What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my legal expertise in a dynamic environment, focusing on labor law and compliance.

I am a bilingual Legal and HR professional with a Master’s in Law Practice, licensed to practice law in Spain. My experience spans legal advisory and consulting for international clients, particularly in labor law and compliance. I am passionate about bringing strategic insight and adaptability to dynamic, globally-minded teams.

Currently, I serve as a Spanish HR Specialist and Legal Counsel at Herensys, where I provide comprehensive legal advisory for foreign companies, manage compliance processes, and coordinate multidisciplinary teams across the EMEA regions. My previous role at PricewaterhouseCoopers involved consulting on governance, risk, and compliance projects, where I honed my skills in identifying legal issues and implementing efficient solutions.

With a solid educational background in law and labor relations, I am dedicated to ensuring regulatory compliance and providing effective legal solutions. I thrive in environments that challenge my expertise and allow me to contribute to organizational success.
