About

Over the years multi-faceted lawyer Carine Lindman-Johannesen has accumulated a wide range of experience in the financial sector. Her multi-faceted career started in 2000 as a junior associate at the M&A department in the law firm Wiersholm. Lindman-Johannesen claims this time gave her a great work morale and insight into the finance industry. In 2004 she moved on to the Norwegian Financial Supervisory Authority where she investigated insider trading, market manipulation and became a certified financial analyst in addition to undertaking an MBA in finance. Wanting to experience a broader scope to her work, in 2006 Lindman-Johannesen took on a role as in-house lawyer at Aker Solutions ASA, who won the award “European In-house Team of the Year”, in recognition of her and her colleagues’ outstanding work. In 2012 Lindman-Johannesen served as associate partner for law firm Kluge, moving to Santander Consumer Bank in January 2016. Lindman-Johannesen acknowledges this felt like ‘coming home’ and ‘I am now at a great place in my career’. First joining as legal and compliance director, she became legal director in May 2017 after she split both teams and created a dedicated compliance function. The process of separating the legal and compliance departments made her realise that although she always maintain a strong compliance focus, the split has allowed her to focus on being the legal partner and leader she wants to be. In addition to the aforementioned division of the department, Lindman-Johannesen has also taken it on herself to transform the team into a more strategic and focused function, getting approval to recruit two new lawyers and three new compliance professionals, going from three to eight people in total and further taking on a data privacy officer, giving the team a lot more capacity to assist the business.
