High-profile work & unique career-enhancing challenges

The Government Legal Department touches almost every aspect of public life. From healthcare to artificial intelligence, energy to national security, we support the development and implementation of government policies. We advise on some of the most important projects in the UK – and matters that are frequently scrutinised in Parliament and the media. Join us. You can look forward to unique high-profile work, outstanding career development, and the satisfaction that comes from a far-reaching role in the life of a nation. This is much more than law.

The Role

Launched in 2014 – creating a first-of-its kind single expert source of commercial advice across government – the Commercial Law Group (CLG) in GLD delivers a dynamic and collaborative legal service. We provide specialist support in commercial law, litigation and dispute resolution to a range of departments.

Our clients include the Cabinet Office, Department of Health and Social Care, Home Office, Department for Work and Pensions, Defra, Ministry of Justice and Ministry of Defence, each with dedicated CLG Advisory/Transactional Teams. 

As a Senior Commercial Lawyer, whichever team you join, you’ll be involved in some of the most interesting, varied and complex commercial work available in the UK. Working at the forefront of government policy, you’ll lead, manage, develop and supervise the work of other lawyers within your team. You’ll develop strategies and enhance your expertise delivering quality legal advice across a range of challenging projects.

About you

A qualified Solicitor, Barrister or Chartered Legal Executive, you must have demonstrable commercial and contract experience. You’ll bring a good working knowledge of public procurement issues, and the ability to lead the negotiation of draft commercial law. You can think both strategically and creatively about a range of issues within a wider context, ideally with an understanding of public law too.

Your reliable judgement and analysis will be matched with confidence to give persuasive, balanced and risk-based advice. Open-minded and impartial you welcome diverse opinions while, where needed, standing by your actions and those of your team. You thrive on working collaboratively and at pace to deliver a high-quality customer-focused service. And, with strong leadership and motivational skills, you can explain complex issues clearly and communicate openly with others to build trust.

Benefits

Working at GLD is going to be a constant and rapid learning curve. We offer a supportive and thorough career progression & development programme with opportunities to work across a number of legal areas and with a range of government departments and organisations. You can expect a competitive pay package, an excellent Civil Service Pension and flexible working arrangements.
