Being part of the Rocco Forte Hotels group means having an ambition to excel. We share a commitment to the highest standards of service and an understanding that excellence in service requires anticipation, knowledge, judgement and sensitivity.
Each of us conveys the flair, insight and genuine care of the Forte family and we strive to create an experience that, like our hotels, is unique, unfussy and that reflects the true spirit of the city.
Your key responsibilities
We strive to create an experience that, like our hotels, is unique, un fussy and that reflects the true spirit of the city. It is our delight to bring the best of the city to our guests, and through our insight and experience, guide their experience of the city.
We are seeking a proactive and commercially-minded business lawyer to support our global luxury hospitality operations and growth of the brand.
This is a new role to work with the General Counsel following the creation of the in-house legal function approximately 2 years ago.
The ideal candidate will be intelligent and diligent with a curious, can-do approach; a positive attitude; and sound judgement.
They will collaborate closely with senior leadership, development and commercial teams, and external stakeholders to deliver pragmatic, solution-orientated legal advice.
This role requires strong written and communication skills and an ability to work cross-functionally in an international environment.
The workload is varied and no two days are the same, but the job is likely to involve the following:
Commercial Contracts
* Drafting, reviewing and negotiating a wide range of commercial contracts including development agreements, licensing and technical services agreements, vendor contracts, SaaS/cloud IT service agreements, marketing/PR/sales contracts, hotel management agreements, branded residences documentation, development leasing and brand partnerships.
* Preparing standard terms and conditions for use by various operational business functions.
Corporate Governance
* Drafting board and shareholder resolutions and other shareholder/investor relations documentation.
* Drafting and updating corporate policies and procedures.
Other
* Advising in relation to ad hoc issues relating to employment, data/privacy and other operational issues.
* Liaising with external counsel (domestic and international) to obtain advice and to communicate that advice effectively within the business.
* Monitoring relevant legal developments and advising the business on emerging risks or opportunities.
Who we are looking for
The successful candidate is likely to be a mid-senior lawyer with approximately 4-8 years’ post-qualification experience, ideally with either varied high quality private practice and / or in-house experience.
They will possess strong technical skills and broad commercial contract/commercial law experience.
Exposure to the luxury sector, hospitality, real estate or branded residences sectors is useful but not essential. International experience would be useful but not essential.
