Role Overview

A leading global organisation is seeking an experienced In House Construction Lawyer to lead all contract-related legal activity across the business. This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially focused construction legal professional to join a business that genuinely prioritises its people, culture and long-term career development.

Working closely with senior stakeholders and operational teams, you will play a key role in drafting, negotiating and advising on a broad range of construction and commercial agreements, while helping to protect the business from contractual and commercial risk.

Candidate Profile / Experience Needed

The successful candidate will have strong experience within non-contentious construction law, either from private practice or an in‑house environment, with the ability to confidently manage complex contractual matters from instruction through to completion.

Key experience includes:
