Join us, be part of more. We’re so much more than an energy company. We’re a family of brands revolutionising how we power the planet. We're energisers. One team of 21,000 colleagues that's energising a greener, fairer future by creating an energy system that doesn’t rely on fossil fuels, whilst living our powerful commitment to igniting positive change in our communities. Here, you can find more purpose, more passion, and more potential. That’s why working here is #MoreThanACareer. We do energy differently - we do it all. We make it, store it, move it, sell it, and mend it. We’re looking for a commercially minded Legal Counsel, Property to join our high-performing Legal team. Reporting to the Associate General Counsel, Litigation & Property, you'll play a key role in supporting a diverse portfolio of property and infrastructure projects across the Centrica group. This is an exciting opportunity to work on complex and strategically important matters spanning renewable energy developments, gas storage, hydrogen projects, commercial property transactions, corporate acquisitions and estate management. You'll work closely with stakeholders across the business, providing pragmatic legal advice that helps drive growth while managing risk. The breadth of work means you'll need to be adaptable, inquisitive and solutions-focused, with the ability to manage competing priorities and build strong relationships across a wide stakeholder network.
We work flexibly in line with our Flexible First working arrangements believing that empowered colleagues are happier and more productive. The successful candidate will, however, need to be comfortable commuting to our Windsor office (until end 2026) and Reading office (from January 2027) on a weekly basis and to our other locations as may be needed.
A commercially aware lawyer who enjoys working in a fast-paced environment and thrives on solving complex business challenges.
We’re not a perfect place – but we’re a people place. Our priority is supporting all of the different realities our people face. Life is about so much more than work. We get it. That’s why we’ve designed our total rewards to give you the flexibility to choose what you need, when you need it, making sure that you and your family are supported not only financially, but physically and emotionally too.
We’re a family of brands revolutionising how we power the planet. When it comes to energy, no one does it like us. We make it, store it, move it, sell it and mend it. We’re made up of 12 different businesses, but united by our purpose as Centrica. We’re energisers. Our journey to a greener, fairer future is powered by individuals like you. Through innovative green products, intelligent energy solutions and developing smarter ways to use and save energy, we’re not just part of the energy transition, we’re leading it. Our commitment goes beyond sustainability. Together we’re bringing our collective energies to create positive change in our local communities. If you immerse yourself in our fight to change tomorrow, you might just find your why. We’re looking for people to add to our culture – not fit in with it. We're building a community where you can be unapologetically you, where differences are celebrated, and where everyone can belong. Real inclusivity also means supporting the different realities our people face. That’s why we have the UK’s best Carers Policy and are continually building our approach to flexibility and wellbeing. Of course, we love having fun too. We’re a people place after all.
