My client is a leading UK law firm with a longstanding presence and excellent reputation in the Middle East. Their IP practice has been involved in the protection of intellectual property rights in the region for over twenty years. The team handles an enviable range of work (covering patents, trade marks, copyright, designs, domain names and trade secrets) for some of the most established global brands across many industries.
Due to the growth of their IP practice they are looking for a trademark solicitor to join their Dubai office. The role will involve the management of regional and global IP portfolios for a range of clients, including being the main IP/trademark contact for some of those clients.
The ideal candidate will be England & Wales qualified with up to 5 years' experience working in the IP practice of a leading international law firm, specialised in providing trademark specific advice. Candidates must be able to demonstrate a clear commitment to living and working in the Middle East. Arabic language skills are desired but not essential.
