Practice Area: in-house, Compliance, Corporate, Corporate Governance, Risk, Projects
Level: Associate, Full Time
Section: Law Firm
Location: Channel Islands
Ref: FW9077

This well-established law firm is currently recruiting for a Senior Legal Counsel to join its expanding General Counsel team in Jersey. You may expect to be involved in providing top-tier advice and governance support to various partnerships and senior management.

The ideal candidate will have at least 5 years’ PQE with strong enthusiasm and interest in governance. It is preferable to be qualified in England and Wales, Scotland, Jersey or Guernsey with excellent understanding of corporate law. Responsibilities include:

  • Provide in-house legal advice and support, including liaising with external counsel in connection with specific governance projects.
  • Provide support on the governance-related integration of new jurisdictions and entities, including advising on legal and regulatory requirements and their implications from a governance perspective
  • Advise partners and senior management on the requirements of the firm’s constitutional documents

In-house experience is also advantageous, however not essential for the right candidate. If you are looking to develop or get a start on an in-house career, then this is a fantastic opportunity. This is a full-time position within an ambitious and progressive firm. Should this role be of interest, please do not hesitate to contact either Cameron or Teddie for an initial and confidential discussion. (Assignment 16465)
