Job Details

Our client one of the fastest growing Sports Technology Companies in the world is looking for a general commercial lawyer ideally with sports / betting experience to work in a quasi-legal and business facing role.

The CEO is looking for entrepreneurial, commercial and strategic lawyers who may be interested in being part of the commercial sales team. The role will work alongside the CEO to help advise on the strategic direction of the business and will also form part of the management team.  The business is finding that the contracts the sales teams are involved in are becoming increasingly complex and technical. The CEO therefore feels that a lawyer would likely be better placed to drive these deals through as they will ultimately have a far better understanding of the detail.

There may also be an opportunity to support the General Counsel on more traditional legal work if this is important to candidates.

To be considered for the role you will ideally:

  •          Have sports, data, betting and / or rights experience and understand the regulatory requirements within these areas
  •          Be open to working in  a non-traditional legal role and enjoy working in an entrepreneurial and businesses focused environment
  •          Be solutions orientated
  •          Enjoy working in an autonomous environment

The CEO understands that this is a rare opportunity and together with the Managing Director (a former lawyer) he is happy to meet with potential candidates on an exploratory basis to run through their vision and what it is that they are looking to achieve.

If you have the skills described above and are interested in applying for this vacancy, please send your cv to sturnbull@lawabsolute.com

Please note our advertisements use PQE/salary levels purely as a guide. However we are happy to consider applications from all candidates who are able to demonstrate the skills necessary to fulfil the role.

At LAW Absolute we endeavour to respond to all applications within 48 hours. However due to the volume of applications we receive we may not be able to respond to every candidate individually.

If you have not heard from us within a 48 hour timeframe your application has not been successful and your details have not been retained. LAW Absolute acts as an employment business for temporary recruitment and as an employment agency for fixed term contract and permanent recruitment.
