London

As a Barclays Investment Banking Lawyer, you will provide senior legal support as part of the Investment Banking Legal team serving the EMEA region with a particular focus on our M&A and Equity Capital Markets (ECM) businesses. This will entail providing legal and regulatory assistance on a variety of transactional and non-transactional matters. Partnering with the coverage and origination, product, execution and syndicate teams you will help to enable delivery of consistently excellent investment banking services to clients of Barclays.

Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, established in 1690, with a legacy of success, quality, and innovation. We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.

At Barclays, we offer a hybrid working experience that blends the positives of working alongside colleagues at our onsite locations, together with working from home. We have a structured approach where colleagues work at an onsite location on fixed, 'anchor', days of the week, for a minimum of two days a week or more, as set by the business area (or nearest equivalent if working part-time hours). Please discuss the working pattern requirements for the role you are applying for with the hiring manager. Please note that as we continue to embed our hybrid working environment, we remain in a test and learn phase, which means that working arrangements may be subject to change on reasonable notice to ensure we meet the needs of our business.

Reviewing and advising on legal documentation, ranging from early-stage contracts such as engagement letters, to primary transaction documents

Instructing and managing external counsel, building effective relationships

Maintaining know-how and precedents; assisting with the production of standard forms, practice notes and policy/guidance

Inputting on regulatory advice and firm-wide projects, working with different areas of the bank

Commenting on regulatory consultations and answering any regulatory enquiries

Following relevant legal and regulatory developments to keep the bank at the fore-front

Arranging and/or delivering training and updates to the legal team and business

What we're looking for:

Qualified lawyer in UK or other common law jurisdiction (other jurisdictions may be considered too)

Corporate/M&A and/or ECM experience gained in private practice and/or in-house at a financial institution

Excellent social and communication skills, with an ability to share knowledge pro-actively

Previous experience working effectively in a fast-paced, complex and multi-dimensional environment

Skills that will help you in the role:

Some knowledge and competence of investment banking or other financial services experience

Where will you be working?
In the heart of Canary Wharf, our headquarters at Churchill Place boasts onsite amenities such as; a gym, staff restaurant and deli bar, and is easily accessible by tube and bus links. With a population of around 5000 staff the atmosphere is second to none with a real buzz being created around the offices within.
