Legal Counsel (Construction)

I’m currently supporting one of the most highly regarded in-house legal teams within the infrastructure and engineering sector on the appointment of a Legal Counsel.

This is an opportunity to join a global business operating at the forefront of major infrastructure and development projects across the UK and internationally.

The role forms part of a sophisticated and collaborative legal function, with legal advising across a broad range of commercial, construction, disputes, governance and strategic matters.

The successful candidate will support complex and high-value infrastructure projects, partnering closely with project and commercial teams across the business.

This role would suit a construction lawyer looking for genuinely high-quality work, significant autonomy and strong work/life balance within a stable and highly respected organisation.

About You

• England & Wales qualification (or another common law jurisdiction)
• Strong construction/projects experience (ideally 5+ PQE)
• Experience gained either in private practice or in-house
• Ability to work autonomously and pragmatically
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills

The Opportunity

This role offers:

• High-quality and internationally significant project work
• Strong autonomy and trust
• Broad exposure beyond pure construction law
• Flexible hybrid working
• Collaborative and low ego culture
• Long‑term stability

While the business offers flexibility on location, some travel to London will be required (fully expensed).

If you would like to discuss the opportunity in more detail, please get in touch for a confidential conversation.
