In-House Commercial Legal Counsel sought by well known North West organisation.

Your new company

This North West organisation has an excellent profile and continues to flourish.

Your new role

This In-House Commercial Legal Counsel role will see you play a strategically important role for the business. You will be joining a well established in-house function that plays a pivotal role in terms of the ongoing success of the organisation. Reporting into the Head of Legal, you will work on a truly interesting mix of work. This will include general commercial contractual matters, procurement contracts, IT agreements and IP contracts. You will also advise on data protection, joint ventures and consumer law matters. You will also play a role in advising the organisation on its exposure to risk and compliance.

What you'll need to succeed

You should be a commercial lawyer with 5+ years' pqe. You will have wide ranging commercial experience gained within either an in-house setting or a well regarded law firm. You should possess strong communication skills and be able to build effective working relationships both within the in-house legal team and throughout the wider business. Applications are invited from commercial lawyers looking to work part-time. Whilst this is a permanent role, applications are also invited from commercial lawyers who may wish to consider the opportunity initially on a fixed term contract basis.

What you'll get in return

This is an excellent In-House Commercial Legal Counsel role that will provide access to a remarkably broad spread of work that is both interesting and challenging. The organisation can provide both career security and career progression making it relatively unique. The organisation is also noted as being able to provide a genuine work/life balance. The business has a well thought through hybrid working policy that can provide generous amounts of home working. The financial package on offer is negotiable but is extremely competitive, comprehensive and very robust.
