Role
Who you are
- We are not looking for a particular CV but for a particular kind of lawyer, namely senior, commercial, honest, and genuinely interested in the work our teams do
- Qualified as a solicitor in England & Wales and the US (preferrably), with both qualifications current and in good standing
- 7+ years' PQE, with training at a leading law firm and in-house experience, ideally in technology, data, AI or professional services
- A track record of working fractionally, as an interim, or as a consultant lawyer, and of making an impact quickly
- Strong commercial contracting experience, especially services, technology and SaaS agreements
- Experience advising on cross-border matters across the UK, EU, and US, with exposure to APAC a plus
- Working knowledge of data protection, IP, and emerging AI regulation
- Experience setting up legal processes or being a company's first legal adviser
- Your own professional indemnity insurance, or cover through your platform or consultancy
- You prioritise ruthlessly and are clear about what can wait
- You give clear answers and a recommendation, not a list of risks
- You build trust with clients, colleagues and leadership because you are straight with them
- You leave things better documented than you found them, so the business is never stuck waiting for you
- You bring rigour without bureaucracy. Life is too short for red tape
- You are aligned with our company values. This matters to us
What the job involves
- As our Fractional Legal Counsel, you will be the senior legal partner to our COO, Exec team, and Board. In a fractional capacity, you will be part of the team, close to the people who win and deliver the work, and trusted to make the calls that keep us keep moving
- We need someone who can start adding value from their first week. You will handle our most important contracts and legal questions across EMEA, the Americas, and APAC, and set up the templates, playbooks, and processes that let the business handle routine matters with confidence when you are not there
- Being qualified in both England & Wales and the US means you can cover our two largest legal systems directly and coordinate local counsel everywhere else
- You will report to the COO and work closely with our CFO and General Managers, as many of our legal questions (commercial terms, liability, entity structure and governance) sit at the intersection of legal, finance, and operations. As the business grows, you will also help us decide what our long-term legal function should look like
- This role spans four pillars. As the role is fractional, focus matters a lot: you will prioritise what only a senior lawyer can do, bring in external support where it makes sense, and build the tools that let the business help itself
- Reviewing and negotiating our priority client agreements: MSAs, SOWs and framework agreements under English and US law
- Drafting key partner, vendor, and supplier agreements
- Advising clients and internal teams on cross-border matters across EMEA, the Americas, and APAC
- Setting clear positions on liability, IP ownership, and data terms, so deals keep moving
- Flagging the legal risks that matter most and recommending priorities to the COO and Exec team
- Oversight of corporate governance and entity matters across our 7 legal entities, working with local advisers
- Supporting the Exec team and board matters when legal input is needed
- Keeping our compliance posture current, including anti-bribery, sanctions, and export controls
- Data protection and privacy across the UK, EU and US, including DPAs and international transfers
- Guidance on AI regulation, including the EU AI Act, as it applies to our services
- Protecting our intellectual property, including our flagship product, Flowline
- Contract templates, negotiation playbooks and approval rules for routine matters
- A simple intake and tracking process so everyone knows what is in progress
- Selecting and managing external counsel for specialist or local-law work, within budget
- Helping shape the scope of a future full-time legal hire if and when we need one
- Reports to: COO
- Key partnerships: CEO, CTO, CFO, and other Exec team members; General Managers, Sales and Partnership leads, Head of People / HR
Application process
- Deadline to Apply: 5 November 2026
- Application review
- Screening conversation with our Talent Acquisition team
- Interview with the COO and CTO/CEO
- Technical interview with one of our legal advisors
Salary benchmarks
Our take
Vast amounts of data are available these days, and ballooning in volume, and its analysis provides a rich business opportunity for organizations looking to optimize and streamline their operations. In fact, at this point it’s becoming a must-have. Similar progress is taking place in cloud computing, with competitive edges and budget tightening achieved through migration to cloud-based systems. The only problem is, it can be costly and complex to set these up. So cloud and data engineering consultancy Infinite Lamba has, perhaps unsurprisingly, seen some good growth over recent years
The company offers full stack data, cloud development, DevOps, and training services to companies like Skyscanner, the NHS, the World Health Organization, and Sweaty Betty. As demand for smarter, faster and more resilient systems continues to rise, Infinite lambda's growing global presence puts it in a good position to capitalize on a market that shows little sign of slowing down.
