Senior Commercial/IP Lawyer

Publishing Sector, 12 month contract

Unique opportunity to work in the sought-after publishing sector and be part of a collegiate team with a truly lovely organisation!

This highly respected publishing business is a leader in its field. The business has an excellent reputation and is able to partner with world-class authors and industry experts to produce top publications and digital content for professionals.

The Opportunity

The business now has a need for a commercial lawyer, ideally with IP (copyright) to join for 12 months. The role will provide key legal support to the business on commercial contracts as well as IP rights, licensing, and copyright. You will negotiate media and digital content agreements as well as key commercial contracts with partners, authors, and editors. You will also be involved in contractual disputes and copyright infringement matters as they may arise.

About You

This is an excellent opportunity for a senior commercial/IP or media lawyer to join a highly respected listed company for 12 months. While commercial contracts experience is key, IP experience (particularly in relation to contentious and non-contentious copyright matters) would be useful.

The position will suit an individual who enjoys a collegiate and collaborative environment with a degree of intellectual rigour and a clear purpose.
