Our client is a well-known and successful global investment and development organisation that has an impressive track-record. Now, a 12-month fixed-term contract maternity cover role for a lawyer with solid leveraged finance/private credit/high yield experience has arisen in this business, who provides principal financing and secondary market investing across the capital structure.
The successful candidate will form part of a high-calibre, global team of lawyers who sit directly alongside a dynamic front office. Despite this being a legal position, you will be an integral part of the deal team and not be separate from them.
More specifically you will:
- Advise on complex deal structuring across a portfolio of international clients, taking full responsibility for drafting, and negotiating legal documentation across leveraged finance, real estate and private equity transactions;
- Manage the life cycle of a transaction from embryonic/strategic stages through to execution;
- Support the management of a robust loan, equity, and real estate portfolio.
We are looking for lawyers with a background from the top-tier US and UK law firms. You may have also amassed some relevant in-house experience in a current/prior role. .
You must be a lawyer who can be comfortable sitting directly with a business team and respond to queries with an ‘open door policy’ and be naturally able to disseminate complex legal matters through a commercial lens for a non-legal audience.
Aside from a leveraged finance and private credit background, experience in a credit/distressed debt fund would be relevant, as would accompanying experience in matters like restructuring or real estate.
If the above is of interest, please send your CV ASAP to:
Matt Bloxham: 07900 692209 matt@aysearch.com

Celene Yon: 07944 390723 celene@aysearch.com
