What “challenging and high-stakes matters” actually means
The posting asks for someone with hands-on experience in litigation and arbitration, eager to work on challenging, high-stakes matters. That phrasing is doing real work. It is not describing a research or drafting-support role. It is describing a seat where you argue applications, draft pleadings that go before a tribunal or a court, and carry a matter rather than assist on one.
For arbitration specifically, that means drafting notices of arbitration, statements of claim and defence, framing interim relief applications under Section 9 and Section 17 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, and building the record that a challenge to an award will later be tested against. None of this is theory. It is drafted under deadline, on a live matter, with a client watching the outcome.
Firms hiring at the 1+ and 3+ years mark are not looking for someone who can define arbitrability. They are looking for someone who has already drafted the notice, argued the interim application, or briefed the senior on strategy, and can do it again from day one.

FAQs
Who is this course for?
Law students, fresh graduates and advocates with up to a few years of experience who understand arbitration law but have not yet drafted pleadings, argued interim applications, or run a matter through the full arbitration lifecycle independently.
Does this course cover litigation as well as arbitration?
Plan B and Plan C add commercial litigation strategy, interim reliefs and enforcement on top of the core arbitration curriculum, which is useful for roles like this one that combine both practice areas in a single department.
What if I miss a live class?
Every live session is recorded, so you can catch up in your own time without losing access to the drafting practice or the rest of the module.
