Corporate Lawyer – Associate to Counsel level - Global offshore law firm - Bermuda
Life in paradise doesn’t have to mean compromising on your career. This large offshore law firm is undergoing a period of rapid expansion across its network of global offices, nowhere more so than in Bermuda where it is goes from strength to strength. It is keen to bolster its corporate team and is particularly interested in speaking to lawyers with experience of advising clients in the financial services and/or investment funds sector. It can accommodate the right person at any level from Associate through to Counsel, so all UK/Commonwealth qualified corporate lawyers with at least three years’ pqe (required for work permit reasons) are encouraged to get in touch.
Joining a team led by some of the best corporate partners on the island, you will be advising an international client base on the Bermuda law elements of high-value cross-border transactions. All lawyers are client facing and encouraged to play an active role in business development, making this ideal for someone seeking long-term career progression as well as a change from the typical City law firm. The low-tax salary and package is attractive.
Bermuda
Bermuda offers you the opportunity to live and work in one of the world’s most desirable locations. The island benefits from a mild year-round climate, never too cold in the winter and rarely too hot in the summer. It is famed for its picture-postcard ‘pink sand beaches and crystal-clear ocean, but it also has plenty of history and boasts all the attractions associated with a lively and popular luxury holiday destination. And if you should need a break from island life, with regular direct flights to London, New York and other parts of the US, it is particularly well connected.
