Our client is a major global law firm with an established and longstanding reputation in the UK, where they are headquartered.

The firm contains a specialist fintech innovation and alternative finance team, which specialises in a variety of differently modelled debt funding deals for fintech clients which have outgrown venture debt. The team’s work includes a mix of private securitisations, similar deals outside the Securitisation Regulations, and forward flow deals.

The team is now looking for an additional senior member. The right candidate will be:

• A seasoned (probably at least 7 years’ PQE) banking and finance lawyer.
• Experienced in structuring and Securitisation Regulations.
• Interested in working closely with clients who are purposeful and changing their industry.
• Excited by the prospect of being part of a team that is friendly and curious.

Prior experience of the fintech industry of the specific products the team works with is not required, but you will require:

• A strong academic background, solid training (preferably from a City or international firm), and black letter law skills.
• The ability and experience to develop productive working relationships with colleagues and clients at all levels.
• A commitment to professional development and becoming a subject matter expert, as well as the aptitude to work on technically complicated transactions.

Foreign-qualified candidates with suitable PQE and relevant experience gained in the UK will certainly be of interest.
