Responsibilities
* Provide practical, commercial advice to colleagues dealing with disputes involving both individuals and small businesses. The role is advisory rather than contentious, but a strong understanding of the litigation process will be key to supporting sound decision-making.
* As the organisation's first in-house lawyer, shape how legal support is delivered, embed best practice, and act as a trusted adviser to teams across the business. Manage external legal relationships where needed.
About You
* Qualified solicitor or barrister with strong experience in dispute resolution, regulatory law or litigation.
* Background in a regulated sector, ideally energy, would be a distinct advantage.
* Excellent communicator, able to give clear, pragmatic advice to non-lawyers.
* Commercially aware, with the ability to balance legal risk against practical outcomes.
* Proactive and adaptable, motivated to contribute in a part-time capacity.
What’s on Offer
* Flexible part-time role (3-4 days per week).
* Opportunity to be the first in-house lawyer and shape the role.
* Interesting, values-driven work with exposure to complex and meaningful issues.
* A collaborative and supportive environment where your contribution will be highly visible.
