A leading start up investment company based in central London are currently looking for a corporate counsel to join their small London team. They predominantly invest in and acquire businesses across a number of different healthcare platforms.
They are a really forward thinking organisation and it certainly is a great time to be at the forefront of all their activity and play a crucial part in the success of the business as they grow and expand.
The right candidate will have a successful track record in dealing with business acquisitions and investments, corporate re-structures, mergers and acquisitions and other corporate work. The candidate will also need experience in drafting and negotiating a broad range of commercial contracts including shareholders' agreement, investment agreements, finance documents, consultancy agreements and supplier agreements.
This is a great opportunity for someone looking to become a General Counsel as there is a great deal of autonomy and independence required in this role but there is also that security of an internal resource to fall back on if required.
They are looking for a 4-5+PQE Corporate lawyer who trained in a top tier law firm, in house experience is desired but not necessary. The successful candidate will be able to demonstrate their ability to operate autonomously.
Previous exposure to the healthcare and pharmaceutical sectors would be beneficial but not a specific requirement.
