Barrister/Solicitor-Advocate (Commercial Litigation)
High-quality cross-border commercial litigation/dispute resolution work - competitive low-tax salary - idyllic Caribbean lifestyle outside of the office.
This elite level offshore law firm is looking for a junior to mid-level barrister or solicitor-advocate, with commercial litigation experience, for its growing BVI office. Joining an experienced team you will gain exposure to some fantastic international work, much of which is likely to involve Asian based clients, such is the flow of business from that region into BVI. The workload will be broad and will suit someone who enjoys taking on responsibility and client contact. This is a great opportunity to join a team that has strong growth plans and which can provide an ideal platform for an ambitious lawyer.
You will be UK qualified, admitted to the Bar or a qualified solicitor-advocate, and you are likely to have around 3-5 years' relevant experience. You can expect a competitive low-tax salary, full benefits and a good relocation allowance.
