General Counsel, UK Solicitor

About

We are the creator-entrepreneur holding company redefining how modern business is built. At its core sits a globally recognised Media platform, powering an Incubator that launches founder-led ventures and a Fund investing in the next generation of purpose-driven brands. Together, these three pillars create a flywheel of influence, innovation, and enterprise value, building companies that make people healthier, happier, and more ambitious.

The Mission

We're looking for a General Counsel who is more than a lawyer - a strategic business partner who brings clarity, confidence, and calm to growth.

You'll own all legal across the group from the Holding Company IP to our Media, Inchubator, and Fund pillars - turning legal from an external cost into an internal advantage. You'll sit beside the deal team and leadership, structuring ventures, simplifying contracts, and building trust with founders, investors, and partners.

Your role is to hold hands with the business: to find smart, ethical, creative ways to move fast and stay protected.

What You'll Do

  • Lead all legal across Steven Holdings, setting structure, clarity, and process for the group and being a trusted advisor and first port of call for executives
  • Streamline legal operations - consolidate partners, cut external spend, and build internal capability.
  • Design scalable frameworks for the Incubator: simple, founder-friendly deal templates and playbooks that reduce friction and risk.
  • Oversee Fund transactions, leading light-touch, high-trust minority investments.
  • Shape company structures and governance as we expand globally.
  • Protect brand and IP across media, content, personal brand and product ventures.
  • Be part of the deal team, meeting founders and entrepreneurs, helping them feel at ease and confident in working with us.

What Success Looks Like

  • operates with clear, consistent, scalable legal structures.
  • Founder-friendly frameworks make our incubator the partner of choice.
  • External legal costs fall, deal speed rises.
  • IP and brand assets are fully protected.
  • The business feels confident and supported, not constrained

Who You Are

  • A qualified lawyer with experience across investing, venture, media, or brand-led businesses.
  • Commercially minded - you think like a businessperson and a lawyer.
  • Pragmatic and human - you speak plain English, not legalese.
  • Curious, ethical, and confident to debate.
  • A natural relationship-builder with a strong network of expert advisors.
  • You bring both rigour and warmth - someone founders and investors genuinely enjoy working with.

The Opportunity

Join a company that's building a new kind of business ecosystem - one where creativity, commerce, and community meet. As our first General Counsel, you'll create the foundation for a global brand that lasts for decades.
