Chelmsford, Essex, United Kingdom Anglia Ruskin University Full time

About ARU:
ARU is a global university transforming lives through innovative, inclusive and entrepreneurial education and research. ARU holds a Gold award for the quality of its education, awarded through the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF).

ARU's research institutes and four faculties bridge scientific, technical and creative fields. We deliver impactful research which tackles pressing issues and makes a real difference to our communities. Our academic excellence has been recognised by the UK's Higher Education funding bodies, with 16 of our research areas assessed as world leading. We are the largest provider of Nursing, Midwifery, Health and Social Care students in the East of England, and we are also among the UK's leading universities for degree apprenticeship provision, working with hundreds of employers across the UK.

About the Role:
As a solicitor within the University, you'll provide legal advice independently as part of a small legal team to internal clients on a wide range of commercial, IP and property law matters. Key responsibilities will include drafting and negotiating a wide variety of commercial agreements, so you'll need to have excellent drafting and other technical legal skills. You'll also be responsible for the day to day management of your own legal files. With a working knowledge of procurement law, you'll help to ensure that we're compliant with our legal and regulatory obligations so we can withstand scrutiny by relevant external bodies as well as legal challenges.

With a degree plus demonstrable professional experience for the role or relevant professional/degree level qualification (chartered where appropriate), you'll be a current UK qualified solicitor. Ideally, you'll have strong training and post qualification experience from a recognised private practice law firm or local authority, although all background experience will be considered. You'll also have significant and substantial experience working in a legal role. Proven ability to be sensitive to client needs as well as the ability to work in a higher education environment is essential for this role.

This is a full time position, flexibility will be considered; remote working included.
