At the same time as recruiting for a permanent Senior Legal Counsel for this large and well known global brand in the manufacturing/retail sector in Newcastle, we are also trying to find the team some cover over the next 6 months. The work here is mainly commercial contracts as well as the wider variety of legal work that crops up in the day-to-day running of an in-house legal function. The interim solicitor will need to be as self sufficient as possible. This is a job which is going suit an experienced in-house Solicitor with anywhere from 5 years PQE. The salary and package will be competitive - candidates who can start quickly (within the next few weeks) are encouraged to apply. Their hybrid policy is 3-days in the office and the other days from home if you'd prefer. For this particular role, candidates seeking to work remotely will be considered too. I was really impressed with what I heard about the job opportunity, team and culture in a meeting with the GC recently - this would be a great place to be and give the incoming person all kinds of exposure to a breadth of in-house work (very little legal work is outsourced in the UK business) and supervision of others. Please contact Adam Zdravkovic at Think Legal for further details about this job and a confidential chat.
