In-house Commercial Lawyer - Yorkshire based

My client, an international business seeks a commercial lawyer to join this impressive, innovative organisation operating at the cutting edge of its market. As part of a highly collegiate legal team, you will provide robust advice in a fast-moving environment, working directly with senior management team across the group to support business critical projects.

This is a key appointment and a fantastic opportunity for a lawyer to join an outstanding legal team and undertake a wide range of matters. Matters will include drafting, negotiating and advising on a wide range of commercial agreements, many with an IT element, as well as major multi-million pound purchase agreements . Your key internal stakeholders will include the client teams, IT, DPO and IT departments. Suitable candidates need not have experience in all areas but a grounding in commercial contracts gained in either private practice or in-house is key. Additionally, there is the chance to be involved in rolling out training within the organisation, covering legal updates and risk and governance.

As a highly innovative business, the client has adapted their systems to enable home working but there will be the need to travel to the office on an occasional basis for key meetings. If you are a commercially-focused individual, who is a confident communicator and will not be fazed in dealing with a wide range of stakeholders, at various levels, this could be the opportunity for you.

This is a fantastic role, for someone keen to work within a fast-moving organisation and make a real difference. On offer is a generous remuneration package offering a wide range of benefits. 4 or 5 days per week. Only lawyers with UK experience will be considered.

To learn more about this opportunity please send your CV to Adele Callaghan or email me for a return call to discuss the role.
