Overview

We started Biztech Lawyers to provide our clients with the service they need, wherever and whatever that may be. It’s a bold statement for a boutique firm with ambitious and innovative clients. We already have a talented team in 5 countries on 4 continents, and we’re still growing.

As a tech-centric business law firm - think AI, FinTech, Robotics, IoT, AdTech/MarTech, Healthtech, CleanTech, BioTech, etc. - we are working with some of the leading companies in their fields as well as the disruptors. Our clients include startups and scaleups, established corporates, private equity firms, fund managers and angel and venture capital investors.

Most importantly, we are fiercely committed to creating an awesome team environment for both personal and professional achievement. This is your career, and our aim is to supercharge it through the people, the work, and the programs that fuel who we are.

The role:

We are actively seeking a seasoned Partner to help lead our UK practice. You will work very closely with our global Founders, but taking significant ownership in the growth of our UK presence. This role is ideal for a business-savvy legal professional who has built a successful practice and is eager to work closely with international founders, investors, and innovators, providing both strategic and technical legal counsel.

If you crave a challenge within a dynamic, remote-first environment and want to collaborate with a global network of colleagues who live and breathe tech, this is your opportunity.

Job requirements

• Be instrumental in helping lead our UK practice, collaborating with colleagues across APAC and the Americas who have steered legal for rapidly growing ventures.
• Grow and mentor a team of talented lawyers servicing clients across our core solutions: Corporate, Commercial, Cyber & Data Privacy, Litigation IP & Financing.
• Find creative and innovative solutions to client challenges, activating real growth across all facets of technology law.
• Deliver exceptionally high-quality, detailed legal work that sets us apart.
• Take ownership of key client relationships and matters.
• Act as a trusted guide, enabling tech innovators to achieve their objectives.
• Embrace complex problem-solving, proactively driving meaningful results.
• Cultivate productive relationships internally and externally.
• Provide pragmatic, actionable legal advice, fostering collaboration within our diverse global team.
• Our Partners require true excellence. You’ll have a track record as a 10 year PQE Lawyer or Solicitor.
• You are a super-star generalist passionate about the diverse challenges faced by tech clients yet with deep experience in one or more areas such as Corporate, Commercial, Data & Privacy, IP or Financing.
• Our niceties include being dual-qualified in another jurisdiction, experience from both high-level external legal services and in-house roles with a robust professional network.
• You think critically, are intellectually curious, and a highly resourceful problem-solver.
• Adept at understanding and integrating emerging technologies, particularly AI, into legal practice to enhance client solutions and firm efficiency.
• You’re a natural communicator who connects authentically with startup/scaleup founders and C-suite teams, understanding their unique challenges.
• You work creatively, finding pragmatic solutions even within incomplete information.
• Proficiency in breaking down complexity and developing logical, actionable strategies.
• You possess a self-starter mentality, comfortable working independently, taking ownership, and driving results.
• You have an adventurous, pioneering spirit ready to help lay the foundations for our success in the UK and EMEA!

What else you need to know

• Competitive compensation with both a bonus package and profit share program.
• Flexible working options: reduced hours or remote work from home, a coworking space, or other arrangements to suit you.
• Health and medical benefits.
• Exposure to the latest tech deals and trends in the industry.
