This premier offshore law firm is committed to significant growth in its BVI office and is seeking a commercial litigation lawyer to join a team that is handling some outstanding international work. You will enjoy front-line exposure, taking on loads of responsibility and routinely dealing with clients, making this an opportunity to fast-track your development but in a friendly, collegiate environment.

The role will ideally suit a UK qualified lawyer with around three to five years’ relevant experience. Higher-rights would be an asset but are not essential for the right person. A background in a good commercial law firm or chambers will be expected.
