Derivatives Senior Legal Counsel

  • London
  • £125,000 + excellent benefits

My client is a FTSE 100 financial services firm operating in the pensions and investment management space. They are in the process of growing out their asset management legal team and are looking for a senior derivatives lawyer to join them. This is an incredibly exciting opportunity to join a team in a well established firm but in a real period of growth and change. It’s like being able to combine the best parts of joining a large company and a start up.

You will work closely with the front office and CIO and they are an incredible bunch. Really friendly and so supportive and good to work with. They enjoy a very strong relationship with the legal team. The role would also interact closely other internal departments like risk and many external asset managers.

The ideal candidate will be c.10 years PQE+ and ideally coming straight out of private practice. While those from a banking background will be considered this role goes well beyond ISDA negotiation and deals with a variety of very complex structures. You will need to manage multiple stakeholders across various areas and therefore private practice would be preferred.

This is a client I have worked with for years and made multiple placements across this team. They are renowned as a great place to work and can offer an exceptional benefits package.
