  3. Drafting standard terms for sales to consumers.
  4. Advising on data protection compliance including desktop audits and time-sensitive matters as they arise.
  5. Providing transactional support to the corporate team.
  • Ensure personal legal knowledge is kept up to date and new advancements are communicated to the wider team.
  • Be involved in the marketing and business development of both the department and the firm.
Skills, Knowledge and Expertise
  • You will have a minimum of 3 years PQE in a commercial law role.
  • Preferably, have an excellent academic background.
  • Possess exceptional client care skills.
