Commercial Litigation/Dispute Resolution – Solicitor or Barrister – Commonwealth qualified – attractive tax-free salary and benefits.

Are you a commercial litigation lawyer who is keen to maintain a high-value and complex caseload but who is tired of life in a big City law firm? If so, this opportunity with a top-tier offshore law firm could be just the solution.

Joining one of the leading commercial litigation and dispute resolution teams in the offshore world you will be working with colleagues who emanate from the pick of the onshore legal sector on a high-value contentious workload spanning the commercial, financial services and banking litigation remit. You will be client-facing with lots of responsibility and involvement from the outset, and you will have every opportunity to develop your skills and build your career.

You are likely to be a commercial litigation lawyer with 3 to 6 years’ relevant experience gained in a well-regarded City/international/offshore litigation team. Qualification in the UK or an equivalent Commonwealth jurisdiction is essential. You can expect a highly attractive tax-free salary with benefits and relocation allowance not to mention all of the advantages of a Caribbean lifestyle outside of work.
