Griffin is a UK-authorised bank and Banking-as-a-Service (BaaS) platform that enables businesses to embed bank accounts, payments, safeguarding/client-money accounts, savings, and KYC/Verify functionality into their products via a purpose-built REST API and developer sandbox. The company combines regulated banking infrastructure with API-driven developer tools to support fintechs and businesses building payments, payroll, proptech, wealthtech and other financial products, while operating under PRA and FCA oversight.

📋 Description

• Reviewing and negotiating a wide range of commercial contracts — customer agreements, supplier contracts (including SaaS), referral agreements, trust deeds, NDAs and more • Running legal and risk reviews of contracts and giving stakeholders clear, commercially-minded advice • Reviewing customers' own terms and conditions to make sure they reflect our embedded banking flow-down requirements, and guiding them through any changes needed • Managing your own caseload end to end, from instruction through to completion • Partnering with teams across the business — including our service, chart, connect and craft teams — as their go-to for contractual and legal queries • Owning and maintaining our contract and NDA database • Helping us build out legal templates, playbooks and internal processes as we grow

🎯 Requirements

• Solid experience reviewing and negotiating commercial contracts • In-house experience, or a clear understanding of how advising a company as an internal function differs from private practice • The confidence to work directly with senior stakeholders and to hold your own in a negotiation • Comfort switching between very different types of work in the same day • An interest in banking or SaaS — you don't need deep expertise in either, but you'll enjoy getting stuck into how they work • A love of writing - we have a major amount of written documentation that you will be contributing to, and we place a high degree of importance on clarity and readability • Ideally, you would also: • Be keen to get involved with streamlining processes • Have experience with advising on and negotiating supplier contracts • Experience working within a bank, fintech, payments business or other regulated financial services organisation.
