The business has grown to over 65 people in under 5 years and is now looking to move to its next stage of growth with international expansion in USA and Asia. Business lines include hedge fund, investment management, structured products, stock loan, sub custodian and institutional brokerage. The niches within the business have all proved to be extremely successful and the business has established a very strong reputation within financial services.
They are looking to recruit a newly qualified (0-1 year PQE) lawyer from a top 10 law firm with some experience within financial services to join the team. The role will involve working across the business on all areas such as fund law, corporate, real estate, litigation, etc.
They will look for the successful candidate to continue their training and undertake all FSA and IMC exams and will actively encourage any other exams that would be beneficial.

They are looking to offer a very competitive base salary with a very significant bonus expectation – leading to a total compensation significantly above what you would expect in private practice.
