Legal Counsel – Commercial - Privacy & Product
London | Hybrid – 2 days per week | 2–4 years’ PQE
We are working with a high-growth, wellbeing and coaching international technology business looking to appoint a Legal Counsel to join its established legal team in London.
This is an excellent opportunity for a lawyer looking to build their career across privacy, product and commercial legal matters, working closely with experienced senior lawyers while gradually taking on greater autonomy and ownership.
The role will have a particular focus on privacy and product counselling, alongside exposure to a broad range of technology and commercial contracts.
The role will include:
- Conducting privacy assessments, including PIAs, DPIAs and TIAs
- Supporting the development and maintenance of internal privacy and data-use policies and procedures
- Monitoring developments across privacy, data and AI regulation and helping translate these into practical guidance for product and technology teams
- Advising on DSARs, cookies, tracking technologies and wider privacy compliance matters

About you:
You will ideally be a 2–4 years’ PQE lawyer, qualified in England & Wales or an equivalent jurisdiction, with a genuine interest in developing your career across privacy and product law.
You should have some exposure to privacy and data protection compliance, including GDPR and/or other international privacy regimes. Commercial contracts experience and exposure to technology businesses would also be highly beneficial.
You will need to be a strong communicator with excellent drafting and research skills, comfortable working in a fast-paced and evolving environment and able to get up to speed quickly with new areas.
An interest in AI and emerging technology is particularly relevant to this role. Exposure to AI governance, the EU AI Act or an IAPP qualification such as CIPP/E would be advantageous, but is not essential.
- This is a fantastic opportunity to join a dynamic, international technology business at an exciting stage of its growth, with excellent exposure across privacy, product, AI and commercial work.
