You will be expected to:
- Manage a broad spectrum of legal work, including reviewing, drafting, negotiating and advising on a variety of legal agreements, which will be mainly property and construction contracts
- Specifically, this will mean reviewing, drafting and negotiating terms of appointment for architects and other consultant types. As well as negotiations involving contractorsappointed under our large package agreements and/or other design & build contracts

- Take responsibility for the supervision and training of more junior lawyers within the team;
- Be a lead participant in the shaping and delivery of the future strategy of the Group Legal Team, including the implementation of a tailored training programme for the wider business; and
- Actively participate in and collaborate with the Senior lawyers and/or the Group Head of Legal as and where required in respect of complex and strategic projects

- At least 8 years PQE
- Amotivated, energised and confident character, with a “can do” approach to their work and advice
- Be commercially minded
- Be able to effectively balance risk with the overall aims and objectives of the Group
- In-house experience helpful but not an absolute prerequisite for the role
- Ability to work effectively both as part of a team and autonomously
