Build and own the legal and commercial function of a high-growth UK healthcare SaaS company
Script Assist is looking for an exceptional
Legal & Commercial Counsel
to work directly with the CEO and increasingly take ownership of the company’s legal, contracting and privacy function.
This is not a traditional back-office legal role.
We are looking for an in-house lawyer who is commercially sharp, exceptionally organised and capable of taking fast-moving, sometimes messy information and turning it into explicit decisions, actions and completed work.
You will be expected to
own matters through to completion
, not simply provide legal advice and hand them back to the business.
For the right person, this is a significant career opportunity with the potential to grow into leadership of the legal function as Script Assist scales.
