Fast-growing Business In-house Legal Role Bedfordshire
Looking for your first in-house legal role? Or ready to take the next step as a Legal Counsel?
This market-leading business has grown rapidly in recent years, both organically and through major acquisitions. They're now looking for a Junior Legal Counsel to join their close-knit, highly supportive in-house legal team.
This is a rare chance to step into a broad, business-facing role where no two days are the same. You'll work directly with senior lawyers and stakeholders across the business, taking on a mix of:
Litigation: managing disputes from small claims through to more complex matters.
Commercial contracts: drafting and negotiating a wide range of agreements.
Business-critical projects: supporting strategic initiatives, advising on ad-hoc legal and compliance issues, and contributing to cross-functional projects.
You'll be mentored by experienced senior lawyers who are invested in developing your skills and helping you grow your in-house legal career in a fast-paced, flat-structured environment.
About you
Flexible on PQE and qualification - this could suit an NQ Solicitor, Legal Executive, Barrister or experienced Paralegal.
Some exposure to litigation or commercial contracts is helpful, but not essential.
A practical, proactive approach and desire to learn in a varied in-house role.
This is an exciting time to join a growing business where you'll have real impact, visibility with senior leaders, and the chance to take ownership of your work.
BCL Legal is an equal opportunities employer.
