Job description

Overview

Wessex Internet is an award-winning, fast-growing broadband provider revolutionising rural connectivity across the Southwest. As we expand into the New Forest, Wiltshire, and South & West Dorset, we're looking for a driven legal professional to join our internal Legal team and play a key role in our network rollout.

In this vital position, you’ll lead on securing the wayleaves, easements, and leases that enable us to deliver full fibre broadband to rural communities. From negotiating with landowners and solicitors to supporting our Rural Planning team with expert guidance, you'll be at the heart of our mission to connect more homes and businesses—faster and smarter.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Lead negotiations and completion of wayleaves, easements, and leases for our fibre network
  • Oversee the progress of bespoke wayleave agreements and ensure timely completions
  • Negotiate directly with solicitors acting for landowners
  • Support and guide Rural Planners on land access and legal queries
  • Assist with Land Registry queries when needed

What We’re Looking For

  • A qualified solicitor, legal executive, or candidate with equivalent experience (minimum 2 years PQE)
  • Solid understanding of property law (knowledge of the Electronic Communications Code is a plus)
  • Strong negotiation skills and attention to detail
  • Excellent communication and organisational abilities

What We Offer

  • Salary up to £45,000, dependent on experience
  • 25 days holiday + bank holidays, with the option to buy/sell up to 5 days
  • Private medical insurance, life assurance & income protection
  • Cycle to Work & Tech purchase schemes
  • Enhanced family leave policies
  • Staff broadband discount (75%)
  • High street discounts on 100+ brands
  • Summer & Christmas team socials
  • Career development opportunities - Whether you want to lead a team or learn new skills, we’ll support your growth in our fast-moving business

If you're ready to help shape the future of rural broadband and want to be part of a fast-paced, purpose-driven team, apply now and join Wessex Internet — where we’re building more than networks; we’re building futures.
