Job description

Legal Counsel 0 - 2 PQE – Office-Based (Edge of the Peak District)

Are you living in the Peak District or happy to relocate there? Are you a commercially minded lawyer looking for your next challenge in a fast-paced, global business? We are seeking a Legal Counsel to join a dynamic in-house team on the edge of the stunning Peak District – a role that will see you fully immersed in the business, working onsite five days a week.

This is an exciting opportunity to work for a major UK-headquartered PLC with a diverse portfolio of brands, where no two days are the same. You’ll be involved in:

• Drafting, reviewing and negotiating a wide range of commercial agreements (including IT, supply chain, licensing, marketing and e-commerce).
• Advising on IP, regulatory, and promotional compliance.
• Supporting on M&A activity and managing smaller transactions.
• Working closely with multiple teams across the business to provide pragmatic, commercial legal advice.

We’re looking for a qualified solicitor with strong commercial contracts experience, excellent communication skills, and the ability to thrive in a fast-moving, ever-evolving environment.

This is a rare opportunity to combine top-quality work with a lifestyle location – ideal for anyone who loves the outdoors and wants the Peak District on their doorstep.

If you’re ambitious, collaborative, and ready to take your in-house career to the next level and happy to be in the office full time, we’d love to hear from you.
