Legal Counsel - Global Tech Company - 1 to 5 years PQE - Glasgow (Hybrid Working)
Are you a junior solicitor ready to take your first step in-house or are you working in a legal counsel role and would be interested in a new challenge? This is an exciting opportunity to join a collegiate legal team supporting a UK-headquartered, multinational software and technology organisation operating in regulated markets. This role is based in their Glasgow.
This is a rare opportunity to join a growing, international tech company where the legal team is embedded at the heart of commercial decision-making. You’ll work closely with senior leaders, influence strategy, and gain exposure across a broad range of corporate and commercial matters all within a supportive and collaborative environment.
Why this role?
* True in-house exposure – work directly with executive leadership and operational teams
* Broad commercial remit – from technology and licensing to procurement, governance and compliance
* Structured support and mentoring – ideal for someone transitioning from private practice
* Hybrid and flexible working – genuine flexibility around working patterns
* Growing international business
This role would particularly suit a junior solicitor with experience in corporate, commercial, banking or corporate governance work, who is keen to broaden into commercial contracts. The team has a structure that will enable training in commercial law and commercial contracts.
The Opportunity
The legal function plays a key advisory role across the business. You will:
* Support the review and negotiation of a wide variety of commercial agreements, including services agreements, supply arrangements, technology and licensing documentation, and framework contracts
* Advise internal stakeholders on regulatory and compliance matters including data protection, competition, governance and risk
* Contribute to corporate transactions, due diligence and internal process improvements
* Help develop templates, playbooks and internal guidance to streamline commercial operations
* Partner closely with sales, procurement, finance and operational teams
You’ll gain exposure to public sector contracting, software solutions, and international commercial activity — making this an excellent platform for developing as a well-rounded in-house lawyer.
About You
You will be:
* A qualified solicitor in the UK
* Trained in corporate, commercial or company secretarial work (private practice, public sector or in-house)
* Commercially minded and curious about how businesses operate
* Comfortable engaging with non-legal colleagues and explaining risk in practical terms
* Organised and adaptable in a fast-moving environment
* Previous exposure to technology, software, procurement or regulated sectors would be advantageous — but is not essential.
The Culture & Benefits
This is a business that genuinely values flexibility and inclusion. They offer:
* Hybrid working with flexibility on hours and working patterns
* A strong commitment to diversity and merit-based progression
* Structured learning and leadership development opportunities
* Health & wellbeing support including employee assistance programmes
