Corporate Generalist Lawyer - Global Asset Manager

Superb opportunity for a corporate generalist lawyer to join a global asset manager.

My client, a global asset manager, is looking to hire a mid-senior level corporate generalist lawyer. This role will be an individual contributor role that will not have direct reports but it is a senior level role within the organisation.

The role holder will work in conjunction with the lead UK/EU regulatory lawyer and ideal candidates will have general corporate expertise with exposure to asset management and regulatory issues.

The successful candidate will be responsible for:

• providing general legal support to the organisation's central functions including Compliance, Human Resources and Finance;

• drafting, reviewing and negotiating a wide range of complex legal documents and contracts;

• advising on non-US legal projects that span across the organisation's businesses and contributing to the analysis of significant legal issues on UK-related or international projects;

• coordinating and providing legal counsel on matters related to EU licensing and permissions;

• providing legal counsel and support on EU-related governance matters and serving as records legal advisor for international locations;

• providing legal support to the Lead UK Regulatory lawyer; and

• providing support on cross-business unit legal initiatives and partnering and coordinating with team members and stakeholders to achieve project priorities.

I'm looking to speak with lawyers who have a minimum of 7 years' relevant experience, gained at either a top law firm or leading financial services organisation. The successful candidate will have a familiarity with asset management products/services and their regulations.
