12 month - Legal Counsel - Marketing, Media and Intellectual Property Reading, England
Job description
Our people make us who we are. We’re a diverse and inclusive bunch, and it’s important you can feel you belong here. We value everybody for who they are and what they bring to the table, supporting one another as we continue to deliver for our customers. Where possible we’re committed to flexible working and supporting our employees to have the right work life balance.
As a Legal Counsel, you’ll provide support across Three’s marketing, sponsorships, partnerships, social media, branding and trading activities. It’s a great role, working closely with our vibrant marketing team, partners and creative agencies, advising on all manner of adverts and trading initiatives including T.V. adverts, social media content, interactive brand activations, offers, promotions and competitions. You’ll work closely and collaboratively with our partners Chelsea Football Club, Live Nation and on our new offers and rewards platform Three+ . You’ll also advise on new products and services and work on partnerships with big name brands to bring market leading campaigns to life. You could also work on a wide range of branding and intellectual property matters, including freedom to operate advice and working with trade mark agents to ensure we have the right protection for our brands and propositions.
Another important part of the role is understanding the market we operate in, including our competitors. You’ll work closely with our marketing and trading teams to understand the market and take action against competitor advertising and sales practices where we feel they mislead customers and undermine Three’s tactical and strategic objectives.
And if that’s not enough, the team also advises on a wide range of marketing contracts, advertising technology and data privacy issues.
If this sounds like a lot for one person to do, don’t worry. You’ll be part of a team of smart, seasoned lawyers who work together collaboratively. You’ll learn a lot but you won’t be expected to know all the answers, just to show a willingness to figure them out.
You will have the ability to view situations from a commercial or wider business perspective (analysing risks and opportunities) and deliver the best possible outcomes for Three in a timely manner. You’ll also need the confidence to question others and discuss your views in an open honest and collaborative environment.
