We have a deep understanding of all jurisdictions around the world and a strong focus on more challenging markets such as Africa, Asia and the Middle East. Most importantly, we’re passionate about IP and enjoy working with clients who share that passion. We put clients at the heart of our business and build long standing relationships. From large multinationals that want our scale, quality and professionalism, to start ups that value our entrepreneurial spirit, the companies we work with come from a broad range of sectors with diverse business interests and needs.

Your tasks

In the role of Patent Administrator you will have a varied and responsible job. You will work both independently and in a team and in close cooperation with our patent consultants. In this position you will correspond with both Swedish and foreign clients as well as agents and authorities. This will involve preparing documents before they are delivered to the Patent Office, communicating with external parties internationally, registering documents and monitoring them in our internal system Patricia. Report writing will be in both Swedish and English. Placement at client's premises may occur.

Who are you?

As for your personal qualities, we value your ability to cooperate and communicate. You should be customer-oriented and value and nurture our customer relationships. If you are also humble, meticulous, good at prioritising and like to have fun at work, you are the right person for us.

Qualifications/Experience
