RARE PARTNER LEVEL OPPORTUNITY | LEADING OFFSHORE LAW FIRM | BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS A market-leading offshore firm is seeking a Corporate Partner to add further strength to their well-established British Virgin Islands team. This is an exceptional opportunity to play a key role in the ongoing development of the corporate practice and the growth of the wider office. It may suit an experienced offshore lawyer seeking an excellent platform on which to build the next stage of their career, or a successful onshore lawyer with a track record of excellence in an international firm. In either case, you will need to be able to demonstrate a strong market profile and an aptitude for client management and business development. Taking a lead on client and matter management, you will be exposed to a wide range of work spanning banking and finance, capital markets, M&A, FinTech/digital assets, investment funds/regulatory, private equity, and venture capital.

If that’s you, you will love it here. Not to mention that the work, much of it emanating out of Asia, is some of the most interesting and challenging in the sector. Package Very strong USD base salary, a good bonus, benefits and a comprehensive relocation package (if required). BVI has a low tax rate and a reasonable cost of living.
