You should have a degree or equivalent qualification, or relevant professional experience
Forming part of the Directorate of Legal and Governance, you must also have an understanding of the legal issues which arise in the context of a contract, as well as being articulate, commercially aware and having a keen eye for detail.
This post is available on a fixed term basis for 12 months (until April 2025).
