An international law firm with a highly regarded and well-established Privacy and Cyber practice in London is looking for an experienced Associate to join the team. The group is genuinely well known in this space, trusted by some of the world's best-known consumer brands and major technology companies, and has handled a number of high-profile cyber incidents.
About the team
This is a close-knit, senior team with a technically strong, collaborative culture and a clear focus on giving clients commercial, practical advice rather than just legal analysis. Much of the work spans multiple jurisdictions, so comfort coordinating international instructions and advice from overseas counsel would be an advantage.

Your work will cover the full breadth of privacy, cyber and digital regulatory practice, including:
- Advising multinational clients on privacy compliance, cyber readiness and online safety obligations
- Cross-border data transfer projects, including Binding Corporate Rules
- Drafting and negotiating data protection and privacy-related contractual terms
- Advising on the privacy and cyber angles of AI deployment and governance
- Responding to major cyber incidents, including breach notification and regulator liaison across jurisdictions
- Supporting clients through regulatory investigations and enforcement matters
- Keeping across fast-moving digital regulation as it develops
- Mentoring junior lawyers and contributing to the team's profile and business development
What they're looking for
Ideal candidates will have broad experience in some or all of the following, gained at a well-regarded UK or international firm and a strong academic background. Candidates are likely to be around the mid-associate level, though the firm is open to applications from those with more or less experience where the skillset is a strong fit.
