London, Greater London, United Kingdom Carpmaels & Ransford Full time

Job Title: Patent Attorney - Chemistry Team

Carpmaels & Ransford is a leading European intellectual property law firm that advises some of the world's leading healthcare companies. Our passionate and award-winning team of life scientists, engineers, and regulatory experts provides innovative solutions to complex challenges.

The Chemistry Team

The Chemistry team supports some of the world's leading pharmaceutical and chemical companies and research institutions. We help protect research on ground-breaking therapeutics and their delivery, as well as exciting technologies in the fields of polymer chemistry, catalysts, batteries, metallurgy, nanotechnology, cleantech, electrochemistry, petrochemicals, cosmetics, surfactants, and food chemistry.

Our Work

Our work is commercially focused, and most is contentious in nature. We are regularly instructed in multi-party oppositions and litigation support, as well as SPCs and associated regulatory issues including data protection and orphan exclusivities.

Who We Are Looking For

We have ongoing opportunities for exceptional part-qualified or qualified patent attorneys to join our Chemistry team. We embrace diversity and would like to hear from talented and passionate individuals from a wide range of backgrounds. You enjoy thinking strategically and working collaboratively and are passionate about using your technical excellence to deliver a first-class service to our clients.

Suitable Candidates Will Ideally Have

  • Part-qualification in the UK and EQE exams through to 3 years of post-qualification experience.
  • Management of a broad spectrum of chemical and/or pharmaceutical work.
  • Experience of drafting, filing, and prosecuting EPO and PCT applications.
  • An understanding of EPO opposition and appeal procedure, and preferably some experience of contentious oral proceedings, although not necessarily in a speaking role.
  • An excellent academic background ideally with an emphasis on organic chemistry or pharmaceutical subject matter.
  • A sense of commerciality: an appreciation of how IP and regulatory data protection impact the life cycle of a product.
  • An excellent command of both written and spoken English, and strong interpersonal skills.
  • Excellent time management and organisational skills.
  • An innate interest in the world of business as well as the IP profession.
  • A passion and aptitude for problem-solving.
  • A keen eye for detail.
  • An interest in coaching, guiding, and mentoring trainees as appropriate.

Successful Candidates Will Benefit From

  • A variety of interesting work for major international chemical and pharmaceutical companies, including EPO opposition and appeal work.
  • A significant amount of opposition, appeal, and SPC matters.
  • Involvement in cases that shape the law before the Technical Boards of Appeal, the Enlarged Board of Appeal, and/or the Court of Justice of the European Union.
  • A collaborative and sociable team-based working environment, with a healthy approach to work/life balance.
  • A meritocratic and autonomous culture, where you will be responsible for your own case-load and work for multiple partners.
  • Exceptional training for UK and EQE qualifications and beyond.
  • The opportunity to work across multiple practice groups, subject to project requirements and area of expertise.
  • An excellent remuneration and benefits package.
  • A range of sports, clubs, and charity initiatives sponsored by the firm.
