Your role

You will support Capgemini’s UK&I Legal Client Operations team on external customer-facing technology services deals, from RFI/RFP/tender review and bid support through customer-paper negotiation, contract signature and post-signature matters. The role is for a commercial/IT lawyer with regular supplier-side contracting experience in competitive customer environments. You will work with sales, delivery, commercial, finance, bid, data protection and security stakeholders, helping the business assess risk, propose pragmatic negotiation positions and communicate concise legal advice on what can be accepted, negotiated, mitigated or escalated. We are hiring one role; appointment level will depend on the candidate’s directly relevant experience.

Your tasks

You will support UK&I external customer-facing deals across the deal lifecycle, with responsibilities appropriate to grade and directly relevant experience, including:

• Advise on customer-facing UK&I deals from opportunity qualification, RFI/RFP/tender and bid stages through negotiation, signature and post-signature support.

• Review, mark up and negotiate customer-drafted MSAs, frameworks, SOWs and schedules for technology, outsourcing, managed services, cloud/SaaS, digital transformation, consultancy and engineering services.

• Support bid strategy, legal mark-ups, risk positions and negotiation assumptions under tender timelines.

• Advise on supplier-side risk allocation, including liability, indemnities, warranties, SLAs, customer dependencies, IP, data protection, cyber/security, audit, subcontracting, termination, change control and exit.

• Work with sales, delivery, commercial, finance, bid, data protection, security and senior stakeholders to align legal positions with delivery reality and commercial strategy.

• Prepare concise legal risk assessments and recommendations for governance and escalation processes.

• Support large, strategic or complex deals as deal lead or supporting deal lead, depending on experience.

• Contribute to post-contract issue management, dispute avoidance, training, knowledge sharing and legal process improvement.

• Support non-client matters only where appropriate; the primary focus remains external customer-facing UK&I client contracting.

• Strong commercial judgement and ability to explain legal risk in business-friendly, executive-ready language.
• Confidence to influence senior stakeholders and collaborate with sales, delivery, commercial, finance, bid, data protection and security teams.
