Job description

I am working in collaboration with a Leeds-based organisation within the digital services sector that is looking to recruit either:

1. a qualified lawyer with excellent commercial contracts and data protection experience, or
2. a commercial contracts manager with extensive experience dealing with various types of commercial agreements and documentation.

While my client is very flexible regarding remote working, it is essential that candidates live within an easily accessible distance of Leeds, as commuting to the office at least once a week is a minimum requirement.

The company's business is in a significant growth phase, and this opportunity offers the successful candidate the chance to be a key part of that growth, working with various stakeholders to elevate the business to the next level.

Applications are welcome from:

• Commercial lawyers currently working in-house or within successful commercial private practice teams with strong reputations for commercial work,
• Candidates who have gained qualification through non-traditional routes (e.g., CILEx / SQE), provided they possess the requisite commercial contracts experience.
