The role requires an ability to get up to speed with new areas of the law as the team deals with a very wide range of legal issues. The Senior Solicitor will use their legal knowledge and experience to improve the Funds internal processes.
You will generally manage your own portfolio of legal files (often on important new funding initiatives and partnerships) working in a highly collaborative, collegiate and supportive team, where the sharing of legal know how and continuous improvement is highly valued.
As Senior Solicitor, you will be working in a Legal team of 14 colleagues. The role does not include any line management responsibilities but it does have matrix management responsibilities for more junior members of the team (Solicitors, paralegals and Legal officer).
Strong general commercial legal experience is essential. Experience working in an in-house or private practice environment in the UK with a varied workload and wide range of clients and customers would be ideal, as would experience of public law and advising public bodies.
