Corporate Lawyer – Major Offshore law firm – British Virgin Islands

An opening has arisen for a mid-level corporate lawyer to join a small, high-calibre corporate team in the BVI office of an elite Global offshore law firm. Working closely with some of the leading Partners in the market you can expect bags of responsibility and involvement, and an opportunity to get properly involved in business development, not to mention a diet of high-quality international work.

You will be qualified in the UK and you are likely to have around three to five years’ pqe in high-value corporate work, gained with a strong UK/International law firm. This is a great opportunity to develop your skills and expertise far more quickly than might be the case in a larger more rigid team.

If you’re looking for a complete sea change from city life, without compromising on your legal career, few locations can match the BVI. This beautiful, remote part of the Caribbean offers some of the world’s very best sailing and water sports, with pristine sandy beaches and a relaxed but lively social scene. In the office, you can expect to be working on huge international matters, often in collaboration with the elite onshore firms. Much of the work flows from Asia meaning a transfer to Hong Kong or Singapore is likely to be seamless, should you find yourself needing a fix of City life.
