  • Formulating and implementing policies and procedures to assist bid teams, quantity surveyors, and commercial managers.
  • Managing multiple intricate legal matters concurrently.

Essential Skills and Qualifications:

  • Qualified solicitor with 3-6 years of post-qualification experience.
  • Proficient in both contentious and non-contentious construction law.
  • Familiarity with standard construction contracts such as JCT, NEC, and FIDIC, as well as the ability to work with customized client agreements.
  • Litigation experience is advantageous.
  • Demonstrates integrity and discretion in all dealings.
  • Proactive and pragmatic approach to problem-solving.
  • Hands-on involvement with issues, providing constructive support and challenge to colleagues.

  • Experience working in-house within the Construction and Engineering sector or from a legal firm.

This role involves collaboration with key internal stakeholders, including the CEO, CFO, CCO, Executive Leadership Team Members, Department Heads, Procurement Teams, Bid Teams, Quantity Surveyors, and Commercial Managers. External contacts will include Regulatory Bodies, Government Authorities, Industry Associations, Customers, Suppliers, Partners, and Outside Legal Counsel.
