About the role
We are looking for a versatile commercial and privacy lawyer to join us as our second in-house hire. It will be a generalist role, but with a particular focus on privacy. You’ll be working with all parts of the business on anything from partnerships to marketing. Reporting into our Head of Legal, the role offers a great opportunity to help build our in-house legal function and to make a meaningful impact in supporting ZOE’s mission.
You'll be...
Managing and strengthening our legal privacy program. You’ll work with teams across ZOE to ensure that ZOE complies with all applicable privacy and data protection laws.
Working as a trusted advisor on new products, marketing campaigns and nutrition research.
Drafting and negotiating commercial contracts, including with commercial partners, academic collaborators and suppliers.
Providing business-as-usual legal advice and answering ad hoc legal queries from all parts of ZOE. This could range from consumer and regulatory issues to brand protection, advertising and US expansion.
Horizon scanning - monitoring legal developments and interpreting them for the business.
Owning the development and maintenance of internal and external privacy policies, procedures and guidance.
Identifying, creating and managing legal operations initiatives as we build the Legal function.
Managing external support where required.
We think this role would be a great fit if…
You have a minimum of 4-6 years’ post-qualification experience in commercial, privacy and technology matters.
You are qualified to practise as a solicitor in England.
You have in-house experience in a tech or start-up business.
Have the ability both to work autonomously and to collaborate effectively with cross-functional teams.
You are eager to upskill in new areas of law and legal practice.
You thrive in a fast-paced, remote-first environment, handling multiple matters simultaneously.
You can effectively communicate complex legal advice and provide practical solutions.
You are passionate about nutrition, health and wellness.
These are the ideal skills, attributes, and experience we’re looking for in this role. Don’t worry if you don’t tick all the boxes, especially on the skills and experience front, we’re happy to upskill for the right candidate.
Life as a ZOEntist – what you can expect from us:
As well as industry-benchmarked compensation and all the hardware and software you need, we offer a thoughtfully-curated list of benefits. We expect this list to evolve as we continue supporting our team members’ long-term personal and professional growth, and their wellbeing.
Remote-first: Work flexibly – from home, our London office, or anywhere within the EU
Stock options: So you can share in our growth
Paid time off: 28 days paid leave (25 holiday days, plus 2 company-wide reset days, and 1 “life event” day)
Enhanced Parental Leave: On top of the statutory offering
Flexible private healthcare and life assurance options
Pension contribution: Pay monthly or top up – your choice.
Health and wellbeing: Like our Employee Assistance Program and Cycle to Work Scheme
Social, WFH, and Growth (L&D) budgets. Plus, multiple opportunities to connect, grow, and socialise
We’re all about equal opportunities
We know that a successful team is made up of diverse people, able to be their authentic selves. To continue growing our team in the best way, we believe that equal opportunities matter, so we encourage candidates from any underrepresented backgrounds to apply for this role. You can view our Equal Opportunities statement in full here.
A closer look at ZOE Think you’ve heard our name somewhere before? We were the team behind the COVID Symptom Study, which has since become the ZOE Health Study (ZHS). We use the power of community science to conduct large-scale research from the comfort of contributors’ own homes. Our collective work and expertise in biology, engineering, and data/nutrition science have led to multiple breakthrough papers in leading scientific journals such as Nature Medicine, Science, The Lancet, and more.
Seen ZOE in the media recently? Catch our co-founder Professor Tim Spector (one of the world’s most cited scientists) and our Chief Scientist Dr Sarah Berry on this BBC Panorama, and listen to CEO Jonathan Wolf unpack the latest in science and nutrition on our ZOE podcast.
Oh, and if you’re wondering why ZOE? It translates to “Life” in Greek, which we’re helping ZOE members enjoy to the fullest.
