At least 6 years of relevant post-qualification experience, part of which has been obtained in-house. You’ll need to be qualified in an EU jurisdiction or England & Wales. Excellent attention to detail, drafting and analytical skills; and extensive experience of negotiating commercial contracts (including sales and distribution contracts) across various EMEA jurisdictions. A good understanding of European competition law and prior experience of advising on competition law considerations (preferably, within a retail environment and including the implementation and management of a selective distribution system). Ability to identify and assess legal risks; and propose effective risk mitigation strategies. Solid commercial acumen. You need to be able to discern legal issues from business issues, and tailor your advice to recognise commercial considerations and practical realities. Excellent communication skills. You need to be able to adapt your communication style to the situation and audience; and explain complex issues clearly and in a way that is easy for non-legal stakeholders to understand. Good at building working relationships with stakeholders at all levels of seniority, building trust and credibility, and managing strong personalities. The confidence and resilience to proactively contribute to discussions, ask questions, and challenge decisions to ensure that Dyson does the right thing. Ability to work under pressure and remain calm; and proven experience of managing multiple stakeholders and competing demands in a fast-paced environment. You need to be able to prioritise your time effectively and adopt a pragmatic approach to getting things done. The versatility to deal with issues outside of your prior experience and learn quickly on the job. A team player, passionate about developing and supporting others, and enthusiastic to get involved in team initiatives and projects. Open to challenging conventional ways of doing things and exploring new ideas. Experience of implementing legal technology or process improvements would be an additional plus. Fluent in English and comfortable providing advice and drafting legal documents in English (other European languages will be considered an additional plus).
