London, United Kingdom Litigation Funder Full time

Strangford Search has been exclusively retained by a financial services company in their search for a dedicated legal counsel for their team in the City of London.

The company manages a wide range of investments and assets, focussed on the legal sector.

The successful candidate will join a dynamic, collegiate team focussing on high value and complex legal projects in a new and innovative area of legal and financial services. The role will suit a bright, commercially minded lawyer who can adapt to new challenges and a very broad variety of complex work often involving Global, Magic and Silver Circle law firms as well as a range of top tier professionals.

Because of the nature of the work - and unlike many inhouse legal positions - your work as a lawyer will be integral in helping the business pursue its commercial aims. You will be providing legal support and advice to the business in the following areas:

Negotiating, drafting and reviewing a variety of key commercial contracts including financing agreements
Regulatory, insurance and operational matters
A wider range of general commercial matters

Be admitted in England & Wales or another common law jurisdiction with requisite experience as outlined above
Experience working on corporate/banking and commercial matters
Ideally some litigation/arbitration experience
Any knowledge of insurance matters would be a bonus

Be keen to work across a wide-range and variety of legal matters and projects and able to adapt quickly
Be interested in the development of the organisation as a whole including in helping us develop our systems and processes
Have outstanding drafting skills covering legal and commercial documents, correspondence and advice
Be comfortable instructing external legal and other experts, including senior barristers, accountants and forensic experts
Have outstanding organisational and project management skills

If you are a dedicated and adaptable legal professional with a desire to take on a much more commercial role in a lean team, we invite you to apply.
