Want to be part of a hyper growth, fast paced, global business that is radically changing the decades old delivery universe as we know it? If so, read on, as we’re looking for a Legal Counsel to join our Legal team!
Our mission? To switch up the status quo and become the UK’s leading out-of-home business. With a fast-growing network of thousands of smart lockers, hundreds of leading retail partners and the launch of our InPost collection points, we’re bringing freedom to anyone with a parcel.
On our path to transforming e-commerce delivery in the UK, we’re building an unparalleled group of talent that’s hungry to help us disrupt the industry. Our team is packed full of top-notch experts in e-commerce, technology, scale-up growth, sustainability, logistics and supply-chain. We’re a passionate bunch and expectations are high, but we’re team players – collaborating, supporting, and leaving egos at the door.
About the role
We are excited to welcome a talented lawyer to our in-house Legal team at InPost UK. Reporting to our General Counsel with support from our Senior Legal Counsel, you'll be part of a supportive, down-to-earth, high-quality legal team. Your work will be highly varied - while your primary focus will be supporting our commercial teams to drive business growth across our locker network and eCommerce partnerships, you will also collaborate with other core functions and contribute to impactful initiatives across the business.
This is a fantastic opportunity for a lawyer looking to further develop their in-house expertise in a rapidly evolving company. At InPost, we are truly revolutionising the traditional delivery landscape through the quality of our technology, people, products and partnerships. If you're excited by the idea of being part of a business that is positively impacting the daily lives of the people around you, while having both the autonomy and support to do your best work, this is the role for you.

This is a hybrid role based in our central London or Edinburgh office 2-3 days per week. We’re looking for people who are ready for a fast-paced environment, get their kicks out of problem-solving and can balance getting today's stuff done, whilst building for the future.

We will try our best to get back to you within a few days to let you know if we’d like to take you to the first stage. This normally involves a 20-30 minute chat with our Talent Team. If we both feel the connection, you’ll then go through another one or two stages, depending on the level of the role. At InPost, we love uniqueness. Our strength is our people. We strive to create an open, equal, inclusive environment in which everyone has the opportunity to flourish and be themselves.
