Paralegal Intern

SwissBorg is building the future of crypto wealth management—making investing more accessible, transparent and intuitive for everyone. At the core of our platform is the Meta-Exchange (MEX), a smart routing engine that connects multiple exchanges and liquidity sources to deliver optimal execution in a single, seamless app. We're Swiss-engineered, regulated, and trusted by nearly one million users managing over $1B in crypto assets. But beyond the numbers, what drives us is the people behind every wallet—and a commitment to continuously improving how they experience and interact with crypto. Crypto is one of the fastest-moving industries to build in, and SwissBorg is right at the heart of it — helping hundreds of thousands of people grow and manage their wealth through a regulated, trusted platform. As our Paralegal Intern, you'll work closely with our Legal team, gaining first-hand experience of how a MiCA-regulated crypto business operates while playing a meaningful role in supporting the team's day-to-day work. We're ideally looking for someone with a paralegal background. You don't need to have completed a full law degree, but you should have a solid understanding of legal fundamentals and be nearing the end of your studies.  If you don't come from a legal background, we'd still love to hear from you if you have strong administrative experience, enjoy learning new things, and are excited to develop your legal knowledge on the job. Please note: This is an onsite position and you must be based in or around Lausanne. Day to day:

Providing general administrative support to the Legal & HR teams

Managing part of our contracts lifecycle: logging incoming requests, preparing some documents based on templates, tracking review and signature status, and maintaining up to date personnel files;

Handling correspondence and document requests with external authorities;

Supporting the processing of user succession cases; 

Assisting with due diligence questionnaires from partners as part of onboarding, with training and guidance from the team;

Obtaining official and certified personal and corporate documentation, liaising with notaries and the chancellerie for legalisations;

Organising wet-ink signatures, and handling document filing, both digital and hard copy;

Various other ad-hoc administrative tasks.

About you:

An interest in, or some exposure to, the Swiss legal system — a legal or paralegal background is a nice-to-have, not a requirement;

A comfortable, organised approach to administrative work, and a genuine willingness to learn on the job;

Based in or around Lausanne, with the ability to work from our office at least 3 days a week — this is a firm requirement of the role, not a preference;

Fluency in French and English

Exceptional attention to detail and a methodical approach to record-keeping;

Comfortable moving between routine admin tasks and more specialised, training-based responsibilities.
