These platforms play a critical role in enabling data privacy compliance, contract lifecycle management, third party risk management, and secure legal collaboration.

You will act as the bridge between Legal, Compliance, and IT, ensuring that legal requirements are correctly translated into stable, secure, and scalable IT services. While you are not expected to be a practicing lawyer, you must have a strong understanding of legal and regulatory requirements and the ability to challenge, clarify, and support Legal stakeholders from a service and technology perspective.

Key Responsibilities

• Ensure the availability, stability, security, and compliance of the services
• Act as the primary IT partner for DSV Legal, ensuring their requirements are understood and supported
• Translate legal, regulatory, and compliance requirements into service roadmaps, system configurations, and enhancements
• Drive incident, problem, and root cause management, including escalations
• Own change, release, and lifecycle management, ensuring minimal business risk
• Maintain service documentation, architecture overviews, and CMDB accuracy
• Manage vendors, contracts, SLAs, and service costs
• Ensure integrations and data flows meet legal, security, and compliance standards
• Identify automation and improvement opportunities to increase efficiency and control
• Contribute to the continuous improvement of IT service governance and operational maturity

What You Bring

Professional Experience

• Proven experience as a Service Owner, Application Manager, or similar role in an enterprise IT environment
• Strong understanding of IT service management (ITIL) and operational governance
• Experience working with legal, compliance, risk, or governance-related platforms, such as:
  • Data Privacy & Consent Management
  • Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM)
  • Third Party Risk Management (TPRM)
  • Legal matters or document management systems

Legal & Regulatory Understanding

• Solid understanding of legal and regulatory frameworks relevant to global enterprises (e.g. data privacy, contracts, regulatory compliance)
• Ability to engage confidently with Legal professionals, understand their needs, and translate them into IT solutions
• Experience working in environments with high compliance and audit requirements

Education

• Relevant higher education, for example:
  • Law
  • Business Administration
  • Information Systems
  • IT / Engineering
  • Compliance, Risk, or Governance-related disciplines
• A legal background is an advantage, but not a requirement, if combined with strong practical experience and legal domain understanding

Personal Competencies

• Strong stakeholder management skills across Legal, IT, and external vendors
• Structured, analytical, and able to work with complex requirements
• Comfortable taking ownership and making decisions in a global setup
• Able to balance legal risk, technical feasibility, and operational stability

Why Join DSV?

You will join a global organisation where legal compliance and digital governance are business-critical. In this role, you will have a direct impact on how DSV manages legal risk, regulatory compliance, and secure information handling across the enterprise.

You will work with experienced colleagues across IT and Legal, influence high-visibility platforms, and help shape the future of DSV’s legal and governance landscape.
