Associate/Senior Associate, Engineering, Ireland

This firm has everything going for it.

• Friendly and supportive work environment?
• Well established practice built over 50+ years?
• Fantastic client reputation across Ireland, UK and the EU?
• Busy tech portfolio with the opportunity for further growth?
• Visible Partnership that listens to and develops in response to industry change?

And that’s just for starters. We back this firm wholeheartedly and are pleased to be assisting them in finding a new addition for their Engineering team. They have a wealth of experience across all disciplines but this particular role is focused on the engineering, mechanical, and physical sciences. You will be handling drafting and prosecution in the UK, Ireland, the EU, and further afield across the globe. The team also advise on all elements of the IP lifecycle, including more contentious issues. Clients specialise in areas such as farm equipment, consumer appliances, medical devices, and food technology.

The practice encourages an inclusive and collaborative environment with the opportunity to be involved in all elements of the business and have a voice in shaping the future direction of your career. Ideally you will be a qualified European patent attorney with a couple of years’+ PQE.

The team handles a substantial amount of work originating from local clients, meaning you will need to be on (or have the ability to be on) the Irish Patent Register. The practice will support relocation if you are not already living in Ireland. There is hybrid working available but some presence in the office (either Dublin or Belfast) will be required.
