Growth Opportunity: Interested in Becoming a Technical Specialist/Patent Agent?

By Stephen Albainy-Jenei

Growth opportunity available!  We are currently looking to add a Patent Agent/Technical Specialist to work closely with our legal staff. Working as part of the team, you can use your current scientific expertise to help with the legal issues that our firm is handling for our clients. 

The position involves defining new inventions, providing scientific advice and oversight in patent prosecution matters, preparing patent applications for filing, prosecuting patents, reviewing and researching patent applications and third party intellectual property rights, and assisting with other legal matters. Candidates should have an advanced degree in a biological or chemical field (Ph.D. preferred), with a concentration in analytical chemistry, biochemistry, biotechnology, organic, medicinal or pharmaceutical chemistry, or a closely related field.

For the right candidate, we are willing to hire a specialist without any previous patent experience.   We are dedicated to helping an individual succeed both professionally and personally and we can be quite flexible in our arrangements.  This can be a tremendous opportunity for someone who would like to make a switch from laboratory research to a growing patent career.  We can work with the candidate to provide an alternative/flexible work arrangement and schedule. 

All that is required is an ability to effectively communicate complex technical issues and a demonstrated ability to work in a team environment and with others at all levels of the organization. We are looking for dynamic individuals who are flexible and enjoy being challenged (and having some fun). In return, the successful candidate will receive intensive training in patent prosecution and will work closely with patent attorneys.

Please feel free to call or email me directly in confidence to talk about your particular situation.
