Our UK business continues to grow, and we are expanding our Legal team with the appointment of a Legal Adviser. This is an excellent opportunity to join a high-performing in-house function that enables strategic growth, supports complex customer and supplier relationships and helps the business deliver outstanding customer outcomes.
As we win new opportunities and broaden our customer engagements, we are strengthening our legal and contract management capability. We are looking for commercially minded lawyers who enjoy a fast-paced, customer-focused sales environment, exercise sound judgement and take a proactive, practical approach to legal advice.
Experience in financial services, the public sector, defence or AI and hyperscale business areas would be particularly valuable. In return, you will have the opportunity to develop your career within a collaborative and highly regarded team during a period of significant expansion.
What you’ll do
- Manage a varied portfolio of commercial matters
- Work closely with business colleagues
- Build expertise through increasingly complex customer, supplier and legal work
- Provide practical, commercially focused legal advice that supports business objectives while helping to identify and manage legal and commercial risk
- Draft, review and negotiate a range of customer and supplier agreements
- Support bids and commercial opportunities by advising on contractual frameworks, deal structure and risk allocation
- Develop effective working relationships with colleagues across sales, commercial, operations and other business functions
- Identify and assess legal issues, resolve matters within your remit and escalate significant or complex issues appropriately
- Help maintain and develop legal standards, policies, playbooks and training materials
- Support business-focused projects and deliver assigned work to agreed deadlines
- Share knowledge, apply best practice and contribute to continuous improvement across the Legal team and wider business
- Represent Computacenter and its values in your work with colleagues, customers and suppliers
