Job Title: Commercial Legal Counsel

About the Role

We are seeking a highly skilled Commercial Legal Counsel to join our team in Ireland and Northern Ireland. As a key member of our legal team, you will provide commercially focused, strategic legal support to enable Diageo Ireland's long-term success in a changing regulatory environment.

The Public Health (Alcohol) Act has resulted in a critical change in the way Diageo markets and advertises its brands, with one of the strictest regulatory environments in Europe expected over the next 3 years. Coupled with Diageo Ireland's long-term strategy of digital transformation, this role will provide strategic support to the business in navigating complex challenges in relation to contract, consumer, competition, data privacy and marketing laws.

Key Responsibilities

  1. Advising on marketing and innovation projects, including compliance with advertising law, consumer law, ASAI guidance, laws relating to influencers and darkening market obligations under the Public Health (Alcohol) Act.
  2. Supporting Diageo Ireland commercial teams with customer agreements, joint business plans and a broad range of commercial projects.
  3. Advising on digital and data protection issues as part of the initiatives undertaken by the Digital Transformation Team.
  4. Advising on key ESG projects and supporting the business in fulfilling Society 2030 goals.

About You

  1. At least 1 year experience in a top law firm and/or sophisticated corporate legal department. Experience of the FMCG sector useful, but not essential.
  2. Qualified solicitor or barrister with excellent academic credentials.
  3. Excellent legal analysis and drafting skills.
  4. A skilled advisor, negotiator and team player who can actively work with the businesses to engineer pragmatic solutions to a wide range of challenges, while balancing the need to comply with all legal, regulatory and internal policy requirements.
