Our international client is looking for an experienced intellectual property lawyer for a unique knowledge role that would be ideal for individuals looking to move away from the traditional fee earning side of work.

Key responsibilities will include:

• Keeping the IP Disputes team briefed on relevant case law and other legal and procedural change; preparing and distributing reader-friendly and relevant internal and client alerts/bulletins/updates
• Supporting IP work as part of the Transformations themes.
• Organising IP know-how sharing, including authoring and collecting external and internal know-how, storing it in the knowledge database, and arranging and managing know-how sharing sessions.
• Organising the IP Disputes team's legal training programme and deliver some of the substantive training sessions.
• Developing and maintaining an up-to-date and technically excellent collection of IP precedent documents - including sector specific precedents - - following an assessment of fee earner needs.
