The work on offer is diverse & sophisticated and would suit those that are keen to maintain a breadth of work with an emphasis on large scale litigation and arbitration.

• professional negligence matters (including directors' duties)
• contract, fund & trust disputes

To be considered it is expected that applicants will have a strong academic pedigree, be admitted to practice in a Common Law/Offshore jurisdiction and have gained their experience to date (circa 5+ PQE) within a recognised international disputes practice. Alternatively, barristers currently at practice with a leading commercial chambers would also be urged to make themselves known, as it is felt the variety and scope of work on offer, allied to significant responsibility and independence, would be a good fit. 

Regional experience is advantageous but not essential, as are Chinese language skills, but a long-term commitment to building a career in Hong Kong is very important, as is a genuine ability to work well within a small, collegiate team environment.
