Our client is a multi-billion pound international life sciences company. Following a period of rapid and sustained growth, the Group seeks to recruit a dedicated In-house Life Sciences Solicitor to work as Legal & Compliance Counsel for the UK & Ireland business. It is a newly created role in Hertfordshire which will involve a significant amount of responsibility, autonomy and strategic involvement.
The responsibilities of the In-house Life Sciences Solicitor will include both legal and compliance matters, and so existing experience advising life sciences, biotech, medical devices and/or pharmaceutical companies on commercial matters is essential. Specific responsibilities will include: commercial contract drafting, negotiation and advice; implementation, monitoring and compliance and training; public procurement matters; acquisitions; data privacy; competition law; product liability and project management.
The Legal & Compliance Counsel / In-house Life Sciences Solicitor will act as a genuine business partner and consequently this role requires an individual contributor who is capable of working autonomously and with limited supervision. Strong influencing skills and an open, collaborative and friendly style is essential.
In exchange for your efforts, you will be provided with a competitive basic salary and benefits package.
