UK Commercial Tech Associates (2+ PQE) – Relocate to New Zealand for Lifestyle and Career Benefits

We are working with a leading firm in New Zealand that is on a recruitment drive, specifically targeting UK-qualified associates to join the commercial/technology team.

The team handles a wide range of commercial matters, specifically focussing on technology solutions and services in relation to some of the most high-profile and complex technology projects in the market.  As part of an expansive practice, the team also delves into the emerging technologies market, addressing matters concerning blockchain and AI for example.

Associates are actively encouraged to develop their interaction with an extensive client-base, which will include leading technology companies, major corporates and even local authorities.  The high-quality work on offer, in addition to regular client interaction, will only serve to bolster professional development. 

Relocating to New Zealand can be a lucrative long-term move as UK lawyers are held in high-regard – many partners in leading firms in the region would have trained and qualified in the UK.  With the uncertainty of Brexit affecting the London market, this is an opportune time for associates to move to New Zealand for better career prospects (including the exposure to another jurisdiction), better weather and a more affordable lifestyle. 

The successful candidate will have at least 2 years of PQE, and they must have prior commercial/technology experience at an established firm in London or any other regional hub.
