About the team We're on the hunt for a Commercial Counsel to join our Commercial legal team's Technology and Procurement function ("Vendor/Tech")and report to our Head of Corporate & Commercial. In partnership with our in-country legal teams, the Vendor/Tech team advises on matters that keep the lights on across our markets and are integral to facilitating market-leading initiatives. Whether it's negotiating a deal to bring innovative technology into the business to support our cutting edge engineering team, managing the roll-out of highly-integrated SaaS platforms across multiple interfaces in many jurisdictions, or supporting the business with BAU contracts, we work closely with our business counterparts to make things happen. Our responsibilities include technology procurement, AI procurement, payment services provider contracts, marketing and advertising procurement, commercial disputes, material outsourcings, strategic projects in vendor management, assisting with policy and handbook drafting and more. About the role As a Commercial Counsel , you will consistently provide high-quality, risk-based legal advice across a range of commercial areas. You will build relationships of trust with stakeholders across the business, acting as a true partner to unlock opportunities and manage risk. This is a hybrid role that will require you to work from our London HQ for a minimum of 3 days a week. What you'll be doing Advise on a wide range of ad hoc legal matters, from off the shelf SaaS agreements through to complex outsourcings of entire business units. You're comfortable with the uncomfortable - whether that's taking English law principles you know and collaborating with our external experts to work out the French law equivalent, or working in an entirely new area of law. Represent Legal in working groups and steering committees to find solutions to new challenges - whether that's a change of law, a strategic project or the implementation of a new tech product. You'll own the legal risks and be responsible for collaborating to find solutions to them. Partner with stakeholders across Deliveroo, including Tech, Marketing, People, Finance and Supply Chain to provide pragmatic legal advice on strategic projects and procurement needs. Provide training and guidance to the business on a range of areas from AI risks to financial regulation. We'll upskill you on technical topics you're less familiar with, and you'll quickly find your areas of expertise. Prepare Executive / Signatory notes on contracts, explaining key risks in an appropriate way. Advocate for best practice and look for ways to improve our operations. We are building our first Legal Operations function, and every lawyer in the team can play a part in finding opportunities to work more efficiently and effectively. Requirements You are passionate about food, tech and innovation. You are highly motivated to find creative solutions - you don't take no for an answer. You are a proven team player and a developing leader. Even our most junior team members are given the opportunity to hone their leadership skills. You are a confident communicator - you're as happy describing risks to an exec team member as you are to a grad in the marketing team, and you adapt your style to suit. You are pragmatic and commercially minded - you're a true business partner. You have a growth mindset - in a business like ours, you're always learning. You are a qualified solicitor. You have an excellent academic record and experience providing commercial, strategic advice to international businesses. In-house experience is a big plus. You have experience in at least some of our core areas of responsibility, which include technology procurement, AI procurement, payment services provider contracts, marketing procurement, and material outsourcings. Why Deliveroo Our mission is to transform the way you shop and eat, bringing the neighbourhood to your door by connecting consumers, restaurants, shops and riders.

We are committed to diversity, equity and inclusion in all aspects of our hiring process. We recognise that some candidates may require adjustments to apply for a position or fairly participate in the interview process. If you require any adjustments, please don't hesitate to let us know.
