Legal Counsel - Global brand

BCL Legal

Job Description

An exciting opportunity has arisen for a Legal Counsel to join a market-leading, globally recognised organisation operating at the forefront of a highly regulated, technology-driven sector. This position offers truly global exposure, supporting a business with an international footprint on a wide range of high-quality legal matters. The work is notably varied, spanning commercial contracts, regulatory and compliance issues, marketing and promotional advisory, as well as involvement in bespoke and strategic projects.

The Role

You will join a large, well-established legal team, working closely with experienced colleagues and senior stakeholders across the business. The role combines technical legal work with commercial input, advising on complex, multi-jurisdictional matters in a fast-paced environment.

Key areas of focus include:
  • Drafting and negotiating a broad range of commercial and technology-focused agreements
  • Advising on regulatory and compliance frameworks across multiple jurisdictions
  • Supporting marketing and advertising initiatives from a legal perspective
  • Contributing to bespoke projects and strategic business initiatives
  • Providing pragmatic, commercially focused advice on legal risk
Why This Role Stands Out
  • Work for a leader in its field with a strong international presence
  • Exposure to complex, cross-border legal matters
  • A genuinely broad role beyond pure contracts
  • Operate within a tech-forward business at the cutting edge of its industry
  • Be part of a collaborative, sizeable legal team with strong internal support
About You
  • UK-qualified solicitor with solid commercial/corporate training
  • Experience advising on commercial contracts and general business matters
  • Strong analytical skills with a pragmatic, solutions-focused approach
  • Able to manage competing priorities in a dynamic environment
  • Confident communicator with the ability to build relationships across the business
Location & Working Pattern

The role is commutable from Cheshire and Staffordshire, with a hybrid working model of three days per week in the office.
