Philip Lindell
Legal Counsel: Global Operations, The Absolut Group
My role is about…
…empowering teams across the business to navigate legal topics, from procurement and production to supply chain and innovation.
In practice, that means helping secure the goods, services and partnerships we need to make our products.
A common misconception…
…is that legal work is repetitive and monotonous, reviewing contract after contract after contract.
My role is actually incredibly dynamic and collaborative. I work with colleagues from every corner of the business, learning about everything from machines on the production line to international shipping.
My best advice…
…is to stay curious about the people you work with.
A solid grasp of the law is important, but legal advice doesn’t operate in a vacuum. Zooming into the details and intricacies of the people we’re supporting – that’s where we can add the most value.
A proud moment…
…was walking the production line for the first time.
It really brought everything together, seeing what we create, the care behind it, and the real impact of the legal support we give.
Conviviality means…
…collaborating across borders.
Our global legal community is always connected, sharing ideas, solving challenges, and supporting each other with energy and passion. To me, this is what conviviality is all about.
