Connect to your opportunity

Internet Law and Regulation is new and our team reflects that, drawing together like-minded motivated lawyers with expertise across a broad range of issues (technology, regulatory and compliance, content risks, media, advertising, competition, consumer, technology, IP, privacy, litigation etc) and from in-house, public sector and private practice. If you have a focus in these areas or you are working in a regulated sector (eg FS or telecoms or anti-trust) but would like a change of focus to technology then this may be for you!

The team works for many household-name clients as well as fast-growing companies. We provide advisory and risk and compliance advice, often acting in large cross-jurisdictional cross-expertise Deloitte teams on major projects for our clients.

We are on an ambitious growth plan. In the short term we have two posts to fill (2-6 and 6-10+ PQE). We are looking for lawyers with relevant experience either in private practise or in-house. Most importantly, because this area is new, we are looking for lawyers who want to develop their careers in this space - rather than expecting you to have experience across the breadth of the topics and skills.

We particularly look for traits such as innovative thinking, curiosity, energy and drive, adaptability, team-orientation and a genuine interest in the area, these clients and our work.

The recruitment team will provide further detail as you progress through the recruitment process.

Connect with your colleagues

“At Deloitte I am encouraged to work from home whenever it’s convenient. My hours are flexible – if I want to start earlier or later I can, provided I work my weekly hours overall. There are loads of non-work-related initiatives going on that you can become involved in.”- Becky, Deloitte Legal

“Our ability to seamlessly integrate legal services into broader solutions offered by Deloitte is a differentiator as compared to traditional law firms. Deloitte also has some impressive proprietary technology which we can use to streamline/improve the delivery of legal services. We are ahead of the competition in this regard, including the other Big Four.” - Benjamin, Deloitte Legal
