Lassie

51-200

Germany

At Lassie, we’re redefining what pet insurance means. Our mission goes beyond protection—we empower pet owners to prevent illness and strengthen the bond between them and their pets. With operations across several European markets, Lassie is growing rapidly—and with that growth comes an even greater responsibility to protect our customers in the best possible way. Germany is one of our key markets, and its highly regulated insurance landscape gives us a valuable opportunity to set a high standard for legal compliance and customer protection. By strengthening our in-house legal expertise, we can proactively ensure that our insurance services are not only compliant, but also fair, transparent, and trusted by our policyholders.

## Tasks

We are looking for a high-performing, pragmatic and tech-savvy Legal Counsel to join our growing legal team. The position will be based in Berlin and report directly to our Head of Legal. You will be responsible for handling day-to-day legal work related to insurance operations in Germany, particularly supporting our Claims and Customer Service teams.

This role will also act as the main liaison for legal compliance in Germany, playing a key part in reducing external legal costs, mitigating regulatory risks, and enabling sustainable growth. You will collaborate closely with the Country Manager Germany and internal teams across the company. Occasional travel to Sweden is expected.

We operate with a hybrid work model, where employees are generally expected to be in the office three days per week. 

*   Provide legal support to the Claims and Customer Success teams for Germany
*   Handle regulatory and insurance-related legal matters, including communication with authorities such as BaFin
*   Ensure GDPR compliance and respond to data protection inquiries in accordance with German and EU laws
*   Support the Country Manager and Head of Legal on matters related to German law
*   Assist the Head of Legal in labor law matters
*   Help the company adopt legal technology and AI tools to streamline legal work and compliance processes

## Requirements

*   2–4 years of post-qualification legal experience in German insurance law
*   Solid understanding of German regulatory frameworks and administrative processes
*   Experience with GDPR and ideally with labor law
*   Comfortable working in a tech environment and exploring AI-powered legal solutions
*   Native in German and fluent in English
*   Hands-on, proactive, and able to work independently in a fast-paced environment

## Benefits

*   The opportunity to join a fast-growing company at the forefront of a booming market at an early scale-up phase
*   Shares in the company
*   A flexible, dynamic, and playful company culture, where each person has an important part in a fun-loving and supportive team
*   The joy of working with a product and brand that wow customers, and truly makes the world a better place
*   Free Urban Sports M membership
*   Fun team event (yearly offsite, after works, etc)
