Job title:
Patent Attorney (Newly Qualified), Dynamics (Mechanical Engineering)
Discipline: Mechanical Engineering
Technologies: Ability to work in the field of mechanical engineering including electromechanical systems, control systems, robotics, manufacturing, fluid mechanics.
Preferred minimum level of qualification: Chartered & European Patent Attorney with experience in the relevant technologies since joining the patent profession.
EIP tech group: EIP Dynamics
Term: Permanent, Full-time (three days in the office & two days working from home)
EIP is award-winning and specializes in high-value and complex patents with offices in Europe and the US. Our multidisciplinary team combines patent attorneys, litigators, and commercial IP lawyers in three of the world's main patent markets - Germany, UK, and USA, and now also in the Nordics through our recent expansion into Sweden.
The approach to progress is highly meritocratic, with patent attorneys at all levels receiving support through a sophisticated training program. New trainees get exposure to clients from the day of joining.
About EIP Dynamics
EIP Dynamics is our mechanical and electrical engineering practice, which advises start-ups, SMEs, and multinationals in a wide range of industries, including aerospace, automotive, marine, transport & logistics, household appliances, computer hardware, consumer goods, and packaging.
The team works closely with companies to get a deep understanding of their businesses and markets and help them achieve their commercial objectives by obtaining tailored patent protection, defending patent rights when their validity is attacked, and managing risks posed by third-party patent rights.
About the role
EIP Dynamics is looking for a newly qualified patent attorney to join our Bath office. The practice is continuing to develop at a rapid rate and we are looking for a talented professional to help out with increased work demands from existing clients and new work demands from recent client acquisitions.
Typically, the subject-matter of the technical work will include manufacturing, transport (e.g. marine and aeronautical), packaging, and consumer product technologies. This is almost exclusively direct client work on behalf of UK-based and multinational companies across various sectors.
A large portion of the work will be drafting patent applications, with prosecution and advice work (such as freedom-to-operate, infringement & validity) making up much of the remainder. There is scope to handle registered designs work.
Experience, skills & qualifications
You will be comfortable working in a modern, fast-paced environment where you are given a level of autonomy to do your work. You will be a newly qualified attorney, ideally both UK and European qualified. Applicants with just UK or European qualification will be considered, as will those with 1 or 2 exams remaining.

An appropriate professional attitude (personable, well-prepared, flexible, and enthusiastic)
Excellent written and oral communication skills
Ability to express complex ideas clearly and concisely
Ability to deal with a variety of people at different levels
Ability to balance knowledge of intellectual property law against commercial requirements
