Nuneaton, Warwickshire, United Kingdom Barker Morris Legal Search Full time
Job Title: Head of Legal

We are seeking an experienced Head of Legal to join our UK legal team at a dynamic, private equity-backed international healthcare business. This is a maternity cover role, with the potential for extension beyond 12 months.

About the Company

Our client is a leading provider of medical imaging services, with a strong presence in the UK market. They offer a range of diagnostic services, including MRI and CT scans, and have a reputation for delivering high-quality patient care.

The Role

As Head of Legal, you will be responsible for overseeing all legal matters within the company, providing strategic legal guidance to senior management, and ensuring legal compliance across all business activities. This role requires strong leadership capabilities, with the ability to handle a diverse range of legal issues.

Key Responsibilities

  • Contract Management & Negotiation: Lead the drafting, review, and negotiation of complex commercial agreements, including high-value contracts with vendors, customers, and partners.
  • Strategic Legal Advice: Serve as the primary legal advisor to the UK executive team and board of directors, providing expert legal counsel on matters related to corporate governance, mergers and acquisitions (M&A), intellectual property, employment law, property, and construction law.
  • Leadership & Management: Lead and manage the legal department, including recruitment, training, and development of legal staff, setting departmental goals, objectives, and operational procedures.

Your Profile

We are looking for an experienced lawyer with 8+ years PQE in a regulated environment, with broad expertise across several legal areas. Experience in property, construction, and commercial/corporate law is particularly desirable. Candidates with experience in healthcare or similarly regulated industries are encouraged to apply.

This role also involves managing a Legal Counsel and a Legal Apprentice, so previous people management experience is beneficial. Given the company's rapid growth, there is a strong possibility that this contract could be extended beyond the initial 12-month term.
