Description
Two major offshore firms are now looking to recruit UK Barristers for their BVI litigation practices. The teams predominantly handle high profile cross border disputes, mostly relating to offshore structures, corporate and commercial disputes, insolvency, asset tracing, trusts, funds and shareholders disputes.
Whilst each role will be varied, candidates aren’t expected to have gained experience in all the areas listed above. More important will be a can-do attitude, strong technical ability and client handling skills. Candidates must be UK admitted and ideally from leading commercial sets in the city. A very attractive offshore package is on offer and will be paid commensurate with experience. Income tax (paid by the employee) in the BVI is just 8%.
The British Virgin Islands’ are a stunning collection of islands and is renowned for having one of the highest standards of living in the Caribbean, whilst cost of living remains far below most of the other Islands. Powdery white-sand beaches, lush green mountains, and a sheltered yacht-filled harbour characterize the island of Tortola which is where the business district is located.
