Are you a Patent Attorney with a strong interest in software and AI?

This is an exciting opportunity to join an innovative patent practice where technology sits at the heart of both the client work and the way the team operates.

The firm is experiencing continued growth in demand for its specialist expertise and is looking to add talented Patent Attorneys who can contribute to a high-quality portfolio of software and AI work.

The Opportunity

You’ll work with an impressive international client base, advising on inventions across the software and artificial intelligence landscape. Your work will span the patent lifecycle, with a particular emphasis on drafting, prosecution and contentious matters.

A key attraction is the firm's progressive approach to using AI within its own patent practice. You'll have the opportunity to embrace new technologies and explore smarter ways of delivering exceptional results for clients, rather than simply working with AI as a subject matter.

You'll also benefit from exposure to complex and innovative inventions and the opportunity to collaborate with colleagues across international offices and teams.

What we're looking for

We're keen to hear from Patent Attorneys who can demonstrate:

  • Strong experience of patent drafting, particularly within software and/or AI.
  • A genuine interest in the development and application of AI within the patent profession.
  • The ability to understand sophisticated technical concepts and translate them into effective patent strategies.
  • A proactive, curious and commercially minded approach.
  • Excellent attention to detail and a strong sense of ownership over your work.
  • A collaborative mindset and enthusiasm for working with colleagues across different jurisdictions.

The successful candidate will be someone who enjoys working in an intellectually demanding environment and is motivated by the opportunity to continually develop their expertise.

Why consider this opportunity?

This is a chance to join an award-winning patent practice with an international footprint and a reputation for handling sophisticated, high-value IP matters.

The firm combines technical excellence with a modern, technology-led approach and places considerable emphasis on collaboration, innovation and professional development.

The firm also offers a comprehensive benefits package, flexible hybrid working, alongside a strong commitment to creating an inclusive workplace.
