description
Aim high, go beyond!
We're scaling rapidly across Europe and beyond, and with that growth comes increasing complexity, opportunity, and ambition. As a result we are now looking for a Junior Legal Counsel to join our team and support the commercial and operational activity behind our missions.
This is an exciting opportunity for a commercially minded lawyer who enjoys working close to the business, taking ownership of their work, and contributing to innovative space projects in a fast-growing international company.
What You'll be doing
The focus of the role is day-to-day commercial legal work, while also contributing to more complex and innovative projects in the space sector.
Working closely with the General Counsel, you'll manage your own matters end-to-end, collaborating with teams across the business to deliver practical, commercially focused legal advice.
You'll Be:
Drafting, reviewing and negotiating commercial agreements, including NDAs, procurement contracts and customer agreements
Supporting commercial transactions with appropriate supervision
Providing legal support on complex space-related projects and transactions
Managing assigned legal matters independently while escalating risks when needed
Working closely with teams across the business - including Revenue, Procurement and Supply Chain - to provide pragmatic legal advice
Translating legal concepts into clear, actionable guidance for non-legal stakeholders
What You'll Bring
A genuine interest in working in the Space Sector
This role can be based in either Spain or the UK.
Please submit your application and CV in English
