Our client is looking to grow its established legal team based in Northampton. As a result of this, our client is searching for an excellent commercial lawyer with between NQ-3 years PQE to join them to focus on a wide range of commercial legal matters. The focus of this role is predominately on drafting and negotiating large scale contracts for the business.
This will encompass the following:
- Advising and negotiating numerous contracts for the provision of services to a range of clients inclusive of service contracts, security contracts, IT and facilities management. This includes coordinating legal support across various jurisdictions
- Review, amend, draft, develop and maintain legal team's precedents, policies and procedures
- Support general in-house legal work such as PSC Registers, confirmation statements, insurance renewals, audits
- Provide ad hoc support to litigation provided by other lawyers (e.g. civil disputes / employment tribunals)
This role will suit either a lawyer already working in-house or a lawyer in private practice looking to move in-house for the first time. Commercial contracts experience is desirable, however, we would also be keen to hear from junior lawyers focusing on transactional or non contentious disciplines currently working in leading national law firms.
If you're interested in this role, please apply now or forward an up-to-date copy of your CV, or call us.
