  • Managing external advice on transactions and developing and maintaining precedents of documentation, including term sheets, core product corporate documentation, and funder documentation.
  • Supporting the development of new structures working in partnership with commercial and product teams, as well as providing ad hoc legal support as required in relation to business as usual corporate processes.
Key Responsibilities

The successful candidate will have the following experience and core skills:

  • Indicative PQE 3-5 years, with more and less experienced candidates considered based on relevant experience and skills.
  • Formal legal qualification and admission to practice law, preferably common law qualified.
  • The ability to draft and negotiate in Spanish, as well as English, is a preference given the firm's strong pipeline across multiple geographies.
  • Trade and/or finance background with experience in contractual drafting, particularly sets of contracts that sit together.
  • A high level of attention to detail and first-rate organisational skills.
  • An enjoyment of working with a diverse, multi-disciplinary team to explore new structures, queries, and issues.
  • Ability to work closely with commercial colleagues to extract key information and help turn good ideas into excellent and well-run transactions.
  • Curiosity is a must, along with a flexible can-do approach.
