Colombia DAC Beachcroft LLP A tiempo completo

DAC Beachcroft is looking to appoint a Commercial and Public Procurement Associate or Senior Associate level (5+yr PQE) to join our highly successful, award winning team in either our Newcastle, Leeds or Manchester office.

We have a thriving public sector client base, particularly in healthcare, infrastructure & projects, technology and central government contracts. We also have a growing private sector client base which provides a range of works and services to the public sector. We have high ambitions for the team and are looking for candidates who would like to help us realise these.

We regularly work on excellent quality, high profile, cutting edge projects and procurements that attract media attention. The ideal candidate will be able to assist with realisation of our business plan focusing on delivery of prompt, first class services to the public and private sector clients of the firm.

Collaborative working across our national offices is at the heart of what we do and, working with some of the highest ranked lawyers in the sector, there are constant opportunities for development and growth.

This opportunity is for an ambitious commercial and procurement lawyer, with expertise in negotiating and drafting a broad array of contractual arrangements. Knowledge of, or a keen interest in, health and other public sector contracting is important to us. Knowledge of, and experience with, advising on public procurement law is also essential. Knowledge of subsidy control law (or a willingness to develop experience and expertise in this area) would also be an advantage.

Work that you may be involved in includes:

  • Progressing, drafting and negotiating a diverse workload of commercial contracting matters of varying complexity and scale in a variety of sectors including health, central government, local government and utilities.
  • Undertaking, preparing and managing contracts and other key documents relating to the procurement of large scale projects that fall within the scope of procurement law.
  • Advising on commercial joint ventures and other types of PPPs.
  • Advising on technical aspects of procurement litigation matters as appropriate to support litigation colleagues.
  • General advice on contractual and commercial matters for a range of public sector clients and private sector clients who help to deliver public services.

The role includes the following responsibilities:

  • Managing your own matters, time and relationships and being a team player at all times.
  • Actively identifying and exploiting business development opportunities and marketing activity for team clients and your own contacts.
  • Initiating and participating in marketing/network activities in order to maintain and develop work from existing clients and potential clients.
  • Creating content for, and presenting and assisting in client and other external seminars and training opportunities, leading and taking part in pitches and leading and contributing positively to business development.
  • Maintaining and developing technical knowledge through attending training sessions, reading appropriate publications and exceeding Law Society CPD requirements.
  • Leading and contributing to technical and sector knowledge within the team and firm.
  • Supporting the effective running of the team e.g. contributing to team meetings, reviewing advice, reports and documents of more junior fee earners and providing guidance and feedback, assisting with the allocation of work.
  • Providing support for colleagues where appropriate e.g. progressing matters in colleagues’ absence, supporting CRM activities.
  • Continually monitoring and taking responsibility for own financial performance and demonstrating proactive financial management; attention to billing regimes, credit control, debt collection, accounting procedures and client service level agreements.
  • Handling confidential data in line with the firm's data security protocols.

The Ideal Candidate

5+yr PQE Solicitor with excellent experience of commercial and public procurement law work.

  • Strong academic background coupled with the ability to formulate and present sound, coherent advice, both orally and in writing.
  • Ability to think creatively and pragmatically to add value and provide risk-focused, practical advice.
  • Ability to adopt a client focused and commercial perspective rather than an ‘academic’ approach to legal issues, coupled with a keen grasp of legal issues, as these arise (demonstrating a clear ability to learn quickly ‘on the job’).
  • Willingness to take responsibility and ownership of client work, balancing confidence in your own ability and appropriate self-sufficiency with a willingness to learn and awareness of the boundaries of your own competence/authority.
  • Ability to deal confidently and professionally with clients on a day to day basis and to develop relationships with individual clients.
  • Ability to work alongside other professional advisors and consultants as part of a project team.
  • Ability to work effectively with colleagues, participate in team-working and develop relationships within the firm.
