Sports Lawyer

Reimagining Work as a Sports Lawyer? 

Livida Sport is looking for a confident, capable Sports Lawyer 

London/Essex/Hybrid - Full-Time/Part-Time/Flexible 

A new way to practise law? 

Whether you’re rethinking your path in law, returning from a career break, or simply want to do high-quality work without rigid targets and office politics — this could be the role for you. We’re looking for an excellent lawyer to join Livida Sport, working  flexibly on top-tier sport and entertainment matters. If you’ve ever wanted to build something of your own, shape your work 
around modern life, or bring your full creative self to a team — you’ll feel at home here.

LIVIDA SPORT is a specialist sports consultancy operating at the highest level across football, boxing, cricket, and the wider sports and entertainment industry. Founded by Liz Ellen (former Partner & Head of Sport at Mishcon de Reya), we provide legal and strategic advice to clubs, governing bodies, elite athletes, agents and investors worldwide. The work can range from high-profile legal matters to non-legal sports projects of an international nature.

We offer the quality of work you’d expect in a top-tier  firm — without the billing targets, rigid structure  or  internal  politics.  No  hierarchy.  Just  impactful  work  in  a  flexible,  supportive environment.

The Role 

You’ll advise on a wide range of work including:

• Sports disputes before FIFA, CAS and other tribunals 
• Contractual, regulatory and disciplinary matters 
• Reputation and crisis management 
• Commercial deals, including player transfers and club transactions 
• Strategic advisory projects 

For those with a litigation focus, there’s an opportunity to work on High Court matters via our regulated law firm, Livida Legal. There will also be the possibility of working in sports mediation - an area we are actively developing.

Who This Might Suit 

We’re looking for someone with solid legal experience – typically  5+ PQE, though we’re open to hearing from outstanding candidates, whatever your level of seniority. You’ll be able to contribute in different ways according to your unique skillset, so if you’re confident in your abilities we are open to exploring the possibilities.  You will be qualified to practise in England and Wales with a background in disputes and experience in the sports industry.

You’ll thrive here if you are: 

• Organised, pragmatic and enjoy working in a close-knit team 
• Skilled in building and maintaining trusted client relationships 
• Discreet, commercially aware and able to handle sensitive matters confidently 
• Genuinely interested in sport and the wider entertainment space 
• A thoughtful, collaborative self-starter who values quality and takes pride in your work

If you enjoy business development, shaping strategy, or potentially growing your own client base — this is a place that supports that ambition. We also welcome those with interest in content, social media, or brand-building alongside legal work — there’s space to shape the role around your strengths.

A strong network in sport or entertainment is welcome, but not essential. Fluency in other languages and cultural intelligence are a bonus. Most of all, we’re looking for someone who’ll value being part of a relationship-driven, highly respected, female-led business.

Why Join Us? 

• High-profile, meaningful work 
• Interesting clients, interesting cases 
• No billing targets – we trust you to deliver 
• True flexibility: structure your working time around your life 
• A smart, supportive and forward-thinking team
