  5. Assist the Head of Legal with the investigation, management, and resolution of disputes, including coordinating with external legal counsel when necessary.
  6. Help manage the company's property portfolio, reviewing commercial leases and licenses to occupy, and working with external counsel as required.
  7. Offer general support to the Head of Legal in meeting the objectives of the Legal Team.
  8. Apply strong legal and commercial judgment, offering clear recommendations on the best course of action to stakeholders.
  9. Communicate effectively with minimal use of legal jargon to ensure clarity.
  10. Provide prompt legal support in response to requests.
  11. Manage multiple projects simultaneously.
  12. Minimize the impact of legal issues and promote early resolution.
  13. Ensure your efforts align with the team's performance goals.
  14. Consistently meet time, cost, and quality expectations of clients.
  15. Use logical reasoning and data-driven evidence to influence others and support your viewpoints.
  16. A proven track record of drafting and negotiating commercial contracts.

Desirable Qualifications:

  1. Experience of handling a broad range of legal queries, for example, data protection or intellectual property.

Working Arrangements:

  1. This role offers hybrid working (4 days on-site, 1-day WFH per week).
  2. Flexible working (with core hours to be upheld).
