An exciting new opportunity has arisen for an exceptional Junior Associate (NQ - 2 years' PQE) to join the Banking and Finance team of a leading international firm in Dubai.
The firm is world renowned, with multiple directory commendations, particularly as a Banking & Finance powerhouse. They are frequently engaged by the world's leading companies, with the small, tight knit banking team covering a diverse range of mandates in: corporate/M&A finance; conventional and Islamic-compliant banking and capital markets; project finance; Islamic finance; and real estate finance. They are looking to support their expanding Dubai practice with a high-caliber Associate capable of coordinating the input of lawyers from other jurisdictions (particularly Abu Dhabi) to continue to deliver the seamless client service for which they are also renowned.
The ideal candidate will be an autonomous self-starter, with demonstrably strong advisory and documentation skills, and an eye for the practical and commercially viable. They will have a keen interest in and experience of banking, finance, capital markets, and ideally, projects. They will also hold thorough working knowledge of current market trends, and strong business development, management, and client acquisition and retention skills. Regional experience or connections, and an understanding of Islamic finance would be of significant advantage.
The successful candidate will benefit from extremely competitive remuneration, and the chance to gain diverse hands-on experience with inspiring leaders of the field in a stimulating and rewarding work environment within this world-class firm.
Candidates fulfilling this criteria who have trained and qualified at a Magic Circle or similarly top level practice are encouraged to send their CV in complete confidence to richard.mclerie@jlegal.com or call +971 (0)4 455 8419 for a confidential discussion.
