliver great results. You make sure that defects do not get sent down the line and that problems are fixed so they stay fixed.
- **You're not bound by convention** - your success—and much of the fun—lies in developing new ways to do things
- **You need action** - speed matters in business. Many decisions and actions are reversible and do not need extensive study. We value calculated risk-taking.
- **You earn trust** - you listen attentively, speak candidly, and treat others respectfully.
- **You have backbone; disagree, then commit**:

- you can respectfully challenge decisions when you disagree, even when doing so is uncomfortable or exhausting. You have conviction and are tenacious. You do not compromise for the sake of social cohesion. Once a decision is determined, you commit wholly.
- **You deliver results**:

- you focus on the key inputs and deliver them with the right quality and in a timely fashion. Despite setbacks, you rise to the occasion and never settle.

**What Makes Working at Sezzle Awesome**:
At Sezzle, we are more than just brilliant engineers, passionate data enthusiasts, out-of-the-box thinkers, and determined innovators. We believe in surrounding ourselves with only the best and the brightest individuals. Our culture is not defined by a certain set of perks designed to give the illusion of the traditional startup culture, but rather, it is the visible example living in every employee that we hire. Sezzle recognizes and values the importance of diversity and inclusion in enriching the employment experience of its employees and in supporting our mission.
