Job Description

We are working with a highly regarded, conflict-free disputes boutique as it expands its presence into Asia with a new office in Singapore. This is an exciting opportunity to join at an early stage and work closely with the new Singapore Partner.
The firm has an impressive track record of handling complex, high-value international disputes for an exceptional client base that includes HNW individuals, sovereigns, family offices, funds, and corporates. Its matters frequently involve:

• Complex commercial disputes
• Fraud and asset recovery
• Shareholder and joint venture disputes
• Breach of trust and fiduciary duty claims
• International arbitration and cross-border enforcement issues

The successful candidate will:

• Be Singapore-qualified (around 3-4 years' PQE) with a strong grounding in disputes work
• Legal study (whether undergraduate or postgraduate) at an English university would be very highly regarded
• Have trained and gained post-qualification experience with a leading international or top-tier Singapore firm
• Possess demonstrable experience in international arbitration or foreign-law disputes work - exposure to English-law governed matters will be a distinct advantage
• Demonstrate an international outlook and strong commercial instincts
• Be comfortable working closely with clients and taking early responsibility in a small, but growing team

This opportunity will suit someone looking to leverage high-quality disputes experience in a boutique setting, where you will have direct client contact, early autonomy, and the chance to help shape a new practice. It will particularly appeal to Lawyers with an international background, who are keen to base themselves in Singapore while maintaining an outward-facing, cross-border practice.
To find out more about this role and others we are handling, please get in touch in complete confidence.
