A fantastic opportunity has emerged for a commercial/IP lawyer to join a leading media and entertainment company.
Working primarily to support the Licensing division, the successful candidate will have a great deal of autonomy whilst also assisting other lawyers in the Licensing legal team on an ad hoc basis. Required experience includes structuring, drafting and negotiating commercial contracts (such as product licensing, retail, events and IP licensing agreements) and providing advice on business issues as and when they arise. Experience in the media and entertainment industry is strongly preferred.
Much more information will made available upon request by suitable candidates.
To be considered, you should have c.2-4yrs PQE*, preferably having trained in a media law firm or have some in-house experience in a similar environment. Commercial drafting experience is required, with a strong preference shown to candidates with demonstrable understanding of IP.
*NB: PQE levels are offered as a guide only. Our clients will accept applications from all candidates who can demonstrate the skills necessary for the role.
Interested candidates should send their CV to Nick Wasserman for consideration. All successful candidates will be contacted within 5 working days of application. Due to the high volume of applications we receive, though, we are not always able to respond directly to everyone, but we will try our very best.
