Example work will include drafting and negotiating commercial rights contracts, tenders, sponsorships, licencing, media, and digital.

The small nature of the legal department, and the global nature of the role and reach means that a wide variety of other work can, and will of course come across your desk.

CANDIDATE: There are some key criteria to be taken into consideration:

- A common law qualification is essential, as well as perfect working English.
- You’ll need at least 4+ PQE and a ceiling guideline (given it is a Legal Counsel role) is probably around 7 PQE.
- Important that you’ve had at least some exposure to working with, or within in an in-house legal department.
- Broad commercial contracts experience of international standard work, including within the sports and / or media world.
- High level knowledge across IP and TMT.
- It’s not essential that you love cricket, but that’s going to be a major pull factor if you do

If you think you can fulfil these criteria, please do contact us to discuss. We have a full job description to share.
