Leading global wealth manager and bank seeking a commercial, technology/ outsourcing lawyer to join their in-house commercial team in Scotland and the North West.

This is a unique opportunity to join a dynamic global team to provide legal, transactional, commercial and UK & EU regulatory support to the organisation. The role involves vendor contract management and negotiation with a focus on technology procurement and will include advising across development, licencing, maintenance, application hosting, outsourcing, hardware leasing and purchase agreements.

You will have proven experience as a commercial, technology and outsourcing lawyer from a top tier city firm with knowledge of the relevant regulatory framework. In-house experience in financial services is helpful but not a prerequisite, as is knowledge of GDPR and global privacy laws. Attitude is important in this collaborative team so the ideal candidate will be versatile, efficient, proactive and an excellent communicator with strong academics and understanding of vendor management.

This is an excellent opportunity offering interesting work on a flexible, hybrid basis at a world-renowned financial organisation with excellent benefits on offer.
