    Found in: Talent UK C2 - 8 hours ago

    Default job background
    Description
    We are currently looking for a litigator to work within our antitrust litigation team in London, which is active in cartel damages, abuse of dominance and other antitrust litigation in the UK courts and Competition Appeal Tribunal, including collective proceedings and class actions, and frequently coordinating competition litigation on a worldwide basis.

    Role Summary

    The team is widely regarded as the leading practice in the market, active in more of the major competition litigation cases than any other firm, and we have the largest dedicated antitrust litigation team in London. We act on the highest profile, and most cutting edge, antitrust litigation matters in the UK including Mastercard's defence against a £14bn class action in relation to multilateral interchange fees, and Volvo's global defence of damages litigation arising out of the EU's trucks cartel decision. The team has been described as a 'jewel in the crown' of Freshfields' global dispute resolution practice, and is at the heart of the firm's global antitrust litigation group.

    In addition to working on competition litigation and investigation matters, the successful candidate would have the opportunity to work with the firm's wider global investigations and class action practice. The team also undertakes EU and UK domestic public law and related regulatory litigation (including Brexit-related work), human rights cases, as well as broader commercial litigation and competition advisory work.

    Practice
    We are recognised as the market leader in competition litigation, financial disputes, global investigations and management of political, consumer and product risk. Our strong international commercial litigation capabilities have allowed us to act on the most significant cases in the market.

    Key Responsibilities and Deliverables

  • Draft complex witness statements, expert reports and pleadings.
  • Run project processes on significant cases and work towards being the lead associate.
  • Develop litigation skills, both procedural and substantive, and work closely with leading barristers, economists and other expert witnesses.
  • Draft letters/emails to client/other side.
  • Run document reviews and disclosure projects.
  • Attend mediation/settlement discussions and draft settlement agreements.
  • Enhance financial skills, including by working in close cooperation with expert economists.
  • Produce business development plans and work with our BD Manager to generate additional ideas.
  • Delegate to and mentor junior associates and trainees.
  • Participate in seminars/training to clients and other associates.
  • Establish profile and relationships with partners and clients, and in the market.

  • Key Requirements

  • Qualified lawyer qualified in England & Wales or a common law jurisdiction.
  • Strong technical and commercial abilities.
  • Intellectually able with top class academics.
  • A tenacious and enthusiastic approach to surpass the expectations of our clients.
  • Able to work effectively as part of a team and supervise more junior lawyers/trainees.
  • Highly effective communicator (both orally and in writing).
  • Able to take on a high degree of responsibility and manage a challenging workload.
  • Committed to providing an excellent service to our clients.
  • Proactive involvement in business development and knowledge management.
