London, Greater London, United Kingdom Taylor Root Full time

Although the structured finance and derivatives market had been quiet the past year, this US firm is starting to witness a rapid uptick in activity and workload. The team has made recent changes and are vastly expanding, looking to add another junior headcount in the growing team (1PQE+).

This is an opportunity to join a practice with a strong European and US footprint, that is also specializing in the ESG and digital assets sectors, including fintech and cryptocurrencies related derivatives transactions. You will be working with a consistently ranked partner in the derivatives, structured finance and structured products practice (Chambers, Legal 50, IFLR1000), gaining exposure to cleared and uncleared OTC and exchange-traded derivatives, repos, securities lending, margin loans and structured products, amongst others.

This is a lean team, allowing for high-level access to transactions from the early stages of your career, opportunities for progression as well as competitive compensation as a US firm.

You need to be a UK trained and qualified Solicitor, of at least 1 years' worth of experience in derivatives (preference for OTC and CLOs exposure) at a reputed law firm in London.
