Brand new senior in-house patent attorney role within this globally recognised brand who are at the cutting edge of reinvention and innovation.
As part of their expansion plans within their fast-paced sector, they have instructed us to find a European qualified patent attorney to take on a key role in both leading on patent strategy and managing others to ensure its execution.
Candidates should ideally have circa 5 years' PQE, and demonstrable experience in managing junior colleagues and / or taking a lead on projects.
Strong communication skills are essential, as is the ability to engage with others who have differing levels of IP understanding.

With a technical background either in chemistry / life sciences or engineering / electronics, you will play an integral role in shaping and undertaking responsibility for invention mining / harvesting, drafting and advising on potential risks posed by third party patents in relation to pipeline products, implementing filing strategies to maximise competitive advantage, prosecution strategies, conducting robust search, identification and analysis of third party patent rights and advising stakeholders on risks as well as recommending opportunities for mitigation.
You'll thrive on collaborating with colleagues across all key functions of the business, including marketing and R&D, providing focused advice that drives the best commercial outcomes as well as external counsel and stakeholders too.
It's imperative that your interpersonal skills are excellent, and your ability to engage and communicate what may often be complex matters in a clear and coherent manner is paramount.
Based either out of London or on the South coast, and offering the flexibility of a hybrid working approach, this highly collaborative, inclusive and progressive organisation will provide the support to propel your career in the direction that engages and fulfils you the most.
Having partnered this client consistently over a number of years, our specialist consultants will be delighted to discuss this particular opportunity further in confidence: please contact Catherine French on 0113 467 9790 or via: catherine.french@saccomann.com or Claire Morgan on 0113 467 9799 or via: claire.morgan@saccomann.com

Brand new senior in-house patent attorney role within this globally recognised brand who are at the cutting edge of reinvention and innovation.
As part of their expansion plans within their fast-paced sector, they have instructed us to find a European qualified patent attorney to take on a key role in both leading on patent strategy and managing others to ensure its execution.
Candidates should ideally have circa 5 years' PQE, and demonstrable experience in managing junior colleagues and / or taking a lead on projects.
Strong communication skills are essential, as is the ability to engage with others who have differing levels of IP understanding.
Whilst some in-house experience may be beneficial in this respect, it is by no means essential.
With a technical background either in chemistry / life sciences or engineering / electronics, you will play an integral role in shaping and undertaking responsibility for invention mining / harvesting, drafting and advising on potential risks posed by third party patents in relation to pipeline products, implementing filing strategies to maximise competitive advantage, prosecution strategies, conducting robust search, identification and analysis of third party patent rights and advising stakeholders on risks as well as recommending opportunities for mitigation.
You'll thrive on collaborating with colleagues across all key functions of the business, including marketing and R&D, providing focused advice that drives the best commercial outcomes as well as external counsel and stakeholders too.
It's imperative that your interpersonal skills are excellent, and your ability to engage and communicate what may often be complex matters in a clear and coherent manner is paramount.
Based either out of London or on the South coast, and offering the flexibility of a hybrid working approach, this highly collaborative, inclusive and progressive organisation will provide the support to propel your career in the direction that engages and fulfils you the most.
Having partnered this client consistently over a number of years, our specialist consultants will be delighted to discuss this particular opportunity further in confidence: please contact Catherine French on 0113 467 9790 or via: catherine.french@saccomann.com or Claire Morgan on 0113 467 9799 or via: claire.morgan@saccomann.com
