About Eversheds
Eversheds' Commercial division works closely with many leading businesses and household names to help them develop effective strategies for managing their Iintellectual Property portfolios. We are on hand to ensure that the IP they and their employees create is protected and, where appropriate, enforced and exploited. We also have one of the most highly regarded media and entertainment practices in the world acting for the biggest names in the media sector.
We require a 2 to 3 year PQE Solicitor to join our busy and highly regarded Intellectual Property/Media team in London. You will support the partners and senior lawyers in providing first rate client service on a range of Intellectual Property/Media matters for key clients of the firm.
Key responsibilities:
You will have the opportunity to work on a variety of matters including (but not limited to):
· Advertising, sponsorship and marketing
· Branding & trade marks
· Media
· Patents
· Reputation Management
· Corporate/transactional support
You will also be expected to manage your own matters working closely with senior lawyers and you will have regular client contact and appropriate responsibility. Everyone in the team is encouraged to get involved in networking and business development events.
Skills and experience:
You will have good general experience in commercial and IP work and, ideally, have completed the Oxford Postgraduate Diploma in IP Law. You will relish the opportunity to work on a wide ranging caseload often involving household name clients and involvement in multi-jurisdictional advice.
Key competencies:
To be successful, you must be able to operate at a fast pace in a vibrant open plan environment. You will be academically strong with experience of working on complex matters. You will use your strong communication skills to build effective relationships with existing and new clients and with other teams within the firm.
We're a modern, progressive law firm. We think differently and we've built a culture where individual skills and personalities can shine through. At Eversheds, we believe that innovation comes from a culture of genuine equality and diversity and we are happy to discuss any reasonable adjustments individuals may require in the recruitment process, or once in post.
Eversheds endeavours to recruit and fill vacancies directly. However, when we do need to engage with agencies, Eversheds operates within a preferred supplier list.
