Are you an experienced commercial lawyer looking to make a meaningful impact in the public sector? I am seeking a skilled and motivated legal professional to join the team of a well regarded public sector organisation on an initial 6-month fixed-term contract, with potential for extension up to 24 months.

Key Responsibilities
You will provide expert legal advice and support on a wide range of commercial and corporate matters, including:
- Negotiation, drafting, interpretation and enforcement of commercial agreements and grants
- Structuring and advising on debt and/or equity financing and investment

About You
You will be a qualified solicitor or barrister (or equivalent) with demonstrable experience in the areas listed above.
