    Job Description & Summary

    In-house Commercial Technology lawyer - PwC - London

    PwC is a leading global professional services network with over 295,000 staff operating in 156 countries. PwC UK is seeking an experienced Commercial Technology lawyer to work in its Office of General Counsel commercial team, to support the continued growth of our UK business, primarily in the consulting, technology, and managed services space. Our technology practice has grown significantly over the past few years and we anticipate this continuing and increasing as we move out of the current pandemic and beyond.

    You will have at least 6 years' experience in providing commercial legal advice, either within an in-house environment or within law firms, ideally working with clients similar to PwC or its competitors. You will also have excellent communication skills, the ability to build strong relationships and the capability to determine strategy and influence negotiations in an innovative business environment.

    The work is demanding, the deals are varied, and no day will be the same. You will be able to assimilate information quickly, get to the heart of a deal and advise the business not just on the legal and commercial aspects of any given deal, but on the project as a whole. You will work closely with our bid teams and our engagement delivery teams, you will have direct access to our clients and their legal teams and you will act as the face of PwC in transactions. The existing commercial team is highly valued by the business and we are very much seen as business enablers.

    Our UK in-house legal team of nearly 50 lawyers is an experienced, well established and supportive group of professionals, who are highly regarded by and well networked to the business, and who have strong relationships with a wide range of senior professionals in the organisation, including at Executive Board level.

    Our commercial team is split between two hubs, one in London and the other in Birmingham. This role will be based in London at our head office at 1 Embankment Place. Our team works in a hybrid way, splitting time between the office, home and client sites.

    Key requirements for the role:

    · At least 6 years' PQE (or equivalent) in a commercial team;

    · Broad experience of advising on technology contracts and/or managed service, outsourcing and other commercial and IT related (software licences and SaaS) contracts;

    · Strong drafting skills;

    · Ability to handle complex negotiations using sound judgment to ensure that the firm's best interests are served;

    · Ability to appreciate the wider reputational, commercial and business aspects of each deal;

    · Ability to adapt and to be open minded and innovative;

    · Sound judgment and well developed influencing skills, together with the confidence to work with senior management across the business; and

    · An ability to build strong relationships and become a trusted advisor to the business.
