A highly recognised retailer just outside FTSE 100 is looking for a Senior Commercial Counsel with procurement experience to join their legal team.
As a senior member of the commercial team, your core responsibilities will be to take the lead in terms of their several thousand, high value supplier agreements as well as advise upon, draft and negotiate commercial contracts that are critical to the business. You will also be encouraged to liaise with directors on a regular basis and get involved in the wider remit of the team including providing legal advice on a range of issues from disputes to addressing stakeholder concerns and adding value where ever possible to the business. Ideal candidates will be commercially minded as you will be encouraged to form excellent relationships with the company’s different business units and support lawyers across the international group.
My client is looking for a commercial lawyer with a minimum of 6 years post qualified experience. Previous experience with procurement agreements and goods and services is highly valued and previous in-house experience either within a business or in terms of secondments is essential. Ideal candidates will thrive in a fast paced environment and be a strong team player when under pressure. This is an excellent opportunity for a senior lawyer to help shape the commercial team and be a significant player for one of the most recognised brands in the UK.
