Privacy, Data & Cyber Regulatory Counsel

Nokia · Finland

As part of Nokia's Legal job family, this role sits within the Global Privacy, Data and Cyber Regulatory Office (GPDCRO) — Nokia's centre of excellence for data protection, cybersecurity regulation, and emerging data-related law — reporting to the Head of Privacy and Data Trust. It applies deep specialist expertise across data protection, cybersecurity law, AI governance, commercial contracting, and incident response, acting as the primary legal interface between Nokia's European and UK business operations and the rapidly evolving regulatory landscape.

This is an AI-first legal team. We actively build and use AI-assisted workflows — from agentic legal research to automated regulatory horizon scanning — and expect everyone in the team to engage seriously with what AI can do for legal work. The role works alongside counterparts covering the Americas, Middle East and Africa, and Asia Pacific, with genuine opportunity to collaborate on cross-jurisdictional matters. If you are excited by building the legal function of the future rather than maintaining the legal function of the past, you will fit in here.

The Privacy, Data and Cyber Regulatory Counsel – Europe & UK holds direct, end-to-end accountability for Nokia's legal compliance with data protection and cybersecurity regulation across Europe and the United Kingdom. This is not a background advisory role: you hold the legal position for your region, take ownership of your work, and are directly accountable for outcomes. Nokia is at the centre of the AI supercycle — building 5G networks, cloud-native platforms, data centres, and the AI-native software stacks that connect billions of people. The legal and regulatory challenges here are genuinely interesting: from how telecom subscriber data is handled in real-time AI-driven networks, to the legal implications of the EU Cyber Resilience Act for open-source software in critical infrastructure. If you want to do privacy and cyber law at the frontier of where regulation meets real technology, this is the role.
