About the firm:


Our client is a dynamic, highly profitable mid-sized law firm with a distinguished track record in arbitration and related court proceedings. The team has extensive experience across major international arbitration rules and institutions, including UNCITRAL, ICC, ICSID, DIFC, LCIA, SIAC, CIETAC, SCC, WIPO, as well as trade arbitrations such as LMAA and GAFTA, and proceedings under the Arbitration Act 1996.


The arbitration group represents both claimants and respondents across diverse sectors, including infrastructure, insurance, oil & gas, energy, real estate, leisure, and major projects. With a partner-led approach, our lawyers provide strategic guidance and support from appointment through to enforcement.


Many of their Partners, Senior Associates, and Associates are active members of leading national and international arbitral groups, ensuring strong connections within the global arbitration community.


One of the fastest-growing areas of their disputes practice is in Sub-Saharan Africa, where they are handling significant new instructions in both investor-state and commercial arbitration, alongside high-value High Court litigation.


Current matters being handled include:

  • Commercial Court Commodities dispute
  • Telecoms Commercial Arbitration
  • Supreme Court appeal
  • Maritime arbitration
  • Oil & Gas Arbitration


The ideal International Arbitration Associate / Commercial Litigation Associate:


To support this growth, they are seeking an accomplished International Arbitration Associate / Commercial Litigation Associate and candidates with 3 to 6 years PQE will be considered to join their Africa-focused team.


You will likely have a background including:

  • Experience gained at a leading international law firm with a strong reputation in international arbitration.
  • A background acting for commercial clients or representing states in Sub-Saharan Africa.
  • Proven experience in High Court commercial litigation.
  • A track record of technical excellence, strong client relationships, and the ability to contribute strategically to the continued growth of their Africa practice.


What’s on Offer

  • The opportunity to work alongside one of the UK’s leading solicitors renowned for pioneering work in Sub-Saharan Africa.
  • Exposure to some of the largest and most high-profile arbitration cases in the region.
  • Extensive travel opportunities across the African continent.
  • A collaborative, partner-led environment committed to professional development.
