Key Responsibilities
  • Draft, review, and negotiate a broad range of commercial, construction, and engineering agreements, including consultancy agreements, framework agreements, and NDAs for regional units, including contracts with international financial institutions and development banks.
  • Analysis and identify departures from our governance as part of the review of such commercial agreements and assist project teams in obtaining the necessary internal approvals where appropriate.
  • Confidently advise business on applicable laws, jurisdictions, and regulations.
  • Revise and maintain legal templates for use across the Group, ensuring they reflect current best practice and legislation.

  • Support other parts of the Legal Department, such as the Ethics & Compliance and Data Protection teams.
Requirements
  • A qualified lawyer with circa 4-8 years of experience gained in a mixture of private practice and in-house, with a focus on either commercial and construction law (preferably gained in a consultancy environment or with a client/contractor including cross-border supply).
  • A proven track record of advising on legal matters across a range of jurisdictions, particularly civil law jurisdictions in the Middle East (a candidate who has lived and worked in the Middle East in the past would be highly regarded for this role).
  • Excellent drafting, cooperation, communication, and negotiation skills.
  • Experience of drafting and negotiating standard form contracts, as well as working on matters relating to international financial institutions and development banks in terms of contracting/funding structures.
Desirable
  • Experience of having lived and worked in the Middle East, including understanding of Middle East countries' civil laws.
What We Offer

This role offers a unique opportunity to gain experience in a wide variety of legal disciplines, including contract reviews, construction law advice, company law, cross-border delivery, disputes, claims, and insurance.

Some travel may be required for this role, primarily consisting of travel to South Asia and the Middle East, but is not fundamental to the role.
