Financial Services transactions - London - 3-5 PQE

apartmentJameson Legal. placeLondon calendar_month 

Our client is a major UK headquartered global law firm with an established and longstanding reputation in all the markets in which it operates.

Their Financial Services Transactions team, is market-leading, and advises a stellar list of financial institutions, including banks, pension schemes, insurers and reinsurers, on complex capital-driven transactions. The team is particularly noted for its work on structured reinsurance deals - often involving high-value, cross-border elements and an increasingly diverse range of asset classes.

The work here sits at the intersection of structured finance and financial regulation, but candidates don't need to have an insurance or regulatory background. What's key is a solid transactional grounding (likely from a general finance or structured finance team, but possibly a focus on corporate transactions would be of interest too), a sharp commercial instinct, and a genuine appetite to develop in a fast-growing and evolving practice area.

Matters handled by this team typically involve:

  • Structured products and reinsurance transactions
  • Custody account and collateral arrangements
  • Securitisations and repackagings
  • Taking security over illiquid and complex assets
  • Cross-border close-out and netting issues
  • Capital regulatory considerations impacting transactions

This is a fantastic role for ambitious associates looking for complex, cutting-edge work and the opportunity to work closely with market-leading partners in a collaborative and supportive environment.

Candidates are likely to have between 3-5 years' PQE gained at a recognised finance practice, though those just outside this range are still encouraged to get in touch.
