Commercial Legal Counsel (4–6 PQE) | Legal Tech & Automation | London
Are you a commercially focused lawyer looking for a role where you can have real impact beyond contract drafting?
We're working with an innovative, US-headquartered technology company that's investing in the growth of its legal team. This is an excellent opportunity for a lawyer with 4–6 years' PQE to join a fast-moving international business where you'll partner closely with commercial teams, embrace legal technology, and help shape how legal services are delivered.
What you'll be doing:
You'll support the business on a wide range of commercial matters, negotiating and advising on customer, supplier and technology agreements while working closely with Sales, Product and Operations.
Alongside your commercial legal work, you'll play a key role in improving the way the legal function operates. Whether it's refining templates, developing playbooks, implementing AI-enabled solutions or streamlining processes, you'll help drive a more efficient and scalable legal service.
