In House Counsel Job in Cirencester
Your new company
You will be joining a growing, manufacturing business with luxury modern offices. They pride themselves on their values and result-orientated nature. Working closely with the legal and compliance department, you will be responsible for the provision of support and advice, dealing with a broad range of general and specialised legal and business issues.
Your new role
Your duties will include provision of general legal advice to the Board of Directors and senior management and effective support on corporate compliance and governance issues. You will act as the Company Secretary and ensure compliance with reporting and best practice requirements. Other duties (with consultation from outside counsel as required) will include the management of any product liability enquiries or claims, coordination with Company insurers, management and maintenance of company IP and Trademark portfolio with internal stakeholders and advice and drafting of agreements as required for M & A activities. This is in addition to providing advice and the drafting of agreements for cooperation agreements, as well as drafting, co-ordination and approval of Non-Disclosure Agreements.
What you'll need to succeed
You will possess previous experience in a law firm or in-house legal department and strong experience of reviewing and amending a wide variety of legal documents. You will be equally comfortable taking decisions alone or seeking advice and will enjoy working at the heart of a business with senior management and stakeholders. This is a standalone role therefore relevant legal qualifications and company commercial experience are necessary.
What you'll get in return
A competitive salary and benefits are on offer and free parking is available. This is an excellent opportunity to join a talented and dedicated company who pride themselves on the quality of their customer service.
