Job Details

A rapidly growing technology company based in Brighton/Shoreham are seeking to hire their first Head of Legal. This will be a part time role (3 days per week) and will cover an extremely varied work load. The role will report directly to the board so will have immediate exposure to senior stakeholders and will be viewed as a very senior position.

This role will cover a number of areas but the main focus will be on the commercial side but there will be an expectation that you will get involved in M&A deals, employment and litigation matters and any ad-hoc legal projects that arise. 

As a qualified lawyer with at least 10 years PQE you will have strong commercial law experience ideally with some exposure to corporate law/M&A. You will have trained in a top city law firm and be comfortable managing senior stakeholders. This role will be very varied so you will need to have the willingness to get involved in multiple different projects. This is the first in-house legal role the company have hired so this is an excellent opportunity to make the role yours. 

For further information please contact Rebecca Garland via rg@barclaysimpson.com
