Stratagem IPM was formed in 1999, to respond to a need within the biotech industry for proactive management of clients’ intellectual property. Since then the company has expanded to cover all technologies and we have three offices, in Cambridge, Oxford and Bristol.

Our aim is to deliver a strategically different IP management service for our clients, based on understanding their specific requirements and providing clear and decisive advice. We work closely with clients, as if we are part of their business, and consider their IP from a commercial perspective, using our hands-on management approach to enhance the value of their IP assets.

Training

As a trainee or part-qualified attorney you are given responsibility at an early stage and have plenty of opportunity to meet with clients directly. Working closely with our qualified attorneys you will develop core skills along with an understanding of how to work commercially with clients.

As well as learning on the job, our trainees have the opportunity to attend a foundation course at Brunel University, followed by courses for both European and UK qualifications. Paid time off is given for courses and study days and there is the opportunity to attend in-person training in Europe.

Working at Stratagem

People are fundamental to Stratagem and we recognise that everyone plays a vital part in delivering a strategically different approach for our clients. We value and embrace the unique things that make us all individuals and believe this truly enhances our work and the firm.

We have a supportive, open culture and strive to do all we can to ensure that everyone enjoys their work in a collaborative and inclusive environment.
