The environment is unique in the area and offers a rich variety of interesting, challenging and in some cases pioneering work. You'll very much be positioned within the very heart of the business and the legal function is integral to the whole operation.

The role will involve dealing with an array of contracts covering; procurement, logistics/supply chain, supply, distribution etc however you'll be working with the Board and key stakeholders advising on providing legal support during the commercial tendering and negotiation phases to ensure implementation of relevant risk management policies.

You'll be expected to take a lead on a selection of projects, providing valid and commercial legal advice and viable solutions, reporting back to the GC, Head of Legal and the Board.

Some experience in non-contentious company commercial lawyer is highly desirable and we'd anticipate this person having around 2 years PQE, although we are equally interested in hearing from candidates with a projects and construction background. Your commercial attitude and aptitude, a strong work ethic and desire to be the best you can be however, is essential.
