The Role

Hybrid (3-4 days from the office)

Reporting to and working closely with the Legal & Compliance Director and Senior Legal Counsel, both based in the UK, you will provide day-to-day legal support to the business, with a particular focus on commercial contracts.

  • Review contractual terms and help identify potential legal and commercial risks, escalating complex issues where appropriate.
  • Maintain and update contract templates, policies, playbooks and supporting documentation.
  • Assist with legal aspects of Requests for Proposals (RFPs) and Requests for Information (RFIs), including customer contract-related queries.

Data Protection & Compliance

  • Support the company's compliance efforts in relation to applicable data protection and privacy laws, including GDPR, UK GDPR, CCPA and relevant Canadian privacy legislation.
  • Assist with customer security, privacy and compliance questionnaires and related RFP responses.
  • Work with internal teams to support privacy policies and appropriate data-handling practices.

Intellectual Property

  • Assist with the protection and management of the company's intellectual property, including software, trademarks and copyrights.
  • Review intellectual property provisions in commercial, supplier and partner agreements, seeking guidance from senior colleagues where needed.

General Legal Support

  • Provide day-to-day legal support to internal stakeholders across Sales, Customer Success, Marketing, Service Support, HR and Finance.
  • Assist with contract interpretation and queries relating to contractual rights, obligations and potential risks.
  • Support the Legal team with a range of other legal matters, including employment law, intellectual property and data privacy.
  • Coordinate with external legal counsel as required.
  • Contribute to improving legal processes, workflows and documentation.

Requirements

  • Experience as a Paralegal, Legal Executive or in a similar legal role, with strong experience drafting, reviewing and supporting the negotiation of commercial contracts.
  • A legal qualification or relevant legal training is preferred.
  • Experience with a range of commercial agreements, such as NDAs, customer and supplier contracts, and other business agreements.
  • An understanding of general legal principles and an interest in developing knowledge of data protection and privacy regulations, including GDPR.
  • Experience in the technology or SaaS industry is an advantage but is not essential.
  • Strong attention to detail, organisation and the ability to manage competing priorities.
  • A proactive, practical approach to problem-solving and a willingness to learn and develop within a collaborative Legal team.
  • Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work effectively with stakeholders across different departments.
  • The ability to work independently on day-to-day tasks while recognising when to seek guidance or escalate more complex matters.
