Legal Counsel

Location: Milton Keynes Support Office (Hybrid – minimum 2 days in office)
Reporting to: Head of Legal & DPO

You already know who we are and what we do. Domino’s UK & Ireland is the engine behind a market‑leading brand, supporting our franchise network and keeping our business moving at pace.

We’re looking for an In-House Legal Counsel to join our Legal team at our Milton Keynes Support Office. This is a varied, hands‑on role where you’ll work across the business, providing trusted legal advice on a broad range of commercial matters. From marketing and advertising to data protection and franchising, no two days will look the same.

If you enjoy working closely with stakeholders, navigating complexity and helping a fast‑moving business make well‑informed decisions, this could be the role for you.

What You’ll Bring

You’ll bring strong commercial judgement, clear communication and the confidence to work autonomously in a busy environment.

• Qualified solicitor with 7–10 years’ post‑qualification experience
• Strong communication skills with a high level of attention to detail
• Comfortable working independently, with good judgement on when to escalate
• Experience advising on commercial contracts across a broad stakeholder base
• Franchising experience is a real advantage, but not essential
• Advising on IT matters and emerging technologies as the business evolves its AI strategy. 

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll support teams across Domino’s UK & Ireland, helping the business stay compliant while moving forward with confidence.

• Reviewing, advising on and amending commercial contracts, including supplier, agency and third‑party agreements
• Partnering with the Marketing team on advertising, menus, competitions and sponsorship agreements
• Advising on regulatory and licensing matters, including drafting terms and conditions
• Supporting the business on data protection matters, particularly direct marketing compliance
• Advising on data processing agreements, supplier contracts and international data transfers
• Providing guidance on franchise compliance, including the Standard Franchise Agreement (SFA)

How We’ll Support You

We’ll make sure you have what you need to do your best work and keep developing your career.

• Competitive salary and performance‑based bonus
• Competitive pension contributions
• Private health and dental care
• Income protection
• Ongoing professional development opportunities
• A supportive, collaborative Legal team
• And of course… a Domino’s pizza discount
