THE ROLE

Adamson Jones has an excellent opportunity for a full time, self-motivated trademark administrator, who wishes to further their career in a growing trademarks team.
The successful candidate will need to be a highly organised individual with the ability to work well within a fast-paced environment. You will have solid knowledge of trademark rules and laws in multiple jurisdiction, having at least three years’ experience in a similar role. As a trademark administrator, you will be expected to work independently as well as in a team, ensuring high levels of accuracy and time management skills. A proactive approach to work and a commitment to high quality work is a necessity!

Duties will be wide-ranging within this role and will include:

• Preparing and filing UK, EU and worldwide trademark applications.
• Providing support to the trademark attorneys.
• Processing, checking, and reporting all stages of a trademark application.
• Liaising with both fee earners and clients.
• Preparing and filing registered design applications in the UK and overseas.
• Preparation of cost estimates.
• Maintaining the firm’s IP database with new and accurate information.
• Corresponding with overseas agents.
• Providing additional support to other members of the administration team where required.

If the successful candidate has not already passed the Paralegal Course offered by the Chartered Institute of Trademark Attorneys, we will provide full support obtaining that qualification at the appropriate time.
The full-time role (37.5 hours/week) is based in our Nottingham office, but consideration will also be given for the right candidate to work from our Birmingham office. Flexible hybrid working arrangements are also available once the initial training period has been completed.
An excellent salary is on offer for the individual that meets the company’s needs. Furthermore, the added benefits package is also one not to be missed! Gateley are fully embracing the new hybrid culture, so a mixture of both home and office working is available.
