Opportunity for an International Arbitration Solicitor to join a leading specialist litigation boutique in London at Associate or Senior Associate level.
The Firm
My client is a highly regarded specialist disputes boutique, recognised as one of London's leading litigation firms.
The firm has built an outstanding reputation for handling some of the most high-profile and complex disputes globally, acting for corporates, sovereign states, investors and high-net-worth individuals.
Their Legal 500-ranked International Arbitration team is continuing to grow and is now looking to hire an Associate or Senior Associate to join their close-knit team.
The Opportunity
This is an exciting opportunity to join a international arbitration practice working on some of the most significant commercial and investment treaty arbitrations currently before leading arbitral institutions.
The team advises clients on high-value, cross-border disputes across a broad range of sectors and jurisdictions, acting in commercial arbitrations under major institutional rules as well as investment treaty, State-investor and State-State disputes, often involving billion-dollar claims.
You'll work directly alongside an experienced Partner and a small, collaborative team, giving you exceptional exposure from day one. Unlike larger international firms, this role offers genuine responsibility, including the opportunity to play a proactive role in case strategy, client management and, for those with the ambition, developing advocacy skills.
The firm is known for providing outstanding Partner access, hands-on experience and a clear commitment to developing its lawyers into recognised experts within their field.
Requirements
- Qualified Solicitor (England & Wales or equivalent common law jurisdiction) with approximately 3-7 years' PQE
- Strong international arbitration experience gained at a respected City or international law firm
