This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially minded lawyer to join a collaborative and highly regarded in-house legal team, supporting a specialist data intelligence division that sits at the heart of the organisation's operations.
The successful individual will act as the lead lawyer supporting the data intelligence business, reporting into the Head of Legal, and will work closely with commercial leads, business development stakeholders and senior management on a broad range of data-focused commercial matters. The workload is expected to be weighted approximately 80% towards data-related contracts and advisory work, with the remaining 20% covering wider commercial legal matters.
The role will involve drafting, reviewing and negotiating contracts relating to the sale, licensing and use of data products, advising on data privacy considerations, and supporting the development of new products and services. There will also be exposure to wider commercial, compliance and regulatory issues, including competition law considerations arising within a trade association environment.
This opportunity will suit a lawyer who enjoys working closely with the business, is naturally curious, commercially astute, and comfortable drilling down into facts and context in order to provide pragmatic legal advice. The organisation is looking for someone who operates in an open and collaborative way, is happy to sense-check decisions with senior colleagues, and enjoys being embedded within a fast-moving commercial environment.
Applicants are likely to be able to demonstrate:
A minimum of 2 years' PQE gained in-house and/or in private practice
Strong commercial contract drafting and negotiation experience
Familiarity with data privacy, IT/IP and competition law considerations
The ability to build strong working relationships with business stakeholders
Strong communication skills and sound commercial judgement
A proactive, collaborative and detail-oriented approach
Due to the ASAP start date, applicants are likely to be available immediately or at short notice.
For further information, and a confidential conversation, please apply to Jennifer Pike.
