What you'll do:
As Legal Counsel based in Manchester, you will play a pivotal role in supporting high-value corporate transactions within a dynamic multinational environment. Your day-to-day responsibilities will see you collaborating closely with senior leaders across departments as well as external advisors. You will be instrumental in drafting transaction documents for mergers and acquisitions, managing due diligence processes through virtual datarooms, negotiating contracts that safeguard organisational interests, and ensuring compliance with evolving regulatory frameworks.
What you bring:
To excel as Legal Counsel in this interim role based in Manchester, you will bring proven experience from either an in-house setting or private practice where you have supported complex corporate transactions. Your background should include hands-on involvement in drafting transaction documents for mergers & acquisitions or similar deals.
What sets this company apart:
This organisation stands out for its commitment to fostering an inclusive workplace where every voice is valued. The legal team operates at the centre of major international projects-offering exposure rarely found elsewhere-while maintaining a genuine focus on employee wellbeing through flexible working arrangements. Here you'll find a culture built on mutual respect: colleagues support one another's growth through open communication channels and regular knowledge-sharing sessions.
