Southampton, Southampton, United Kingdom Womble Bond Dickinson Full time

We are seeking a Commercial Contracts Specialist to join our team at Womble Bond Dickinson. Our national commercial team brings together general commercial, digital, IP, energy and renewables, and projects and procurement teams to represent a range of FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 clients, public sector organisations, educational institutions, and industry bodies on high-profile business-critical projects and regulatory matters.


The team plays a vital role in helping clients build growth and success. Comprising sector specialists across a broad range of industries, including advanced manufacturing, life sciences, aerospace and defence, energy and renewables, transport and logistics, and international trade, our lawyers are located across our network of UK offices and include nationally recognised leaders in their field.


To support our enviable pipeline of projects, we have an opportunity for a 3+ to senior PQE commercial contracts lawyer to join the team. We advise on the full range of contractual arrangements associated with strategic projects and day-to-day business across a broad range of industries.


Key responsibilities will include advising on contract strategy, drafting and negotiation, data protection, and risk management. As part of the team, you will work closely with clients' in-house legal teams and provide an in-house style of support for businesses who don't have their own internal lawyers.


You will have the opportunity to work on large-scale industrial projects for multi-national corporations, as well as supporting rapidly expanding scale-up businesses and SMEs. You will also have the opportunity to help businesses in our region and across the UK break into new markets, particularly in the USA and Saudi Arabia.


To be successful in this role, you will need to have at least 3 years of post-qualified experience in commercial contracts as a UK (England, Wales or Scotland) Solicitor. You will also need to have demonstrated experience in a commercial environment, with the practical application of all aspects of contract law gained at a city or large regional firm, or from a suitable in-house position.


Expertise in complex and high-profile transactions, including supply chain management, procurement/outsourcing, research and development, and the supply of goods and services through a range of sales channels, is essential. You will also need to have the ability to deliver complex advice in a coherent and practical way that is easy for non-lawyers to understand.


As a Commercial Contracts Specialist, you will be part of a diverse group of professionals who believe in supporting one another while embracing creativity along the way. You will work closely with our multidisciplinary teams to provide a blend of City presence and local knowledge to foreign inward investors needing assistance in the UK.
