Job Details
My client, an international manufacturing business with prominent presence in America and EMEA requires a qualified Solicitor to run an In-House legal department from South Yorkshire.
Previous In-House experience would be useful, although not essential, however we would anticipate this role suiting a non-contentious Commercial Lawyer who was looking to make their first move into a management/strategic role.
You're likely to have at least 7 years PQE in commercial law gained from a reputable In-House team or national firm. You'll have competent drafting skills and a confident, robust and positive approach to problem solving. Experience of international procurement agreements and general commercial agreements including sales, maintenance and service levels etc would be useful, however you'll also liaise in relation to employment and corporate affairs.
It is an exciting time to join a leading player in this sector and an opportunity for a commercial pragmatist to work in a role which allows genuine influence, managing and running a small legal function.
The role requires a motivated, reliable, confident and flexible self-starter who is comfortable being challenged at senior level.

Company
Sacco Mann are specialist Legal Recruiters recognised as regional experts with a genuine interest in, as well as knowledge of, their marketplace. We are renowned for giving clear and straightforward career advice and true quality of service.
We have thirteen experienced consultants focussing on legal recruitment, encompassing the Commercial, General Practice, Public Sector and In House positions, both permanent and locum. In addition two consultants specialise within the Patents and Trademarks sector.
We feel that much of our success has been due to the fact that we:
- try to accurately guage and understand what both candidates and clients require and indeed that which they are able to offer and then bring the two together
- have a demonstrable knowledge of the marketplace. Fundamentally what you need is not merely someone who can post your CV to a practice, but someone whose strength of contacts within the firms can add value, ensuring that you are given proper consideration
- discuss each role with you thoroughly and get prior clearance before a CV is submitted. This is an extremely important for protecting confidentiality and avoiding duplication
- brief you fully prior to any interviews, ensuring that you know what the role entails and how the interview will be run. We also give you honest interview feedback - if you don't do very well in an interview you can always learn from the experience
- are accessible and return your calls

Principally because we believe that the points outlined above are fundamental. We enjoy recruitment, and we are good at it, because we genuinely enjoy assisting people make positive career moves.
