Provident Romania
Senior Legal Advisor
Bucharest
September 3, 2024
Purpose of the Position
Your primary responsibility is to manage and resolve the company’s disputes with former clients, ensuring the protection of the company's interests at all stages of the legal process. You will also provide strategic legal advice to the Human Resources department, addressing issues related to labor relations and contributing to maintaining a compliant working environment. Additionally, you will support all company departments by ensuring compliance with applicable regulations and facilitating the implementation of business initiatives in alignment with the company's objectives. Monitoring and effectively integrating relevant legislative changes will also be essential in your role.
Role Description
At Provident, you will find a team of enthusiastic, open-minded people who are eager to help and passionate about what they do.
If you choose to become a "Providentist," you will join a diverse environment and even have virtual colleagues — meet Arya, Ema, and Jorah, the robots who have taken over and optimized several repetitive tasks in Human Resources, Finance, or Credit Risk. They haven't taken over all the responsibilities, which is why we need your expertise and knowledge.
What You Will Do:
We are proud to be part of the Provident team and to make a difference in the lives of our customers, and we want all new colleagues to feel the same way.
That's why we will ensure that we offer you opportunities to grow, innovate, and impact our customers' experience when collaborating with us!
