London, United Kingdom HSBC Full time

Who are HSBC Innovation Banking?

We’re the power behind the UK’s forward-thinkers, future-makers and leap-takers, helping them ignite the bold ideas that reshape our world. We offer flexible banking solutions for start-ups, scale-ups, growth businesses, investors and those working towards IPO. Whether it’s comprehensive banking, managing cashflow, plans for buyouts or Global Funds Banking, we power ideas at every stage of their journey. From the first-time founders to the funds that back them and everything in between. Here’s to never standing still. We're proud to accelerate growth for tech and life science businesses, create meaningful connections and open a world of global opportunity for entrepreneurs and investors alike.

About the team:

The HSBC Innovation Bank legal function is embedded into the expanding UK business resulting in a fantastic opportunity for a qualified lawyer to develop their in-house experience in a small team where there is a broad variety of work, opportunity for development and a culture that encourages innovation.

About the role:

As Corporate Counsel, you will report to the Associate General Counsel.

You’ll proactively get to understand the overall business to better support the legal function in the execution of its duties, to understand and analyse complex issues to come to conclusions supported by evidence and have attention to detail. You must be able to translate sound legal knowledge into practical business advice and communicate that advice in a clear and coherent way.

You’ll work on confidential and sensitive matters, exercising good judgement in the execution of your role and putting the needs of the business first. You will also be expected to “cast the right shadow” within the wider business, including acting as a liaison point into both the HSBC Innovation Bank and wider HSBC legal teams.

Key Responsibilities:

Your primary responsibilities will be managing vendor and commercial contracts and data privacy matters for HSBC Innovation Bank in the UK but there will also be opportunities to ‘lean in’ to other projects and strategic initiatives. The role includes:

• Global Vendor contract review, interpretation, and drafting, including negotiating NDAs as well as advising the business on intra group and outsourcing arrangements.

• Implementing a target operating model between HSBC Innovation Bank Legal and Vendor Management teams and other HSBC Group stakeholders.

• Working closely with HSBC Privacy teams to embed a target operating model for HINV Privacy and advising on compliance with regulation on an ongoing basis.

• Working with change management team on a broad range of projects including enhancement to strategic growth projects.

• Drafting and maintenance of Legal Policies and Procedures to implement and embed new processes for legal risk management.

• Assistance with the management of external counsel relationships.
