Finance Lawyer in London Area

Job description

We are working with one of the largest financial services organisations across Asia, which has a strong and growing presence throughout Europe. This corporate and investment bank has harnessed a consistent and stable flow of business and continues to perform well, so it is a great time to join.

The London EMEA legal team is now looking for a finance lawyer to join their Leveraged Finance legal team, initially for a 12-month long contract.

What will the role involve:

• Reviewing, drafting and negotiating LMA and non-standard finance documentation for syndicated and bilateral deals across EMEA;
• Reviewing, drafting and negotiating ancillary documentation and contracts that accompany the deals and assisting the business teams directly with any queries that arise.
• Advising on regulatory matters affecting loans and derivatives (when necessary) e.g. EMIR and related regulations;
• Advising the business on policy and procedures, making amendments when necessary, and delivering training to the business on any updates.

What are we looking for?

• Qualified lawyer 2 years+ PQE from a reputable law firm or financial institution;
• Should be very familiar with regulatory issues in the lending arena;
• The ability to manage multiple workstreams and work with multiple stakeholders;
• Someone who is naturally collaborative, with the ability to form solid relationships with internal/external stakeholders, but who can also work autonomously when required.

This is a fairly rare opportunity for a leveraged finance/lending lawyer to work on a broad scope of transactions, supporting a top-tier business team who have a healthy and growing deal flow.

The successful candidate will be remunerated a competitive daily rate of pay and join a well-regarded team who enjoy a flexible and generous hybrid working policy and a healthy work-life balance.
