🚀 Be part of a movement to change the way Europe pays

In today’s digital world, payments often still feel outdated: random delays and confusing rules make it harder than it should be to pay and get paid. The European Payments Initiative (EPI) is here to change all that, forever.

With Wero, our digital wallet, we make sending and receiving money simple, seamless and secure across France, Belgium and Germany, with more countries and omnichannel solutions coming soon. Supported by 16 major banks and the two largest European acquirers, EPI is building a new, proudly European payment system: easy, instant and transparent, all for the greater good.


🔎 What's in it for you

Working on an exciting mission of EPI - empowering European financial sovereignty. Be part of a Legal team where your opinion matters, and you will immediately be able to make an impact and see results.

At EPI, we embrace a remote-first culture, enabling our teams to work remotely from the country they are based in, with in-person meetings at least once a quarter to foster collaboration and connection.


🐝 About the team

The Legal team consists of a small group of multicultural legal experts coming from diverse backgrounds. Our vision is to be a trusted business partner, who is reliable, accessible and strives for excellence. We will uphold the following values towards each other in the team, our internal clients and external clients: Ownership, Integrity, Reliability, Balance and Trust.


💥 Your impact

  • Offer legal advice on a wide range of issues in several markets.

  • Draft, review, and negotiate contracts and agreements and support business operations.

  • Participate to multiple legal projects simultaneously, ensuring timely and effective delivery.

  • Work closely with the Legal team and other departments to ensure delivery of the EPI Roadmap.

  • Innovate and strive for continuous improvement in legal processes and the overall payments landscape


🕵🏻‍♀️ To succeed, you should meet at least 70% of these requirements

  • 2 to 3 years experience private practice or in-house legal roles, ideally in an international environment

  • Master's degree in Law from a European university

  • Fluent in English (C1 level minimum); any additional EU language is appreciated

  • Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple projects under tight deadlines

  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, able to explain complex legal issues in a clear and simple manner to non-legal stakeholders

  • A first experience in a regulated environment such as payments or financial services would be a plus

  • Share our values and thrive in a remote-first, multicultural environment


🪜 If this looks like you, the recruitment steps are:

  1. A first call with one of our recruiters

  2. An interview focused on the mission and your expertise

  3. An interview focused on our company skills

  4. Hopefully, an offer you can’t refuse


⛔ Turn back if …

  • You prefer working on a single, narrow legal topic. Here you'll need to be versatile and jump across contract law, regulatory matters and legal projects

  • You're not comfortable working autonomously in a remote-first, multicultural setup with evolving priorities



Otherwise apply!
