Job Title

We’re hiring a Junior Associate (1 to 2 years PQE) to join our Media, Entertainment and Technology Practice at Bay Counsel LLP.Our Media, Entertainment and Technology practice cuts across a broad range of work within and adjacent to this ecosystem. We represent the interests of individual talent such as celebrities, artists, writers, directors, athletes and influencers. We also represent corporate clients across this practice area, including agencies on both the talent side and the brand side, film and production houses, music labels, hard and soft technology companies, event and experience management firms, restaurants, bars and other businesses operating in this broad ecosystem. We also work closely with trade unions, copyright societies and other institutional stakeholders. Across this body of work, we are closely involved in structuring, negotiating and formalising the commercial arrangements that underpin these relationships.Prior experience in commercial contracting is essential, as is meaningful exposure to media, entertainment or technology related work of this nature. We’re looking for someone who finds contracting cerebral and takes real pleasure in crafting contracts, thinks carefully about language, structure, leverage, risk allocation and commercial outcomes, and takes pride in refining templates to reflect client specific requirements, commercial sensibilities, bargaining power and the realities of each transaction rather than merely leaning on precedent.This is a drafting intensive role. A significant part of the work will involve preparing first drafts, turning around revisions quickly, and working through a high volume of commercial agreements across media, entertainment and technology mandates. We’re looking for someone who is comfortable working at pace without compromising on clarity or quality, is self driven and responsive, takes ownership seriously, and understands that good contracting is not only about identifying risk, but about navigating it intelligently in a way that serves the client’s objectives.You will work closely with Associate Counsel, Anjali Baskar and Managing Counsel, Sanjay Vasudevan. The role is flexible in terms of location. You may work out of our Bombay office at Worli, or remotely. Compensation will be competitive. We also believe in recognising value and contribution in a manner that reflects geometric growth rather than linear progression, including through dynamic incentives linked to responsibility, ownership and positive client outcomes.If this interests you, please write to us at with your CV and a short note in your own words, with the subject line: Application for Junior Associate | [Your Name] | [Your PQE]
