Job Description

City: City of London, Greater London

State: London; England

Company: Arbuthnot Yon

Our client is an innovative and successful asset manager who is currently searching for a junior lawyer (1+ PQE) to take on a broad role within an established, international legal team.

This particular business has an impressive portfolio of products, and as such, they are open to submissions from candidates with a variety of backgrounds within financial services.

You may have built your post-qualification practice in investment management, perhaps with a generalist background, or you may have more targeted funds (UCITS) experience. Alternatively, you may have derivatives/structured products knowledge and wish to broaden your skill set, or even hark from a financial services role that has a regulatory focus, but you wish to now deal with a more transactional matters.

Whatever your background, the successful candidate will:

  • Take a lead on product development, fund launches and maintenance of the current and future portfolio;
  • Review, draft and negotiate a range of commercial agreements.
  • Function as a point of contact on regulatory/compliance matters and advise on impacts of future European regulations.

A spirit of entrepreneurialism and innovation have driven this firm’s growth and embracing these values is paramount in this role. You must also be adept at multi-tasking, problem-solving, work and, over time, work autonomously when required.

Our client remunerates competitively on both base and bonus and the legal team enjoy a flexible hybrid working policy.

We look forward to hearing from you.
