Senior Legal Counsel (12 month FTC)
London | Hybrid
I am working with a fast-growing, tech-led business operating internationally that is looking to hire a Senior Legal Counsel on a 12 month fixed-term contract to cover maternity leave, with potential to extend.
This is a broad in-house role with real autonomy, working closely with senior stakeholders across the business and supporting continued growth.
The role
You will support the business across a wide range of commercial and corporate matters, working as a key member of a small legal team.
Key responsibilities include:
• Drafting and negotiating a wide range of commercial and technology agreements
• Advising on SaaS agreements, MSAs, DPAs, NDAs, reseller and vendor contracts
• Supporting sales, product and commercial teams on client contracts and RFPs
• Managing contract workflows and improving legal processes
• Updating templates and legal playbooks
• Advising on data protection and regulatory issues
• Supporting on corporate, governance and employment matters
• Working closely with risk, compliance, finance, tech and product teams
About you
This role will suit someone who enjoys operating in a fast-paced environment and being close to the business.
You are likely to be:
• UK qualified solicitor with around 6+ years PQE
• Experienced in drafting and negotiating complex commercial and technology contracts
• Comfortable working across a broad in-house remit rather than a narrow specialism
• Confident managing stakeholders and working autonomously
• Ideally already working in-house within tech, fintech, SaaS or a scale-up environment
• Familiar with data protection and privacy matters
• Experience working with financial institutions is a plus but not essential
Why apply:
• Senior, high-trust role with genuine autonomy
• International, high-growth business
• Broad and interesting work across multiple jurisdictions
• Hybrid working
• Strong culture and benefits
