• Providing practical, commercially focused legal advice across the business

• Managing relationships with external counsel where required

Candidates should:

• Be England & Wales qualified with 3 to 5 years’ PQE

• Have strong corporate experience gained at a well-regarded law firm

• Ideally have exposure to venture capital and high-growth technology transactions

• Be confident working independently within a lean legal environment

• Have a pragmatic and commercially minded approach

The position would suit someone looking to step into a broad in-house role with real responsibility, international exposure and close interaction with senior stakeholders from day one.
