The Role

The successful candidate must have solid non-contentious music and entertainment experience gained with a leading entertainment law firm and/or in-house. A portable client base is desirable, but not essential.

You must be a self-starter, commercially savvy and able to think “outside the box”.

You will need to work independently and creatively but also as part of a team with a view to becoming an integral part of our business.

You will have excellent technical, analytical, research, drafting, communication and client care skills and the ability to work well under pressure and to meet tight deadlines.

We are looking for someone who is enthusiastic, a lover of hard work and rising to a challenge and who will be proactive in seeking new clients and work.

Above all, we are a friendly office and try to encourage a sense of family, belonging and fun. A good sense of humour is paramount!

Salary

Salary will be commensurate with experience.
