Legal Counsel

Join the Travis Perkins Group and be part of achieving our purpose to help build better communities and enrich lives.

We are recruiting for a Legal Counsel to support the Travis Perkins Group to be the leading partner to the construction industry.

You will be a key member from day one of our established in-house team.  You will share in our aim to deliver pragmatic, solution-focused legal advice by applying our technical skills in a practical and business-friendly way.. 

It is a role with room to grow and we welcome new ideas and fresh perspectives.  Whatever your level of post-qualification experience you will display a keen ambition to learn and help further improve the team and our output.   

In our team your work will be based on commercial law generally but your experience may be from any other area of law.  What is most important is your ability to understand and work closely with our colleagues beyond our team to problem solve and drive informed and effective decisions.

Outside of a competitive remuneration package, we offer an extensive reward and benefits package.  We know the role can be demanding so work/life balance and well-being are important to us too.  To help support that we work on a hybrid basis where our team members split their working week between our Northampton office (and other sites) and home. Flexibility is a real thing for us too; we know we can trust our team to prioritise urgent business needs but also make time for family and key interests away from work.  This approach is valued highly by our existing team.

To keep our colleagues and customers safe, if you are successful in the role you will be made a conditional offer subject to additional background checks including criminal record (basic DBS), adverse financial, media search, occupational history, professional membership/qualification.

Not Sure you Qualify? We’re driving to become a truly inclusive employer, where everyone in our Group feels safe, welcome and confident to be their authentic self - you be you, it makes us, us, as we say. If you are interested in this opportunity but your past experience does not align perfectly, we encourage you to apply anyway. You might be just the right candidate for this or other roles with us.

If you have the desire to be part of our team and help Travis Perkins Group build better communities and enrich lives we would love to hear from you!
