Careers in Singapore
Legal practice areas
Fully integrated into our international network, our Singapore office focuses on the following core areas as follows:
The Singapore team is comprised of local and international lawyers specialising in South East Asia related work across our firm’s key global practice and industry sectors. They are particularly experienced in our core sectors of Financial Markets and TMT. We aim to be a first choice law firm for clients in the world’s fastest growing industries and therefore take time to understand the distinct demands that each client faces in order to provide a meaningful and valued service. We do this by offering deep commercial knowledge of each of our key sectors which underpin our international practice groups. For more information, see our sector focus.
In addition to acquiring first hand experience of South East Asian work, Simmons & Simmons’ Singapore practice groups also offers you the opportunity to work closely with colleagues from all our other international offices and practices, in particular, our Beijing, Hong Kong, Shanghai and Tokyo offices.
Opportunities for qualified lawyers to join Simmons & Simmons and develop their career in Singapore may arise in both a fee-earning and a knowledge-based capacity.
Business services
As the newest of our Asia offices, the business services team is currently very small. Working closely with legal practice teams, there is an open and collaborative feel. The team works closely with colleagues both from Singapore and across Asia as well as with the wider international network. Central services operate from the London office and provide additional support as needed, and colleagues work closely with their London and international counterparts on various international projects as these arise.
Rewards and benefits
We offer a generous rewards package in line with our position as a leading international law firm.
Community
Within the Singapore office there are many opportunities to mix with colleagues through regular social activities and sporting events.
