Strong demand for lawyers across the Middle East
The Middle East legal recruitment market is currently booming with opportunities available for qualified lawyers across the region. Demand is high in the UAE, particularly in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, but other countries such as Bahrain, Qatar and Kuwait also offer excellent opportunities to qualified lawyers looking to work for international organisations on a tax-free package. The Middle East offers high living standards, good schools, tax-free salaries, excellent quality of work and superb career progression.
We are currently recruiting for in-house legal jobs in the Middle East across all industry sectors. There is currently high demand across financial services, banking, real estate, energy, media, telecommunications and oil & gas. Opportunities exist for lawyers making their first move into an in-house role, as well as for experienced in-house lawyers with a minimum of two years post qualified experience up to senior Heads of Legal. Demand for lawyers in private practice is strong across all disciplines and at all levels with a particular emphasis on construction, real estate, project finance, banking/finance, general corporate, Islamic finance and energy. Experience gained in the local market is highly valued, however it is certainly possible to move from the UK, US, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa or Canada into an international firm based in the Middle East.
