Job Details
A top-tier financial institution is looking for a senior litigation/disputes lawyer to join its legal team on an initial 6 month basis, although it is likely to be extended further. Sitting within the litigation department, you will be expected to handle a wide range of contentious regulatory investigations across various European jurisdictions, whilst managing relationships with external counsel and regulators (e.g. FCA, SFO).
The ideal candidate will have excellent city-law firm training, preferably from a top-tier US, magic circle, or silver circle law firm, and have extensive litigation and regulatory experience. Contentious experience within financial services is preferred, however, broader commercial litigation experience will also be considered. You must also be at least 6PQE and UK qualified.
This is an urgent hire and you must be available to start within the next month. If interested, please apply above or email Anthony Graham at agraham@mlaglobal.com.
