Commercial Counsel 5PQE+ – Global Gaming / Entertainment Business

We’re working with a high-growth, global gaming and betting company undergoing an exciting phase of expansion. This is a rare opportunity to join a scaling international business with a strong market presence and ambitious growth plans.

You’ll be joining a dynamic, forward-thinking legal team, working closely with the business on high-impact, commercially driven work across multiple jurisdictions.

The Opportunity

This role offers the chance to step into a broad, hands-on in-house position, partnering directly with key stakeholders and contributing to fast-moving, strategic projects.

It’s an ideal move for someone looking to transition in-house or step up into a more influential, business-facing role within the entertainment, gaming, and digital space.

Key Responsibilities

  • Draft, review, and negotiate a wide range of commercial agreements, including:
  • Supplier and service contracts
  • Marketing, sponsorship, and partnership agreements
  • Technology, SaaS, and platform-related contracts
  • Data protection and privacy-related agreements
  • Advise on customer-facing terms and digital products
  • Partner closely with teams across marketing, tech, and compliance
  • Support on regulatory and consumer law matters
  • Assist with strategic projects, including potential M&A activity
  • Help drive improvements in legal processes and contract management

About You

  • 5+ PQE (England & Wales qualified) — although we will consider strong candidates outside of this range
  • Strong background in commercial contracts from private practice
  • Commercially minded with a proactive, solutions-focused approach
  • Confident working in a fast-paced, evolving environment
  • Interest in the entertainment, gaming, or digital sector is a plus

Why This Role?

  • Rare opportunity to join a growing, international business at a key stage
  • Work closely with a high-performing and collaborative team
  • Exposure to varied, high-impact work across entertainment and digital markets
  • A role where you can genuinely shape and influence the business

If you’re looking for a role where you can make a real impact while working on exciting, fast-paced commercial matters, I’d love to speak.
