Commercial Legal Counsel
Do you want to contribute to create positive environmental impact on the society? If so, you can be our next talented employee.
Studies show that women and underrepresented groups often hesitate to apply unless they meet every requirement. At Stegra, we’re building an impact-driven, sustainable company - and we need a diverse, inclusive team to make it happen.
If you share our passion but don’t meet every qualification, we encourage you to apply anyway. You might be the perfect fit for this role, or another as we grow.
At Stegra, we’re not just building a plant, we’re proving that sustainable industry is possible. And to do that, we need people like you.
Join a team where safety comes first. Where we support each other, learn as we go, and make space for everyone to grow and contribute. This is your chance to be part of something big - while being closer to nature and leading a balanced, purposeful life.
What you’ll do
Right now, we are looking for a Commercial Legal Counsel to join our Legal team. In this role you will report to our Lead Counsel Corporate Commercial. The team is responsible for supporting Stegra’s business units with high-quality legal advice, ensuring compliance, and managing contractual risk across the organization.
Specific to this role, the day-to-day tasks will include the following – but as we are a fast-growing company with very little silos between teams, other tasks might be included as well:
- Review, draft, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements (supply, sales, logistics, and other key contracts).
- Provide proactive legal advice on commercial risks, liability exposure, and contractual terms to internal stakeholders
- Collaborate closely with sales, procurement, business development, logistics, and other commercial teams to support business execution.
- Monitor developments in commercial law and ensure compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and internal policies.
What you’ll bring
You’re curious and believe that real progress happens when we work together. You’re not afraid to challenge old ways of thinking – and you treat others with respect while doing it. At Stegra, we value people who take initiative, build trust, and help create a workplace where everyone can do their best.
Specific to this role, we would like to see that you can tick off a fair amount of the boxes below:
- Master of Laws (LL.M. or equivalent) with strong academic credentials.
- 3–5 years of relevant commercial law experience, ideally from both a top-tier law firm and an in-house legal department.
- Strong track record in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating commercial contracts.
- Proven expertise in commercial law with excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities.
- Strong negotiation and communication skills with a strategic and commercial mindset.
- Fluent in English (both written and spoken); additional languages are a plus.
- Judicial clerkship (Sw. tingsmeritering) is a plus.
Personal qualities: You are detail-oriented, collaborative, proactive, adaptable, results-oriented, and able to work independently with ownership of your responsibilities.
Benefits at Stegra
At Stegra, you’ll join a company where your work has real impact on the climate, the industry, and future generations. We’re building a culture rooted in safety, trust, and inclusion, where people feel supported to grow and thrive.
You’ll receive fair, competitive compensation aligned with collective agreements, along with benefits like up to 30 days of paid vacation, occupational pension, parental benefits, and insurance. If you need support with relocation or immigration, our relocation department will help guide you through the process, whether it’s permits, housing or other practical matters. You can also enjoy perks like subsidized gym memberships and bike leases, plus the everyday benefits of life closer to nature.

This is Stegra
Stegra is on a mission to change the global steel industry by producing green hydrogen, iron, and steel - with the goal of eliminating CO₂ emissions. Instead of coal, we use green hydrogen and fossil-free electricity, meaning our primary emissions will be water and heat.
By 2030, our ambition is to produce 5 million tonnes of green steel annually in our fully integrated, digitized, and sustainable plant in Boden, Northern Sweden - currently under construction. But this is just the beginning. Our expertise in green hydrogen will enable us to decarbonize industries beyond steel, paving the way for a cleaner future.
Our Stockholm Office
Our modern Stockholm office is located on Norra Stationsgatan, close to Karolinska University Hospital in central Stockholm. Here, you’ll find a bright, collaborative workspace where cross-functional teams connect, share ideas, and drive progress.
