Commercial Litigation Lawyer

1+ years’ pqe – English qualified – Commercial Litigation (Solicitor or Barrister) – British Virgin Islands

This large offshore firm is looking for a commercial litigation lawyer to join its highly regarded dispute resolution team in the British Virgin Islands. The role is likely to suit someone with at least one years’ post-qualification experience gained from a top-tier City/equivalent law firm. Admission in England & Wales is essential.

On a professional level the role offers hands-on exposure to high-value international commercial litigation of the highest quality. Joining a fairly small team you will work closely with Partners and senior lawyers (largely ex-City) but will also have every opportunity to take on responsibility and to develop the kind of client facing experience that can take years to get in London. Experience gained in BVI is respected globally, making this a sound career step for an ambitious lawyer with international aspirations. The role comes with an attractive low-tax salary, full benefits and relocation.  

Outside of work, BVI offers an idyllic outdoor lifestyle that revolves around its enviable climate and stunning natural environment. A world-class location for diving, sailing and watersports, it will be equally appealing to someone who wants to combine a high-end legal career with weekends or evenings lazing on some of the Caribbean’s best beaches. (Don’t take our word for it – stick ‘beaches in Tortola’ into a search engine!)
