Job description

TMT Lawyer Senior Associate 4+ PQE, London

We work closely with a leading international law firm and are currently searching for a Senior Associate to join the firm's leading TMT practice, with a particular interest in digital infrastructure experience. The team operates at the forefront of the global digital landscape, advising major technology businesses, infrastructure providers, telecoms operators and government bodies on mandates that shape the future of connectivity and data‑driven industries.

The successful candidate will integrate into a truly broad and interesting practice but are particularly interested where an individual has gained experience in digital infrastructure matters, including data centre development, towers, fibre, satellite and broader telecoms projects. The team handles a broad mix of work generally and lawyers are encouraged to develop across multiple areas, including commercial technology agreements, digital regulatory matters, personal data in transactions, AI governance and emerging tech landscapes. There is also exposure to investigations and compliance matters, with some contentious elements retained in‑house rather than pushed out.

They are interested in speaking with lawyers who have experience in digital infrastructure, telecoms or large‑scale technology projects, or those with adjacent experience who want to deepen their exposure in this space while still working across the wider TMT practice.

• Gain exposure to digital infrastructure within a leading global TMT practice
• Data centre, fibre, towers and satellite work with major market players
• Opportunities to expand across commercial tech, AI and digital regulatory matters
• High‑profile mandates for tech companies, telecoms operators and government bodies
• A strategic hire with strong career prospects
