Legal and Regulatory


Home / Telecoms / Overview / Legal and Regulatory

Our legal recruitment practice provides specialist legal talent for operators requiring skills in-house, regulatory authorities searching for technical and regulatory experts and private practice law firms seeking telecoms-specific lawyers and partners.

Telecoms operators require legal regulatory professionals who understand the complexity of working with government regulators and can support them though transitions such as the launch of new services including LTE and NBN as well as spectrum allocations and license applications. 

Regulatory authorities may look for thought leadership and experience from other markets for defined periods and private practice law firms often look for lawyers with previous domain experience in the telecoms industry to assist on projects for operator or vendor clients.

As a telecoms specialist recruiter RP International has supported numerous operators, regulators and private practice law firms during licence awards processes, regulatory changes and ongoing projects. We provide a full range of recruitment solutions:

Executive Search: We are able to source senior legal talent including TMT partners in private practices, heads for regulatory authorities, general counsels and heads of regulatory for operators.

Interim: On a freelance basis we recruit senior legal and regulatory talent in support of start-ups, bid cycles and launches of new products and services.

Contingent: We recruit TMT-specialist lawyers for private practices as well as both lawyers and regulatory experts for operators, holding companies, vendors and regulators.

Contract: On a flexible basis we provide technical, commercial and economist regulatory experts and legal professionals.
