We are excited to be recruiting for an experienced interim IP lawyer to support one of our exciting Retail & Consumer sector clients, within their in‑house legal function at the heart of one of the UK’s best‑known brands.
The role remit includes:
- Leading on complex, high-value matters across a range of legal areas, including managing contentious issues (incoming and outgoing claims), supporting product launches and approvals, and providing strategic advice on risk and compliance.
- Working in close partnership with Marketing, PR, and other customer-facing teams: advising on campaigns and communications, managing regulatory and advertising challenges (including complaints and clearances), and shaping risk-based decisions on major initiatives.
- Building strong relationships with stakeholders across multiple business units: understanding commercial priorities, aligning legal strategy with new business opportunities and growth areas, and enabling the business to move forward confidently within a clear risk framework.
This is an excellent interim opportunity for an IP‑focused lawyer who enjoys brand‑driven work and is looking to gain high‑quality in‑house experience with a major UK retailer. The role will particularly suit someone commercially minded, confident working with marketing teams and comfortable in a fast‑paced environment.
