Our client is an international asset management house with a substantial London office and a well-regarded legal team which can boast high staff retention rates. They are currently looking to hire a junior-mid level derivatives lawyer to join the team. Working closely with the Senior Derivatives Counsel your remit will involve providing legal support across all business areas in relation to all aspects of the sell-side relationships and documentation with a particular focus on ISDA and GMRA master agreements, REPOs and Clearing Agreements. Being part a close knit team you must also be prepared to support on a variety of other areas as and when needed including regulatory matters and general asset management work.
With at least 2 years pqe the ideal candidate will be a team player with strong communication skills keen to build relationships across the business from an early stage. You will have a commercial approach and the desire to juggle a varied workload. With a good understanding of ISDA and related documentation gained either in-house or in a law firm, this will suit a lawyer who is eager to build on this experience and expand on your responsibilities within a very supportive team.
This is a great opportunity to gain buy-side experience.
