Gill Jennings & Every LLP, Trainee Patent Attorney – IT & Engineering

Trainee Patent Attorney (degree: physics, electronics, IT or engineering)

We are looking for ambitious electronics, IT, engineering or physics graduates to join our successful and expanding IT & Engineering practice group to start in  September 2024.

Becoming a trainee Patent Attorney at GJE will start you on a fulfilling career journey towards full qualification as a European and UK Patent Attorney. You will apply the technical knowledge and expertise gained from your degree to your role in which you will gain skills in patent drafting, filing and prosecution.

You can expect to work with a wide range of exciting clients right from the start of your training – Multinational organisations like Proctor & Gamble, Sony Interactive Entertainment (Playstation) and Oracle, alongside SME’s, start-ups and University Spin-Outs. You will be mentored and guided by our expert attorneys who are at the top of their game, and supported by friendly and collaborative colleagues.

About Us

GJE LLP is one of the UK’s leading intellectual property firms and is consistently recognised by the leading UK legal directories. We are based in modern offices in London’s Broadgate Tower where the City of London meets vibrant Shoreditch. Our firm has a clearly defined strategic vision for where we are heading and an impressive track record to match. There are around 120 of us in our London office, so we’re small and friendly enough for you to get to know everyone – but big enough to offer you great career prospects.

Training and Mentoring

Our exceptional training programme will provide you with a year of on-the-job learning before enrolling you for the Postgraduate Certificate in Intellectual Property Law. Ultimately you will be working towards qualification as both a European patent attorney and a Chartered (UK) patent attorney. You will be exposed to real responsibility early on in your training, allowing you to acquire the skills you need to grow into a successful patent attorney and achieve great things.

We support you in these studies through external courses and our extensive in-house training programme. You will also greatly benefit from mentoring and coaching by our industry-leading and approachable senior attorneys, who are always happy to help.

Life as a Trainee Patent Attorney at GJE

Alongside working and studying for your professional exams we encourage you to get involved with areas of the business that interest you such as marketing and BD activities, Diversity and Inclusion initiatives and planning events with GJE’s social committee. Our open door policy means that senior staff are always interested in hearing feedback on our internal processes.

We offer a competitive salary (reviewed annually and upon exam success), hybrid-working great benefits & perks and a whole host of regular social events and wellbeing initiatives. We’re a friendly and supportive bunch and we think GJE is a great place to work – we have been recognised by Best Companies as a top 25 law firm to work for
