Are you a commercially minded lawyer with a passion for technology, data, and innovation? This is a unique opportunity to play a key legal role in one of the UK’s most ambitious infrastructure projects — driving forward complex technology, IP, and data arrangements that sit at the heart of the UK’s clean energy transition.

You’ll be part of a collaborative and high-performing legal team supporting a large-scale, high-value project with national importance.

Advising on a wide range of IT and commercial contracts, from SaaS and software licences to digital transformation and cloud infrastructure.
Managing complex intellectual property and data sharing arrangements across multiple partners and stakeholders.
Providing expert guidance on privacy, cyber, AI, and emerging technology regulation.
Supporting strategic decisions on systems and digital programmes that underpin long-term infrastructure delivery.
Collaborating with senior stakeholders and external counsel to ensure timely, compliant, and commercially sound outcomes.

What we’re looking for:

Qualified lawyer (England & Wales at least 3PQE+)
Solid experience in commercial law; IP, data protection and cyber experience a plus.
Strong commercial judgment and ability to balance legal risk with practical delivery.
Excellent communicator, able to translate complex legal issues into clear, actionable advice.
Proactive, adaptable and comfortable operating in a fast-moving, multi-stakeholder environment.
