Legal Counsel – Corporate Banking
London | Hybrid Working
A leading UK financial institution is looking to appoint a Legal Counsel to join its Corporate Banking & Structured Lending legal team.
Supporting a broad range of complex financing transactions, you'll work alongside senior stakeholders to provide commercially focused legal advice on high-value lending matters. This is an excellent opportunity for a Banking & Finance lawyer looking to build an in-house career without sacrificing the quality or complexity of the work.
The Role
You'll advise on a broad range of Corporate Banking and Structured Lending matters, including:
- Complex lending and finance transactions.
- Reviewing and negotiating LMA documentation.
- Advising senior stakeholders on legal and regulatory issues.
- Working closely with external legal advisers on major transactions.
- Managing legal risk while supporting commercial objectives.
About You
You'll be an England & Wales qualified solicitor with Banking & Finance experience gained either in private practice or in-house.
You'll also have:
- Experience advising on lending transactions.
- Strong knowledge of LMA documentation.
- Excellent commercial awareness.
- The ability to build strong stakeholder relationships.
- A practical, solutions-focused approach.
Experience of structured finance, infrastructure or project finance would be advantageous but isn't essential.
Why Apply?
- Join a leading financial institution.
- Work on complex, high-value transactions.
- Collaborate with an experienced and supportive legal team.
- Enjoy genuine commercial involvement.
- Hybrid working and excellent long-term career prospects.
