Our client is a global shipping service provider. Due to a high volume of work, they are looking to utilise the assistance of an interim litigation/shipping claims Lawyer in the New Year on a project basis.
It is likely that the successful interim Lawyer will have experience in handling a range of claims and litigation matters within the shipping sector. Candidates are likely to be qualified Lawyers in England & Wales or another commonwealth jurisdiction (such as Australia and/or New Zealand, for example). Prior experience in handling litigation and/or claims within the shipping sector is essential. Language skills would also be highly beneficial (French, German, Spanish, and/or Italian, for example) but are not a prerequisite.
The successful Lawyer will likely be based in the UK, have exposure to working on claims and litigation matters within the shipping sector, and can expect to be engaged on an hourly or daily rate basis, depending on the project specifics. The successful interim litigation/claims counsel will work on a remote basis and work closely with the Group Legal Counsel.
Due to the specific nature of this requirement, the client is happy to review suitable Lawyers across a range of PQE levels.
Whilst projects are likely to start in the New Year, the end client is interested in reviewing profiles sooner rather than later.
