Employer Profile

One hundred years old in 2010, Mathys & Squire are an expanding firm of Patent and Trade Mark attorneys advising on all aspects of Intellectual Property. We seek to combine technical expertise, specialist legal skills and commercial awareness to help maximise our clients’ rewards from innovation and minimise their risks in bringing that innovation to market.

Our requirements
We seek to recruit the very brightest and best graduates with a background in science or engineering and strong communication skills. Our business is focused on providing added value to our clients, so an appreciation of the commercial implications of intellectual property is important.

Your development
We are large enough to attract the highest quality clients, from household names to emerging technologies, while small enough to be friendly and personal. We have a sufficient number of trainees at each level of qualification that all trainees benefit from the experience of those ahead of them, as well as from the support of others within their peer group. We also have an informal and friendly atmosphere; we know that hard work must be balanced with recreation and relaxation.

In order to help prepare you for professional examinations we provide access to external courses and internal tuition. All of our trainees work under the direct supervision of a partner or associate, taking more personal responsibility for clients and cases as they develop.

We recruit with the long term in mind, and our aim is to train those who join us to be future partners of the firm. In return we offer a stimulating environment and a well rewarded career.
