DERIVATIVES AND STRUCTURES PRODUCTS SOLICITOR, 2 PQE +
City of London
From £79,000 to £95k+
Solicitor with very good experience in derivatives and some broader structured finance sought by leading global law firm’s first rate team.
For a lawyer currently with a practice with a relatively narrow remit, this is a great opportunity to open your experience out into wider areas as part of a sizable team undertaking varied work.
Junior and mid-level solicitors/associates tend to work closely with a range of partners covering a complete spectrum of work, including derivatives, securitisation and structured products, structured credit, bank regulatory capital and DCM products.
Naturally there are opportunities for more senior associates to specialise more fully on particular areas as their career progresses, and as this team is thriving and growing there will be plentiful scope for career development for ambitious lawyers joining the team at this time.
The firm’s impressive client list on the buy and sell-side in the derivatives market include various investment and pension funds and a large range of prominent banks and financial institutions.
The team’s remit typically involves:
* advising on highly structured derivatives and products for other treasury and trading activities;
* dealing with ISDA and other master agreements, credit support documents, netting agreements, guarantees and other related documentation;
* advising in particular in relation to interest rate derivatives, credit derivatives, currency/FX derivatives, equity derivatives, commodity derivatives and insurance derivatives;
* advising on exchange traded products, prime brokerage services and on repurchase agreements, stock lending agreements, cash pooling arrangements and structured deposits;
* assisting clients with the legal and practical effects of derivative regulatory reform; and
* handling all types of asset-backed transactions, including RMBS, CMBS, ABCP, CDOs and whole-business securitisations, on a private and public basis.
Applicants for this role must have trained with a leading UK or US private practice in London, and be capable of fulfilling a lead, client facing role, negotiating transactions (with appropriate supervision) and fostering relationships. It is expected that candidate may not have covered all of the areas typically handled by this team – it is key, however, that the new joiner has very good derivatives experience in particular.
