About

Formerly known as Eircom, the Irish telecommunications entity now trading under the brand name Eir is the largest operator in the Republic of Ireland, known as a highly competitive market for telecoms providers. In keeping with the company’s size, the legal and corporate affairs department at Eir command a comprehensive remit, providing legal and regulatory support to each of the group’s business units across three brands; Eir, Eir Mobile and Meteor. Mark Cockerill, Eir’s director of legal services, oversees the work of the whole legal team, the bulk of which concerns managing disputes, litigation and general legal risk across the business. The often contentious nature of the highly regulated telecoms sector means that the legal team has to be agile, responsive and forward-thinking. The in-house lawyers at Eir also show a willingness to be open and collaborative with their business partners, illustrated by the way they work alongside their corporate affairs colleagues in assisting with regulatory issues that arise for the business.
