In House Commercial Contracts role
Client Details
This vacancy is with a leading insurance company, based in Stratford upon Avon.
Description
This role will report into the General Counsel. We are seeking Commercial lawyers, who will be responsible for providing commercially focussed advice on a range of legal issues and drafting and negotiating contracts.
The company is undertaking a large number of major change programmes, many of which are underpinned by new technology, and this has resulted in a significant increase in the work of the legal team. The team forms part of a department providing legal, company secretarial, pensions, and health and safety services.
You will join an established and supportive team of in house lawyers.
Profile
The ideal candidate will have trained and worked at a leading UK law firm and have a minimum of five years PQE and a 2 degree. You will be familiar with a broad range of complex commercial and technology work. Experience of working in or for a PRA / FCA regulated business would be an advantage but this is not essential.
Job Offer
Competitive basic salary, bonus and an excellent pension together with a comprehensive benefits package.
