Senior Legal Counsel


This leading consumer manufacturing business now has a need for a senior commercial lawyer or corporate/commercial lawyer to join the business and take responsibility for a wide range of complex commercial negotiations and agreements.


The Opportunity


The business is both a B2C and B2B business and as a result, you will negotiate both more consumer focussed contracts as well as manufacturing, supply and distribution contracts. An understanding of IP, competition, data privacy, logistics and warehousing would be useful, as would any experience or knowledge of consumer law. The role will be responsible for resolving issues which arise in existing commercial relationships and building relationships with key stakeholders.


The role will be a key part of a small but well-integrated and collegiate legal team, offering flexibility along with quality work and the opportunity to work closely with the business.


About You


You will need a general commercial contracts background ideally gained in-house, although commercial experience in private practice would also be considered and a corporate/commercial background would also be useful. Procurement and supply contracts experience is also key, as is any experience with supply chain and distribution. The ability to negotiate complex contracts sometimes within a regulatory environment is also key.


Strong interpersonal skills, a commercial approach and can-do attitude will work very well. Excellent communication skills and the ability to navigate sensitively through highly complex contracts and negotiations is also essential.
