Restructuring Senior Associate - 6+ years PQE

Location: London

Brief

We are looking to recruit a Restructuring Senior Associate at 6+ years PQE with restructuring and insolvency experience to join our London office. The role will have an emphasis on transactional, restructuring and advisory work, and all types of non-contentious restructuring and insolvency matters. There will also be opportunities to work on contentious restructuring and insolvency matters if the candidate is interested in such matters.

Our London Team

Our London Team has a strong focus on a wide range of restructuring and insolvency matters across sectors such as financial services, real estate, infrastructure, professional practices, retail and education. 

Our market-leading practice focuses on business restructurings, restructuring and insolvency issues, advising boards of directors and all stakeholders in a restructuring and is well supported by its integrated international network.

Our National Team

Nationally, our highly rated Restructuring team, part of our Banking and Finance group, advises financial institutions, turnaround and insolvency practitioners, company directors, shareholders and other stakeholders on strategies for recovery and turnaround. We act for all the major clearing banks as well as a wide variety of other lenders. We also act for a broad range of companies and borrowers in formulating and implementing restructurings through formal and consensual means.

We are regularly involved in more complex, high profile and high value restructurings at an early stage in the financial decline curve, with the aim of providing innovative solutions which improve returns to stakeholders and, in many cases, avoid an insolvency process altogether. We are building an increasing reputation for taking roles on some of the most complex restructurings in the market, often advising the boards of directors or other individual stakeholders. 

Operating across the UK and beyond, the team has 14 partners and a team of 32 lawyers, making it one of the largest teams of any practice.
