London, United Kingdom Gill Jennings & Every LLP Full time

**Trainee Patent Attorney - IT & Engineering**

We are looking for ambitious graduates with a degree in electronic/IT engineering or physics to join our successful and expanding IT & Engineering practice group to start in **September 2023.**

As you will be exposed to a diverse range of cases and clients right from the start, excellent communication skills are a must. You should also have the ability and confidence to build effective working relationships and be able to offer straightforward and practical advice to your clients.

The firm encourages everyone to add value to the firm’s success, so alongside your main responsibilities you can choose to get involved in areas of business that interest you; be it helping with presentations and events, training and recruitment, writing articles or joining working groups to review internal processes and propose change. We always support our people to play to their strengths.

**What’s it like to work here**

Our structured 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 aim to qualify as both a European patent attorney and a Chartered (UK) patent attorney. We assist you in these studies through external courses and our extensive in-house training programme, as well as mentoring and coaching from senior attorneys, who are always happy to help.

We are based in modern offices in London’s Broadgate Tower where the edge of the City meets Shoreditch. Our culture is friendly, supportive, and collaborative, and within this environment you will take on real responsibility from an early stage. We offer a competitive salary (reviewed annually and upon exam success), great benefits & perks and a whole host of regular social events and wellbeing initiatives.

**Who we’re looking for**
- Degree in electronic/IT engineering or physics (2.1 or 1st);
- High academic achievement (mainly As and A*s in GCSE & A Levels or equivalent qualifications)
- Effective communication skills; and
- Excellent attention to detail.
