A partner-level appointment of this kind turns on what actually moves with you, more than on any single number.

Leading international law firm seeks a senior disputes partner to join its Dubai litigation team. The role focuses on international arbitration and complex financial-institutions disputes, strengthening an established practice in the region.

The successful candidate will lead matters, develop client relationships across the GCC, and work with a cross-border team on high-value contentious mandates. This is an opportunity to grow a regional disputes platform within a well-resourced international practice.

Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
Established partner-level experience in international arbitration and financial-institutions disputes
Track record of originating and leading cross-border contentious matters
Ability to manage and mentor a small team and collaborate with regional/international colleagues

Where the match is not obvious from the description, it is usually still worth talking — these mandates flex around the right practice.
