England, United Kingdom Barchester Healthcare Full time

This is a newly-created role for a solicitor to work in Barchester Healthcare’s in-house Legal Team, with a primary focus on commercial and regulatory matters. This is a permanent, predominantly remote position with occasional travel to London as and when required.
The successful candidate will be dealing with the drafting, negotiating and advising the business on a broad range of contracts, and assisting with inquest management and other regulatory matters. From time to time work will also involve data protection elements.
The Legal Team takes a “hands on” approach, and we are therefore looking for a real self-starter with an excellent knowledge of contract law and ideally someone with experience in a regulated sector (albeit, the latter is not an essential prerequisite).
This role would be suitable for a practising solicitor who already has in-house legal experience, or is keen to make the move from private practice, and is wishing to have a rewarding career working for one of the UK’s largest healthcare providers.
Role and responsibilities
• Commercial contracts, including Master Services Agreements, Framework Agreements, Supply of Goods and Services Agreements (both Barchester’s own and supplier agreements), Marketing Agreements, Consultancy Agreements and Non-Disclosure Agreements.
• Technology contracts, including Software as Service Agreements (SaaS), Software Licences, Software Development Agreements, Managed Service Agreements and Service Level Agreements.
• From time to time: data protection work, which will relate to data protection compliance documentation, privacy notices, DPIAs, DPAs, and electronic marketing advice.
• Case management and progression under the direction of the Director of Nursing.
• Reviewing evidence
• Interviewing witnesses and drafting statements
• Drafting instructions to counsel and experts
• Corresponding with witnesses, experts, counsel and other stakeholders
• Supporting stakeholders including vulnerable witnesses
• Drafting court documents
• Drafting legal advice on evidence and case status
Experience and qualifications:
The ideal candidate will:
• Be a minimum of 2 years PQE, with a current practising certificate
• Have strong contract law knowledge, and an understanding of B2B and B2C law
• Be confident, personable and a great communicator - both in writing and verbally
• In-house legal experience and/or experience in a top tier law firm is desired but not essential
• Contentious experience desired, not essential
• Knowledge and experience of inquests is desired, but not essential
• Strong organisational and time management skills, along with the ability to work collaboratively within a team and independently when necessary
• Excellent problem-solving skills to deliver legal solutions to commercial issues across all areas of the business
• Someone who is proactive, can manage their own caseload and knows how to prioritise matters, with a strong attention to detail
Rewards and benefits
We are offering an impressive rewards and benefits package, including:
• Competitive salary
• Competitive benefits
• 25 days'' annual leave, plus bank holidays
• Discretionary annual bonus
• Opportunity for hybrid working, with office time (London) contingent on the needs of the business
• Access to a wide range of retail and leisure discounts at recognised brands and supermarkets
