Job description

You are a Qualified Patent Attorney (CPA or EPA) with a Biotechnology background looking for a firm that can offer a greater range of clients, better training opportunities and a clearer career path beyond qualification. You may be currently working in an IP private practice, law firm or in-house department. Progressive ‘Finalist’ level Attorneys aiming to qualify in 2024 will also be seriously considered.

Technical backgrounds that would be desirable include Biochemistry, Biology and Immunology as the breadth of caseloads available from this team is especially rich and varied. They work with an impressive portfolio of clients to include global pharmaceutical companies, UK incubators and start-ups, Universities and associated spinouts offering some truly pioneering caseloads.

This Tier 1 European IP firm is committed to delivering insightful, innovative, and commercially relevant IP advice to all their clients, whilst providing a depth and breadth of knowledge and expertise that is unrivalled. Their collaborative and flexible approach to client-management enables their Attorneys to be responsive and able to provide a high-quality, cost-effective IP service at all levels of experience.

Their working culture is wholly transparent, and unlike more traditional practices, they value the quality of legal and technical advice to clients as a higher priority than performance tables – a refreshing approach to engage and motivate Attorneys to produce their best work and advice consistently.
