Full job description

Role: Head of Legal

Location: DFYNE HQ, 1 Forrest Gate, Uddingston, G71 5PW

Work Location: Onsite

About You:

Are you the kind of leader who lights up at the words “blank canvas” and “build it your way?” Do you love the thrill of fast growth, smart people, and big ambition? Are you ready to shape a Legal function that’s as modern, bold, and future focused as DFYNE itself.

You might be a perfect match if you get excited about creating structure, clarity, and confidence when none existed yesterday. You don’t just spot risks, you help the business move faster, smarter, and safer. You turn complexity into clarity and make legal feel like a partner, not a blocker. Ambiguity doesn’t scare you, it energises you. You influence with confidence, calm and credibility. Governance, ethics, and compliance matter to you as much as commercial outcomes.

If you’re looking for a role where you can shape the legal heartbeat of a fast growing company, influence decisions at the highest level, and build something genuinely special, you’ll feel right at home here.

About DFYNE:

A picture paints a thousand words… and we’re sure you don’t want to be sat here reading an essay of corporate “about us” spiel….Seriously, how’re you able to really get under the skin of what we’re about from a few words on a screen. So why don’t you have a look and see what we’re all about for yourself - www.dfyne.com

About the role - DFYNE Your Career:

First off, it’s best I introduce myself (person behind the keyboard here), it’s not the norm on a job role spec, but I feel it’s important you get introduced to who you may be working with for a long time early on. I’m Oscar, Founder and CEO at DFYNE.

I’m looking for someone who’s going to help us take DFYNE governance, ethics, and compliance processes to the next level.

The Head of Legal will be DFYNE’s senior legal authority, responsible for establishing the legal function, designable scalable frameworks, and providing strategic counsel across the business.

You will ensure DFYNE operates with strong governance, robust risk management, and compliant processes, whilst enabling speed, innovation, and commercial success. This is a foundational leadership role with the mandate to build and lead a high performing Legal team as the company grows, supporting DFYNE’s operations across the UK and international markets.

Attitude:

Commercially fearless.
Calm under pressure.
Builder mindset.
Collaborative by default.
Proactive problem solver.

Key Responsibilities:

You will shape and deliver our entire legal strategy, creating the organisation’s first cohesive approach to governance, risk, and compliance. You’ll design the overarching legal strategy development roadmap, advise the CEO and senior leaders, and ensure our legal foundations support DFYNE’s operations across the UK and international markets.
You will own and elevate all commercial and contractual activity, overseeing the full contract lifecycle management process and ensuring our agreements with suppliers, partners, and customers are robust, fair, and commercially sound. This includes managing cross border contractual requirements, jurisdiction nuances, and international commercial standards.
You will lead DFYNE’s regulatory and compliance landscape, ensuring we meet all legal obligations across consumer, commercial, employment, and data protection law. You’ll partner closely with People, Digital, and Operations to strengthen GDPR and data governance, while ensuring compliance with international data, consumer, and employment regulations across any regions DFYNE will operate in.
You will manage disputes and risk response with clarity and confidence, taking ownership of claims, pre litigation matters, and any emerging legal risks. You’ll also oversee external counsel management, ensuring we get the right specialist support when needed and maintain strong, cost-effective partnerships.
You will build and lead DFYNE’s first legal function, designing structure, hiring exceptional talent, and embedding modern legal operations across the business. As DFYNE continues to grow, you’ll champion legal operational excellence by implementing frameworks that work across multiple jurisdictions and support global consistency.

Experience Needed:

You will be a qualified solicitor in the UK with 5+ years PQE.
A broad experience across commercial, corporate, regulatory, and data protection law is essential.
Experience working with or advising multi-jurisdictional matters, cross border contracts, or international compliance frameworks is highly desirable.
Experience in designing or improving legal processes, frameworks, or governance structure is desirable.

Skills:

Strategic judgement.
Commercial fluency.
Influential communication.
Relationship building.
Operational discipline.
Resilient and calm

So, what’s in it for you?

If you’ve made it this far down without being put off, brilliant, I’d love to hear from you. Besides a work family and a great place to work, you’ll have an opportunity to grow with the company, be a part of the journey, and have a vital input into helping continue the crazy growth we’ve already seen.

You’ll be part of a high challenge, high reward culture.
