Employment Counsel - Bermuda

6 days ago Be among the first 25 applicants Direct message the job poster from Origin Legal Ltd Specialist in International and Offshore Legal RecruitmentEmployment Counsel – Bermuda It’s not often that a role arises for a senior employment lawyer to make an offshore move, so if you’re pondering a complete change of scene, but don’t wish to compromise your career or your earning potential, this one is worth a look. Our client is searching for someone with the experience and gravitas to command the confidence of high-calibre clients, both employers and senior executives. You will take a lead on a varied workload that leans towards the contentious side, including all related court work and tribunals, but still involves non-contentious advisory work on a wide array of employment matters. In addition, you will also advise clients on the full gamut of immigration matters, so you will need to gain knowledge of and then stay up to date with developments in Bermudian immigration regulations. This is a busy role with plenty of scope for growth, and it will suit someone who is passionate about their work but who craves a different environment, not only outside of the office but also in terms of the firm’s culture. Requirements Significant experience of advising high-value employer/executive clients, gained with a respected commercial law firm in the UK/Australia/NZ/Canada or in an offshore financial centre. Non-Bermudian lawyers must be admitted in the UK or an equivalent Commonwealth jurisdiction (such as Australia, New Zealand, Canada or South Africa). Likely to suit someone with at least 8 years’ PQE (minimum 3 years’ PQE required for work permit). Package Comprehensive benefits and bonus. Relocation package (flights + temporary accommodation on arrival + expenses allowance). Process Interviews will take place by videoconference Start dates negotiable - typically around 3-6 months later (depending on your notice period). Our clients provide comprehensive assistance with visas and relocation. Bermuda Bermuda offers you the opportunity to live and work in one of the most sought-after locations on the planet. The island benefits from a mild year-round climate, never too cold in the winter and rarely too hot in the summer. It is famed for its picture-postcard pink sand beaches and crystal-clear ocean, but it also has plenty of history and boasts all the attractions associated with a luxury holiday destination. And if you should need a break from island life, with regular direct flights to London, New York and other parts of the US, it is particularly well connected.
