Senior Legal Counsel (Corporate)

London

Your new company
An international market leader in the corporate hospitality space, with HQ in London. Award-winning across multiple categories, the business is expanding further through acquisition. This family-owned organisation offers excellent career progression prospects and a culture that values work-life balance.

Your new role
A corporate Senior Legal Counsel position reporting to the Head of Corporate. Working closely with the growing Deal Team, you will lead on corporate M&A transactions, JV negotiations and occasional reorganisation work, while ensuring corporate governance compliance. The role will involve periodic travel, and will entail two days per week in the London office.

What you'll need to succeed
You will be a qualified lawyer (3+ PQE as a guide) with a sustained focus on corporate transactional matters. You must have led corporate M&A processes and be able to manage stakeholders at different levels of the business. Candidates from smaller firms that are more likely to have led M&A transactions are actively encouraged to apply. This is a team with excellent camaraderie and a down-to-earth approach, so candidates must fit the ethos of the legal function. You'll need to get to the London offices twice a week, and be ready for occasional international travel.

What you'll get in return
You will gain excellent levels of responsibility and have a career path set in front of you. The role promises high-quality corporate work in a familial in-house environment. The position will pay a competitive salary, bonus and an excellent package, alongside the ability to work from anywhere in the world up to eight weeks per year.
