London (Hybrid – 3 days office)
TT Electronics, a global electronics manufacturer powering everything from satellites to stairlifts (yes, even the Mars Rover!), is looking for a proactive, commercially minded Group Legal Counsel to join their small but high‑impact legal team.
With a new CEO, renewed momentum, and a focus on growth – including an active M&A agenda – this is an exceptional opportunity to step into a broad, influential, high‑visibility role at a UK‑listed PLC.
Why TT Electronics?
* A close‑knit, high‑energy legal team with real influence
* Exposure to the full legal spectrum: commercial, M&A, compliance, governance, IP, litigation
* A business with real engineering expertise and a compelling growth story
* Head office relocated to London (Bank) in 2026 – bringing new energy into the organisation
* Genuine opportunity to shape legal strategy and partner directly with leadership
This is the perfect role for someone wanting to move in‑house or take the next step up in responsibility – breadth, ownership, and variety come as standard.
The Role
As Group Legal Counsel – Europe, you’ll report directly to the Group General Counsel & Company Secretary and act as a trusted advisor across TT’s UK and EU operations. You’ll handle:
Core Responsibilities
* Leading on commercial contracting across customers, suppliers, consultancy and distribution agreements
* Supporting and leading elements of M&A transactions, including diligence, execution and integration
* Supporting compliance across data protection, export controls, anti‑bribery, and wider regulatory mattersManaging litigation and disputes
* Contributing to strong corporate governance across EU
* Advising on IP considerations (primarily soft IP)
* Partnering with business leaders as a genuine “sounding board”
* Liaising with top‑tier external counsel
* Providing training across sites – including UK travel and occasional trips to Asia
You’ll work closely with a small, agile legal team including the GC, a Deputy CoSec, a US‑qualified lawyer, and your counterpart in the UK/Asia region.
What We’re Looking For
* England & Wales qualified solicitor
* 4+ PQE (sweet spot: 4-8 PQE)
* Strong background in M&A (either in practice or in‑house)
* Experience in commercial contracts with an interest to learn more
* Ability to communicate complex issues simply and effectively
* A collaborative, positive personality – cultural fit is key
* Someone who loves rolling up their sleeves and getting stuck in
* No sector experience needed (but always a bonus)
This is a role for someone who wants variety, visibility, and meaningful impact – not a siloed specialist seat.
Working Pattern & Environment
* 3 days/week in the office
* Travel to UK sites encouraged (4-6 times per year)
* Join a vibrant head office of ~20 people with real cross‑functional collaboration
