About the role

The Legal team turns complexity into clarity by partnering with teams across Revolut to provide sharp, practical advice that helps the business move fast while staying protected. From structuring credit programmes to navigating new markets, the Legal team ensures growth is secure, compliant, and built for the long term.

We're looking for a forward-thinking Patent Attorney to handle a diverse range of complex intellectual property matters on a global scale, from product approvals to high-stakes litigation.

As a key member of a lean, high-impact team of two (supported by a Paralegal), you'll have a direct hand in how our IP strategy evolves.

• Advising on cutting-edge technological elements and products that are new to the market, requiring creative legal solutions
• Acting as a partner to the business by finding compliant "pathways to yes" rather than acting as a legal blocker
