This cutting-edge and highly acquisitive tech business is looking for its first Sole Legal Counsel.
As part of the Senior Management Team with one direct report, you will advise and support the business on its legal affairs, which includes contracts advisory work involving major household name brands as well as assisting with the company’s corporate growth strategy. Commercial contracts experience is therefore key, although corporate experience would be useful.
You will liaise with the company’s external lawyers and manage a more junior member of the in-house legal team.
The business has already made significant waves in the last 12 months alone in terms of its M&A activity and is set to make further international acquisitions in the coming months. This is an exciting time to be joining the business and helping to shape its legal affairs. There is the opportunity for international travel for those who want it.
The business is looking for a lawyer to work either four or five days per week; with two offices in the North West and the ability to regularly work remotely, there is a significant amount of flexibility. The culture is friendly, open and welcoming.
There are extremely good prospects for the right candidate.
