Job Description

We are seeking a senior litigator from a leading Greek law firm or an in-house legal function, with 8+ years' post-qualification experience and strong expertise in public procurement litigation. The ideal candidate combines courtroom experience with a preventive, commercially minded approach, and can protect the group's interests in competitive tender processes while keeping disputes to a minimum. You will join a dynamic, fast-growing GovTech business that bids for and delivers contracts for EU institutions and national public authorities across Europe.

Key Responsibilities

• Act as the group's senior authority on dispute resolution, setting strategy and overseeing any litigation, arbitration or administrative proceedings involving ED's entities across jurisdictions.
• Protect ED's position in public tenders: assess procurement decisions and, where appropriate, pursue or defend challenges before national review bodies, the Greek administrative courts and Council of State, and the EU General Court.
• Advise senior management and bid teams at key tender milestones (evaluation, award, standstill) so decisions to challenge, intervene or defend are well founded and proportionate.
• Prevent disputes by strengthening tender submissions, contract terms, and consortium and teaming agreements, drawing on procurement and litigation insight.
• Resolve contractual issues with clients, subcontractors and consortium partners early, favouring negotiated outcomes that protect long-term relationships.
• Select and manage external counsel in Greece, Luxembourg, Belgium and other jurisdictions when needed, ensuring strategy alignment and cost control.
• Provide the CEO and the Board with clear, periodic reporting on legal risk and exposure, and give input to Finance where relevant.
• Guide and support the in-house disputes team, promoting consistent quality and sound judgement.
• Advise on contractual risk in EU institutional and public sector framework contracts, and support compliance, governance and M&A due diligence as required.

Requirements

• LLB/LLM and qualification to practise law in Greece (member of the Athens Bar Association or equivalent); rights of audience before the higher courts preferred.
• 8+ years' experience in litigation and dispute resolution at a recognised Greek law firm or a comparable in-house role, with substantial public procurement litigation experience.
• Strong knowledge of national procurement review procedures and EU public procurement law, including the EU Directives and the EU Financial Regulation rules for procurement by EU institutions; experience before the EU courts is a strong advantage.
• Proven ability to assess legal risk proportionately, manage external counsel and budgets, and communicate clearly with senior management and boards.
• Experience guiding or mentoring other lawyers.
• Fluent English (written and spoken) is essential; French or other European languages are a strong plus.
• Sound judgement, independence and the ability to work across multiple jurisdictions.
• Commercial mindset, with a preference for practical, preventive solutions over adversarial ones.
