[Hiring] Trademark Specialist @Polara

Role Description

Registering a trademark should be simple. For most founders and small businesses, it isn’t: it’s slow, expensive and confusing. We're serial founders building a company which is tackling the problem. We combine smart technology with real trademark expertise, so that routine work runs smoothly and experts can focus on the work that actually matters. We’re early, ambitious and looking for the person who will shape the legal heart of our product.

• File and manage EU trademark applications for our clients
• Review searches and classifications and give clear, practical advice
• Help design the processes behind our product: what can be standardised and where an expert has to look
• Be the trusted trademark voice for our clients and our team
• Help us grow a team of trademark professionals over time

Qualifications

• At least five years of hands-on trademark practice before a national or regional IP office in the EU
• Ideally, you’re already listed as a professional representative at the EUIPO. If not, we’ll support you in getting listed
• Curiosity about how technology can make legal work better, without losing quality
• Enjoyment of building something new rather than following a fixed path
• Fluency in English

Requirements

Please note: the role involves representing our clients, so it isn’t compatible with an active admission to the bar (e.g. as advocaat in the Netherlands or Belgium, or advokat in Denmark or Sweden).

Benefits

• Above-average pay including an equity package
• Fully remote: work from home (European Union)
• 100% flexible: you decide when you work and whether it’s part-time or full-time
• A real say in how a new kind of trademark service is built
• A small, ambitious team with short decision paths
