Commercial Lawyer - London

Flexible & remote working

We are looking for an experienced (ideally 4 - 6 PQE) commercial lawyer, to join one of our clients. They are a well-known international business with an established in-house legal team. This is a great opportunity for a first move in house or for a step up from an existing in house position. You will have the opportunity to exercise your skills in an interesting international business with a high quality and interesting workload.

A degree of flexibility and some remote working is available in this role which will come with a competitive package.

To be successful you will need the following skills and attributes:

  • You must be a qualified lawyer in the UK or another comparable jurisdiction. Lawyers with less than 4 years PQE are unlikely to have acquired the experience needed, but if you are exceptional, please convince us!
  • A strong technical legal background is a given and this is likely to have been gained with a leading practice, ideally with some in-house experience as well.
  • You will need to have a good understanding of and exposure to a wide range of commercial contracts.
  • Technology experience and knowledge of the legal issues associated with outsourced services and SAAS may be an advantage.
  • Importantly, you will need to be a good fit; so as well as being charismatic and personable, you will also be highly motivated, client focused and will have a demonstrably commercial approach with plenty of initiative.

You will be working as a key member of our client's established in-house legal team and will also find yourself working closely with stakeholders across the business and externally.

The position is open now and we are keen to identify the right person and get them in place as soon as possible. So if this resonates with you, please don't hesitate to get in touch.

If you would like to know more, please send your CV in confidence to Nick Benson.

By applying for this role, your details will be sent to Ortolan People, who are engaged to provide recruitment support in processing applications. We will endeavour to respond to all applicants within three working days. Occasionally for roles with a very high volume of applicants, this may not be possible.
