• Serve as the lead point of contact for your area, overseeing one or more counsels and ensuring high-quality output from your sub-team.
• Provide expert legal advice to HQ and regional teams, combining multiple subject areas to address complex business matters.
• Anticipate business needs, create scalable processes, and develop self-service tools (playbooks, templates, FAQs) to support growth.
• Draft, negotiate, and manage standard supplier contracts, and establish frameworks to streamline contracting.
• Build strong, proactive relationships with stakeholders and the Legal & Compliance team, managing both internal and external legal support.
• Contribute to strategic planning, identify opportunities for automation, and drive implementation across verticals.
  
  
  

About you:

• You are a UK or EU-qualified lawyer with 5+ years of post-qualification experience, ideally in the tech, mobility, or platform space - whether in-house or at a top-tier firm.
• You have significant experience in commercial contracts (and ideally procurement), marketing, and intellectual property.
• You are a hands-on generalist counsel who thrives on supporting diverse teams, diving deep into commercial contracts, marketing initiatives, and IP matters - delivering pragmatic, business-friendly solutions.
• You are a strong contract drafter and negotiator - clear, commercially minded, and firm when needed.
• You get things done - organised, decisive, and able to meet deadlines.
• You have a true business partner mindset, speaking your stakeholders’ language and translating legal risk into smart, actionable decisions.
  
  
  

Experience is great, but what we really look for is drive, intelligence, and integrity. So even if you don’t tick every box, please consider applying if you feel you’re the kind of person described above!
