This is a fantastic opportunity to advance your career in a leading-edge technology company and contribute directly to our growth. The successful candidate will support a wide range of real estate, joint-venture, and leasing transactions related to our data centers. As the third member of our growing UK legal team, you will be part of a dedicated team supporting our European expansion. You will report to a US-based Senior Director & Lead Managing Counsel of Real Estate and work closely with colleagues across the US and EMEA.
Our team values collaboration and invites divergent thinking. We take a practical and efficient approach to everything we do and aim to build strong and trusting relationships with our team, leadership, and cross-functional partners.
About the role:
- Lead and manage commercial real estate transactions, including negotiating, drafting, and reviewing data center lease agreements;
- Provide guidance and counsel on the acquisition, development and financing of data center properties;
- Offer ongoing support for data center operations, including handling contractual matters, infrastructure, and power agreements;
- Work closely with internal and external stakeholders to run real estate due diligence and closings.
- Provide on-going legal guidance to the company on a wide range of commercial transactions in the ordinary course of operations.

- You have a strong foundation in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating real estate documents, as well as managing closing processes.
- A highly organized, collaborative legal professional with strong stakeholder management and problem-solving skills, comfortable managing multiple priorities under pressure.
- You possess excellent written and oral communication skills, with proficiency in Gmail, Microsoft Word/Google Docs, and Excel/Google Sheets.
Nice to Have
- Demonstrable experience with real estate and/or datacenter law in EU member states and supporting mobility-related work across EMEA and/or APAC is a strong plus.
- Dual-qualification from a European jurisdiction (such as Spain, Norway, or Sweden) is desirable, but not essential.
