Legal Counsel
This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Legal Counsel based in United Kingdom.
As Legal Counsel, you will provide hands-on legal support across corporate, commercial, intellectual property, and international matters. You’ll work closely with the business to identify legal risks and provide practical, commercially focused advice. The role involves supporting cross-border activities across the US, UK, EU, and potentially other international jurisdictions. You’ll independently manage day-to-day legal matters while knowing when to bring in specialist external counsel. You’ll also help establish and improve legal processes as the business continues to grow. This is an opportunity to work in an international, technology-focused environment where legal expertise directly supports business operations and product development.
Accountabilities
- Provide day-to-day legal support across a broad range of business activities.
- Advise on corporate and commercial matters, including drafting, reviewing, and negotiating contracts.
- Support cross-border and international legal matters across multiple jurisdictions, including the US, UK, and EU.
- Independently manage routine legal matters and provide practical, business-oriented advice.
- Identify complex, specialist, or jurisdiction-specific legal issues requiring external expertise.
- Select, engage, and coordinate external legal counsel as needed.
- Work closely with internal stakeholders and external counterparties to support business objectives while managing legal risks.
- Help develop and implement practical legal processes that support efficient business operations.
