Description du poste

Find where you belong!

What if you could elevate your legal career by joining a dynamic team where your expertise is not just valued, but essential in shaping the future of the growth and success of a business and corporate strategies?

We are looking for an enthusiastic lawyer to join our growing Legal team. This is a great opportunity for someone who is seeking a new challenge and looking to join a company which is an established household name but also ambitious and at an exciting time in its development.

Your Purpose

As our Legal Counsel, you will provide legal support across the business, assess risks and effectively communicate with internal and external stakeholders. You will provide legal support to departments across the business, including Procurement, IT, Marketing, People, Sales and Operations, particularly in respect of contractual matters. This will include managing the legal process across a broad variety of business initiatives and reviewing and negotiating commercial agreements.

You will get to work cross-functionally on larger projects as well as working independently on smaller and/ or strategic matters.

Your Strengths

You will be 2+ years' PQE with a corporate or commercial law background, gained at either a good private practice or in-house. You will have experience of working with high value contracts and complex matters and be able to deal with a range of largely but not exclusively contractual projects.

You will have the ability to make commercial decisions rather than simply advise on legal risks and have a willingness to advise practically on contract disputes and interpretation.

Your Perks

• Contributory pension scheme
• Hybrid working - a minimum of 60% of your time should be spent in the office
• 50% personal discount for hotel bookings and great friends and family discounts too!
• 25 days holiday + bank holidays, increasing with length of service
