Job Details

A major offshore firm in the BVI is looking to add two UK Barristers or Solicitors (with Higher Rights) to its highly regarded litigation practice. The BVI is the offshore jurisdiction that offers the most amount of advocacy and hence law firms typically seek/attract candidates with court experience. There is not a requirement to be a finished product however, as the firm will assist with training/furthering your career. 

The successful candidate must be admitted in the UK and will have a predominantly commercial background, preferably financial services based. Insolvency experience will be beneficial but is certainly not required. 

The work on offer will be varied and of the highest quality, with a truly global scope. Litigators already offshore are also strongly encouraged to apply. 

The British Virgin Islands’ are a stunning collection of islands and is renowned for having one of the highest standards of living in the Caribbean, whilst cost of living remains below most of the other Islands. Powdery white-sand beaches, lush green mountains, and a sheltered yacht-filled harbour characterize the island of Tortola which is where the business district is located. 

For more information, please email michael@offshorelegaljobs.com. All inquiries will be handled with the utmost discretion and your CV will never go anywhere without your prior knowledge and consent.
