The Government Legal Department has published vacancies for as many as 17 London-based trade lawyers who would receive a starting annual salary of 48,400 pounds ($60,747).
Requirements include ?a solid understanding of trade, public, EU and international law? while experience of international negotiations is ?desirable,? according to the announcement.
While the going rate for British government lawyers, that?s as much as 60 percent less than what similar private-sector positions offer.
?You really can?t get anyone with any experience in trade law for that price,? said Mark Husband, a London-based head hunter at Cogence Search.
The U.K. has a personnel handicap as a result of its 44 years of EU membership, during which British trade policy has been run by the Brussels-based commission.
