Legal & Compliance Lead - London

You could play a key role in supporting Saragossa through one of the most exciting stages of its growth.

Saragossa has recently taken investment and is entering a significant period of expansion, with plans to double its contracts over the next 24 months.

This is a hands-on, commercially minded opportunity for someone who enjoys operating in a fast-paced, growing environment. You'll manage the contracting process, navigate nuanced cases as they arise, advise on US classification rules and contracts, and work closely with stakeholders across the business.

You'll also manage two team members across the UK and USA, giving you the opportunity to make a meaningful impact both operationally and strategically.

You'll be responsible for:

• Taking ownership of the contracting and contractor onboarding process across the UK and USA.
• Managing contracts from an operational and commercial perspective, ensuring processes can support the company's continued growth.
• Handling complex and nuanced contractual cases as they arise.
• Advising on US contractor classification rules and contracts.
• Managing and supporting two team members across the UK and USA.
• Driving projects relating to contracts, compliance and contractor operations.
• Balancing a high volume of work with strong attention to detail and sound judgement.
• Working collaboratively with senior stakeholders while taking ownership of your area.

Unlike a traditional, highly structured legal role, this is an opportunity for someone who is commercial, pragmatic and comfortable working at pace.

We're particularly interested in candidates with experience within the recruitment industry, or someone who has worked in a similarly fast-moving, operational environment. A highly structured legal background alone is less likely to translate well into the role.

You'll also benefit from:

• Quarterly Operations Bonus plus Annual Bonus, with OTE based on targets.
• Hybrid and flexible working.
• Opportunity to work across both the UK and US markets.
• Travel to the USA a couple of times a year.
• The same benefits available across Saragossa, including incentive trips, Wellness Fund and Quarterlies.
• Clear progression opportunities within an expanding business, including potential routes towards Director of Compliance & Legal or a broader Head of role.
• The opportunity to build and develop a function that will be increasingly important as Saragossa continues to grow.

If you're looking for a role where you can own a function, make a genuine commercial impact and grow with a business that is scaling rapidly, we'd love to hear from you.
