In-House Commercial Litigation Legal Counsel

Up to Β£70,000 + Benefits

Are you a Litigation Solicitor looking to move in-house without leaving disputes work behind?

We're partnering with a highly successful multinational business to recruit a Legal Counsel to join its established legal team in Yorkshire.

This is a fantastic opportunity to retain a meaningful litigation caseload while broadening your expertise across commercial contracts, compliance, data protection and regulatory matters.

  • Work directly with an experienced General Counsel
  • Gain exposure to high-profile commercial and strategic legal matters
  • Significant stakeholder interaction across Finance, HR, Trading, Operations, IT and Marketing
  • Varied workload covering disputes, contracts, investigations and compliance
  • Excellent platform for someone looking to build a long-term in-house career
  • On-site parking

The role will involve:

  • Managing commercial disputes, supplier issues and debt recovery matters.
  • Advising on litigation strategy and dispute resolution.
  • Drafting and negotiating commercial contracts, including supply, distribution, logistics and technology agreements.
  • Supporting internal investigations and risk management matters.
  • Advising on GDPR, AML, sanctions and wider compliance issues.
  • Delivering pragmatic, commercially focused legal advice to stakeholders across the business.

We're keen to speak with solicitors who have experience in commercial litigation or disputes and are looking for a broader business-facing role, whether currently in private practice or already in-house.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a stable, family-owned international group where legal is viewed as a genuine commercial partner to the business.
