Melbourne, Victoria, Australia K&L Gates Australia Full time

About the Role

K&L Gates Australia seeks a skilled Intellectual Property Specialist to join their dynamic practice in Melbourne. With a strong emphasis on teamwork, you will have the opportunity to work with highly regarded partners and senior team members on a variety of patent-related matters.

This role presents an excellent chance for a qualified patent attorney (with at least 1-3 years' experience) to develop their commercial skills and gain expertise in patent drafting, filing, and prosecution. You will be responsible for:

  • Drafting, filing, and prosecuting patent applications in mechanical, electrical, software, and medical device technologies
  • Performing and advising on IP due diligence, patentability, registrability, IP strategy, and freedom to operate analyses

The ideal candidate will possess a degree in mechanical engineering or computer science, hands-on experience in drafting patent specifications, and demonstrated patent prosecution skills across these fields. Experience in patent searching is also essential.

A high level of client service is expected, as well as a mature approach to work and ability to work autonomously. A law degree and business development skills would be advantageous but are not essential.

K&L Gates promotes equal opportunities for all employees to progress in their careers through initiatives such as structured mentoring programs, professional development programs, strategic planning for business development, volunteering opportunities, and social events.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a global law firm with vast knowledge of the Australian legal marketplace. The successful candidate will be part of a collaborative environment that enables teams to provide exceptional client solutions.

Estimated Salary: AU$80,000 - AU$120,000 per annum, depending on experience and qualifications.
