Senior IP Legal Assistant – Trade Marks
📍 London (Hybrid Working Available)
💰 £48,000–£55,000 DOE
🕓 Full-Time | Permanent

We're working with a top-tier Patent & Trade Mark firm who are looking to bring on a Senior IP Legal Assistant to join their Trade Mark team.

This is a brilliant opportunity for someone with solid trade mark experience to step into a senior-level support role, offering high-quality assistance to specific fee earners – without the traditional PA duties.

You’ll be a key part of a well-structured legal support team, contributing to a fast-paced and dynamic department that values technical expertise and proactive client service.

🔍 What they're looking for:

  • CITMA Qualified – this is essential

  • A solid background in Trade Mark prosecution and legal support

  • Experience working in an IP firm or within a legal practice with strong IP exposure

  • A confident communicator with excellent attention to detail

  • Someone who enjoys handling client work, filings, document management, and end-to-end prosecution tasks

🚫 What this role isn’t:

  • This is not a PA role – there’s no diary management, no travel booking, and no scheduling

  • It’s not suited for someone with purely formalities/records experience – the role is broader and more strategic

  • Not a junior-level post – you’ll be expected to work independently and bring a senior mindset to the team

This firm offers clear pathways for growth, hybrid working, and the chance to be part of a supportive team in one of the most respected names in IP.

📩 Interested? Apply now or reach out for a confidential chat.
