Our recent expansion across the Middle East region has positioned us to become the leading full service global business law firm in the region.

Our targets are ambitious - as are our clients - and we recognise that we can only achieve these through investment in our people and strength and depth of expertise in the local market.

Although our significant regional expansion since late 2007 means our growth will be more in line with the current market conditions, we are still interested in meeting talented individuals who can add value and make a difference to our business.

We can offer you an excellent career opportunity, whether you are a qualified lawyer who wants to make a lateral move, or whether you would like to take up one of our business support functions.

So if you are open, down to earth, pragmatic and friendly, with a long-term commitment to the Middle East, please send us your CV.

What makes us a workplace of choice?

When asking our people why they joined us, they say it is not only our excellent reputation in the local market, but the wider global support we are able to offer our clients. People who join us discover a dynamic and diverse environment - we currently have 35 nationalities across seven Middle East offices all working together for a common purpose.

Our environmental and CSR initiatives are unrivalled by our competitors. Our local commitment is further cemented by our support for local law students in a variety of work experience and training initiatives.

"People are crucial to our business because they provide us with our differentiation in the marketplace," says Head of HR for the Middle East, Mila Tutor. "What makes us different is that we have a 'one team' approach," says Mila. "Everybody is a professional and everyone contributes."

We currently have over 150 lawyers in the Middle East - including more than 30 partners - drawing on experience both locally and from around the globe. Our presence in all six GCC nations (the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia) is supported by our global network of DLA Piper offices and affiliate firms. It enables us to deliver rapid, first-class legal services to businesses and government organisations regionally, those expanding internationally and multinational organisations with interests in the region.
