Driven by the passion to improve quality of people's lives, WS Audiology continues to grow as a market leader in the hearing aid industry. With our commitment to increase penetration in an underserved hearing care market, we want to accelerate our business transformation in order to reach more people, more effectively.

We are seeking a new team member for the position of Privacy & Legal Counsel, EMEA. You will be based in Lynge, Denmark and will join a dynamic and motivated multicultural team of 25 lawyers on a global scale. You will report directly to the Head of Global Privacy.

As we continue to establish our future privacy function, you will have the opportunity to shape various processes and influence the structure of the privacy function as it evolves.

What you will do
  • Provide guidance to the business on GDPR-related issues, including but not limited to: (a) advising marketing teams on legal matters concerning marketing, advertising, and tracking technologies; and (b) assessing and advising on privacy risks linked to new solutions, systems, and technologies, as well as regarding cross-border transfers of personal data. This includes drafting and reviewing consents, privacy notices, and similar documents.
  • Collaborate and engage with relevant stakeholders across EMEA to gather information and understand current business processes, including interactions with pertinent IT systems.
  • Assist the EMEA Privacy team in creating and implementing data privacy policies, procedures, guidelines, and best practices for the EMEA region, including training initiatives.
  • Support data breach notifications, manage data incidents, investigate privacy-related complaints, conduct audits and assessments, and monitor and report on risks.
  • Aid business teams and other legal colleagues with legal and privacy concerns during contract drafting and negotiations with customers, business partners, and vendors. This encompasses software license agreements, data processing agreements, data transfer agreements, and support during M&A and divestments within EMEA.
  • Coordinate with WSA Privacy team members in APAC and LATAM on global privacy matters.
What you bring

Experience

  • A Law Degree or equivalent qualifications is required.
  • You should have a minimum of 4 years of experience, ideally with a background in both private practice and in-house roles, including 2 to 3 years specifically focused on managing privacy-related issues.
  • Possessing internationally recognized data privacy certifications (such as IAPP CIPP/A, CIPP/E, CIPM, CIPT) would be a plus.
  • You should be a team player with excellent collaborative and interpersonal skills, capable of communicating effectively and sharing knowledge, along with a strong desire to learn.
  • The ability to work across various functions—such as Sales, Marketing, R&D, IT, HR, and Procurement—and manage projects with cross-border teams while adapting to change is essential.

Personal competencies

  • Skilled at establishing and maintaining strong relationships at various levels both within the organization and externally.
  • You are self-driven and proactive, capable of working independently and implementing changes across the organization.
  • You thrive under pressure and can handle multiple tasks in a fast-paced corporate setting.
  • You are a forward-thinking team player with a flexible approach to work assignments and a willingness to learn new things.
