Are you an ambitious Patent Attorney with a passion for cutting-edge technology and artificial intelligence? This is a rare opportunity to join one of the most forward-thinking IP practices in the UK, where innovation and legal expertise go hand in hand.

Our client is a highly regarded firm with a global reputation for excellence across the technology and engineering sectors. As part of their growing AI and software practice, you’ll work with pioneering clients — from emerging start-ups and scale-ups to some of the world’s largest tech companies — advising on complex, high-value matters at the forefront of AI development.

The role:

• Drafting and prosecuting patent applications for a wide range of AI-related innovations, including machine learning, natural language processing, and data analytics.
• Providing strategic IP advice to clients developing novel software and hardware solutions.
• Managing a diverse portfolio of domestic and international clients, often working directly with inventors and R&D teams.
• Collaborating closely with other attorneys in cross-disciplinary areas such as computer vision, robotics, and quantum computing.

• Experience with AI or computer-implemented inventions is essential.

• Whether you’re seeking greater autonomy, higher-quality work, or a clearer progression path, this role offers all three in abundance.

What’s on offer:
