Job description

Sacco Mann is working alongside a leading international global distributor of infrastructure products and services to diversified end-markets including gas utilities, downstream and industrial, upstream production and midstream pipeline as well as green energy and decarbonization. The legal department operates in a global capacity and an opportunity now exists for a commercial lawyer to work in a high profile, fast moving and dynamic role which can be offered on a hybrid basis out of their HQ in West Yorkshire.

The ideal candidate will have 3-8 years PQE gained in a highly commercial environment and will be an individual who enjoys the negotiation process and knows how to hold the line with customers and suppliers while maintaining a professional sales presence. This is a highly visible role and offers significant autonomy as well as access to key stakeholders where you'll have demonstrable ability to manage multiple priorities and will not shy away from new and complex challenges.

Reporting into the Head of Legal International and Global Compliance Officer, you'll take responsibility for:

1. Drafting, reviewing, negotiating and advising on a full suite of commercial contract documents including sale and purchase agreements, master framework agreements, local agreements under MFA, consultancy, agency, distribution, storage, license, IT, flow down, wind down and exit agreements, settlement letters, waiver letters, NDAs and standard terms and conditions.
2. Assisting with real estate matters including lease and license documents, rent reviews and property exits including dilapidations.
3. Assisting with human resource matters, company secretary, and some international cross-border transactions.

The HQ is based within an easy commute from Leeds; however, given the international nature of this role, office presence is required on an infrequent basis and remote working is offered in the main. Competitive salary and generous bonus on offer along with benefits package.
