Shape the Future of Global Projects from the Inside Out
Are you a seasoned Construction Lawyer ready for your next big move? We're on the lookout for a sharp legal mind to join a thriving, forward-thinking company in Newcastle. As part of a compact, dynamic legal team, you'll be embedded in the business, playing a pivotal role in driving success and safeguarding operations across high-value international construction projects.
What You'll Be Doing:
Every day is different. From reviewing global project appointments to advising cross-functional teams, you'll be immersed in the business, helping shape projects from inception to delivery. Expect to:
- Draft, review and negotiate major project agreements and contracts.
- Advise stakeholders across the business on a wide variety of construction-related legal matters.
- Implement and refine legal risk management policies.
- Lead or support team management (depending on experience).
- Jump into wider legal challenges, from property and IPR to data protection and debt recovery.
- Contribute to strategic, business-wide legal initiatives.
Who We're Looking For:
A confident, capable, and collaborative Construction Lawyer with:
- 1+ years of post-qualification experience.
- Strong knowledge of construction law, especially relating to professional appointments and standard form contracts.
- Bonus points if you've worked in a consultancy or in-house with a client or contractor.
- A practical, solutions-focused mindset with top-tier communication skills.
- The ability to juggle complex projects and tight deadlines with confidence and clarity.
Why Join Us?
You won't be a cog in the machine. You'll be part of the engine, helping to drive major projects forward and playing a key role in a team that values impact, integrity, and innovation.
