Job description

• Cubic³’s Legal team sits at the centre of a fast-moving, international technology business, supporting commercial negotiations, regulatory compliance and corporate governance across a broad customer and supplier base spanning multiple jurisdictions
• This is a cross-departmental role with genuine breadth from day one. You’ll play a key role in supporting the legal team through reviewing NDAs, managing templates, running contract execution and standard commercial agreements, and handling corporate filings, but this is deliberately a launchpad, not a ceiling
• As you build fluency with our business, our contracting models and our stakeholders, you’ll be given rapid, structured exposure to higher-value commercial lawyering: live negotiations, deal structuring and direct stakeholder management across the business
• We’re less interested in how many years you’ve clocked up and more interested in how quickly you learn, how much ownership you take, and how comfortable you are operating in a high-pace, multi-faceted environment where no two weeks look the same
• Review and triage incoming NDAs against playbook positions, escalating only where needed
• Own and maintain contract templates and the contract management/execution process
• Draft, review and manage standard commercial agreements (vendor, supplier, customer) ensuring that all documentation is produced with a high level of accuracy in a timely manner
• Handle corporate filings and company secretarial administration
• Use AI-assisted tools to speed up document review, drafting and legal admin
• Progress, with guidance from senior counsel, into supporting negotiations and managing relationships with internal stakeholders across Sales, Finance, Procurement and Product
• Work across departmental lines rather than in a single practice-area silo

Benefits

• 25 days annual leave + 2 company days
• Health Insurance
• Pension Contribution
• ESOP
• Tax saver scheme
• Bike to work scheme
• Sports and social activities
• Great annual office outings (Summer BBQ, Christmas party, charity runs)
• Bits & Bobs days (Half day every quarter to get your Bits & Bobs done)
• Learning and Development Opportunities
