You will also need to develop relationships with colleagues from across the IMA as well as a variety of other public authorities and stakeholders.

As part of this role, you will also contribute to the effective engagement with stakeholders. This will include promoting the work of the IMA to the public and promote the rights of EU and EEA EFTA citizens to create a fairer system for all.

The successful applicant will also be responsible for working with external legal service providers and counsel when required, under the direction and oversight of the General Counsel.

You will have the full support of experienced and dedicated colleagues both from within the Legal Directorate and from colleagues across the IMA.

As a Senior Legal Adviser, the post-holder will have responsibility for advising and supporting Legal Adviser colleagues in the team, in particular on more complex and new areas of legal issues and questions.
