Our Client is a highly regarded international law practice which is looking for an assured In-House Counsel to join their high-quality Leeds office. They would be interested in considering those candidates with Financial Crime / Risk and Compliance experience who would like to take a step up and join a market leader, providing worldwide legal advice on highly complex Risk & Compliance matters.

Our Client is widely respected for its straight-forward, progressive approach and has an excellent reputation for undertaking high-quality work.

Whilst our client is being flexible in its approach, it would ideally like to appoint a financial crime / compliance solicitor with at least 2 years' PQE. Whilst experience of acting within an in-house context would be beneficial, it is not a deal-breaker for our client.However, it is necessary for the right candidate to be familiar with certain areas of law (such as the Bribery Act, Money Laundering Regulations / POCA and others) which will be crucial to undertaking this role.

This is a unique opportunity within the Leeds legal markets at this current time.

Should you wish to discuss this confidentially, please don’t hesitate to contact Chris Clarke.
