You will provide tender support, review, negotiate and finalise a range of contractual documents.

You will work independently and directly with the leadership of the business (within the framework of the legal team). You will also support with the appointment of consultants and contractors, giving advice on dispute avoidance and dispute management and providing ongoing general legal and commercial support with discrete ad hoc legal matters.

As you will support a wide range of internal clients, including senior management, you will be expected to demonstrate confident, effective communication and influencing skills, while also being able to quickly develop positive working relationships with the business. Our professional team is very busy, and we pride ourselves on being able to work to challenging timescales and balance conflicting priorities while still being friendly, supportive, and approachable. You will be able to work with minimum supervision, and your methodical and organised approach will enable you to be flexible when needed and respond positively to the inevitable changes that arise. You will be expected to demonstrate initiative and the ability to work independently, but recognise when to escalation matters. What you'll receive A combined pension contribution of up to 20%. Career progression and professional development opportunities. 25 days' holiday rising to 28 with length of service. The opportunity to sell up to five days of holiday every year. The opportunity to buy up to ten days of holiday each year (subject to conditions). A healthcare package that allows you to claim back healthcare costs. Life assurance of up to eight times your salary. The opportunity to lease a new electric car through salary sacrifice (subject to conditions). Cashback and discounts from more than 3,000 retailers. One paid volunteering day each year. Enhanced family leave and pay arrangements. Access toan interactive health and wellbeing platform. Support from trainedmental health first aiders.
