Your new company
A global technology services and solutions business with fantastic offices in the City. The company has a talented and commercially driven leadership team and a culture that encourages everyone to have an opinion and contribute to ideas. The company will operate a hybrid working model post-pandemic and has a proud record of looking after its people's well-being.

Your new role
A newly created Legal Counsel position with a global remit reporting into the Senior Counsel, as part of a small but crucial in-house legal function. In a fast-paced commercial and tech-driven environment you will advise clients and third parties on legal and business risk, while taking the lead in data privacy orientated matters. Further, you will be busy advising on broad commercial, compliance and corporate matters, interacting with stakeholders across the business including sales, finance, compliance and technical teams.

What you'll need to succeed
You will be a UK qualified lawyer with 1-3 PQE (as a guide only), with demonstrable experience around data privacy and general commercial issues. The business is looking for a driven, solutions-driven lawyer with training either from a reputable practice firm or structured in-house training contract, and excellent academics. You will be a confident communicator able to simplify legal challenges when discussing with lay colleagues, and you will be able to manage stakeholders at all levels.

What you'll get in return
Flexible working options available. You will be working with hugely knowledgeable and commercial lawyers who will support you in your development as an in-house lawyer in a global environment. Your hard work will be rewarded with a competitive salary with annual reviews, bonus target and a comprehensive package. This is a company that lives by its values and has an impressive retention rate.
