We have been awarded the “Most Loved Workplace”! At Metro Bank, people come first – our culture is all about bringing the best out in our colleagues, and making sure everyone feels valued, respected, seen and included. We strongly believe in a diverse and inclusive workplace and to find the very best person for the job, we always look across a wide range of diverse communities.

OUR PROMISE TO YOU…

  • We will make sure that you are well-rewarded by providing you with a competitive salary, discretionary annual bonus, and a wide range of benefits, including generous holiday allowance, attractive pension scheme, healthcare, life assurance, and a number of colleague discounts!
  • We will give you the training to ensure you succeed in your role and plenty of internal opportunities to progress your career (around 40% of our recruitment comes from internal promotions!).
  • We are also all about balance so most of our jobs offer the opportunity for hybrid working built around your role and home life, wherever possible.
    Important Footnote
    Diverse teams really are the best teams. We know that candidates (especially women, research tells us) may be put off applying for a job unless they can tick every box. We also know that ‘normal’ office hours aren’t always doable, and while we can’t accommodate every flexible working request we are happy to be asked. So if you are excited about working with us and think you can do much of what we are looking for but aren’t sure if you are 100% there yet… why not give it a whirl? Please note that sometimes we may close a job earlier for applications if we are inundated with amazing candidates.. Good luck!
Responsibilities
  • Supporting the delivery of commercially focused, non-contentious and contentious legal advice across all business functions, including but not limited to regulatory (financial services), dispute resolution, corporate and commercial (particularly contract reviews).
  • Managing the Legal Team’s inbox and post, including triaging matters effectively to appropriate members across the team and also dealing with matters within capability and agreed remit.
  • Supporting the Legal Team with litigious matters, including drafting letters in response to claimants, drafting witness statements and preparing court bundles.
  • Reviewing, drafting and negotiating contracts with appropriate supervision, including NDAs and supplier contracts.
  • Demonstrating and further developing legal skills and internal and external relationship management and stakeholder engagement.
  • Supporting with legal operations, including updating template documents, spreadsheets and process improvement.
  • Assisting in the delivery of or facilitating training within the Legal Team and, where agreed, across the wider business.
  • Supporting and/ or fulfilling various administrative requirements.
    And… we are a bank so risk is a part of everything we do. We love people who take responsibility, do the right thing for customers, colleagues and Metro Bank and have the courage to call out any concerns.
