Job News Round Up
Fun in Engineering
In early 2019 we’ve noticed a trend towards many more engineering vacancies. These range from part qualified all the way up to senior associate in locations all over the UK, in particular a really rather good Partner role in London.
Biotechnology at Senior Levels
We also have a variety of options in biotechnology, particularly for candidates at senior associate level and above.
Partners
We have a current requirement for a trade mark Partner with a significant amount of management experience. It could be someone who is currently a full equity Partner or someone who wants to make that step. Client following not required (but nice to have of course)!
We also have Partner level requirements for patent attorneys in biotechnology, engineering and electronics.
Electronics
Lots of opportunities as always, one of the most interesting is for a firm who have an extensive Asian direct client base so the role will have you travelling pretty frequently.
Chemistry
Chemistry roles have been fairly rare of late, however times are a changing with this fantastic role with a European IP law firm. Candidates can be anywhere from 2 years’ PQE up to senior associate, and the role will offer a well-rounded portfolio of work as well as the opportunity to work on projects not normally offered by your run of the mill private practice.
Regions
We’re noticing a fairly significant uptake in positions across the regions, both for larger firms with multiple office sites and smaller practices on the up and up. Working in a regional office should by all means not be considered as a step back from opportunities in the capital, as most if not all can offer commensurate salaries, career progression, the same standard of clients, and access to a wide range of interesting technologies. In particular we have roles in biotechnology in Cambridge and Manchester; engineering in the Midlands, Oxford and Scotland; electronics in Leeds, Cambridge, Oxford, Southampton and Manchester; and trade marks in Oxford.
If you fancy heading a little further afield, we also have opportunities across Europe and a very interesting role in Asia.
