Job description

The Role

The Law Society is seeking an experienced Head of Governance to lead our governance and executive office functions into a modern, smart and efficient future.

This newly created and pivotal leadership role is responsible for strengthening our governance capability, embedding best practice across the organisation, and ensuring the highest standards of oversight, transparency and strategic alignment.

Reporting to the General Counsel, the Head of Governance will combine advanced leadership capability with excellent communication, technological and risk-management skills. You will shape how our Board, Council and committees engage with the organisation, ensuring they are supported to deliver robust oversight and drive our strategic priorities.

This is an exciting, career-defining opportunity to make a significant impact by building a governance function that adds real value to decision-making and champions continuous improvement across the organisation.

Please refer to the job description for further information.



What we're looking for

We're seeking someone with proven leadership and line-management experience, with the ability to motivate and develop high-performing teams.

You will have extensive experience leading governance functions in complex organisations, alongside thorough knowledge of formal governance rules, frameworks and best practice.

You will also have significant experience working with senior leaders, Office Holders, Board Chairs or equivalent, and managing Boards and committees. You will be adept at balancing competing priorities and experienced in leading organisational change.

As a key stakeholder for the Governance team, you will bring a strong strategic mindset and play a central role in strengthening relationships between the Governance team and the wider organisation.

What's in it for you

This is an excellent opportunity to join an organisation that has recently achieved Gold accreditation from Investors in People, recognising our commitment to being an employer of choice for people who want to make a meaningful difference.

You will join an organisation with a strong reputation for excellence, a commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion, and a culture built on clarity, trust and respect.

We offer hybrid working (two days per week in our London office), a generous flexible benefits package, a positive working environment and opportunities for career development within a professional and supportive organisation.

The Law Society has partnered exclusively with Mackie Myers to recruit this role.
