Job Details

I am exclusively instructed by my client who seeks a sole counsel for this key strategic role, providing robust legal oversight for the business.

The organisation is looking for an experienced and commercially focused lawyer to work closely with the Board, providing strategic advice and legal counsel to the business. Legal matters will include general contract management; drafting, negotiating and advising on a wide range of agreements, also giving advice on operational, corporate, regulatory, litigation and compliance matters.

To be of interest for this role you will have a minimum of 7 years PQE (to more senior), a commercial contracts background and will also have a strong track record in giving commercial legal advice to the highest level of clients/stakeholders. Lawyers from a private practice background will be of equal interest as those already in-house. You should be a strong communicator, very commercially aware and solutions focused. You should also possess strong analytical and negotiating skills.

This is a fantastic senior in-house role, perfect for someone keen to perform a pivotal role within an organisation and make a real difference. On offer is a generous remuneration package, which will be bespoke, dependant on level and experience. Only lawyers with UK experience will be considered.

To learn more about this opportunity please send your CV to the retained consultant, Adele Callaghan (specifying full details of your current remuneration package) or contact me for a return call to discuss the role. This position is being handled exclusively by Hays Legal and any direct or third-party applications will be forwarded to Hays Legal for consideration.
