This is a rare greenfield opportunity to shape the legal function in a fast-scaling business that partners with leading pharmaceutical, biotech, and CRO organisations globally.

The Role

You will work closely with the Executive Team and take ownership of legal matters across the business – spanning commercial contracts, data protection, IP strategy, and risk management.

Key Responsibilities

• Draft, review, and negotiate a broad range of agreements (client, vendor, partnership)
• Provide legal support to cross-functional teams, including Sales, Operations, Science, and Finance
• Advise on GDPR compliance and international data transfers
• Contribute to the company’s IP strategy, particularly around digital tools
• Support wider legal needs including insurance, employment, and corporate activity (as relevant)

About You

• England & Wales qualified solicitor with 2–7 years’ PQE
• Broad commercial legal experience, ideally within pharma, biotech, life sciences, or healthtech
• Comfortable operating as sole counsel and advising senior leadership
• Strategic thinker with a hands-on mindset and excellent communication skills
• Ambitious, adaptable, and keen to help shape both the legal function and the wider business

Why Apply?

This is a high-impact, high-visibility role in a company with a strong sense of mission. You’ll play a crucial part in enabling international growth and building a legal function from the ground up.

With a supportive, collaborative culture and newly launched company values centred on peer support, ambition, and continuous improvement, this is a rare opportunity for someone seeking both challenge and long-term progression.
