Senior Corporate Lawyer - Bermuda

This respected offshore law firm is looking for an experienced corporate lawyer to work closely with some of the island’s leading lawyers as part of a small, collegiate team. Advising on high-value and complex cross border work, you will take on a busy practice that spans mainstream corporate including M&A, private equity and joint ventures, but which also offers exposure to banking and finance and some corporate insurance matters. It is likely to appeal to someone who relishes a varied workload, enjoys a hands-on role with plenty of responsibility, and who thrives in a client facing capacity.

Package

• Salary negotiable depending on experience (expected to be in the range of $150k-$200k p/a with a low tax-rate).
• Comprehensive benefits and bonus.
• Relocation package (flights + temporary accommodation on arrival + expenses allowance).

Process

• Interviews will take place by videoconference
• Start dates typically around 3-6 months later (depending on your notice period).
• Our clients provide comprehensive assistance with visas and relocation.

Bermuda

Bermuda offers you the opportunity to live and work in one of the most sought-after locations on the planet. The island benefits from a mild year-round climate, never too cold in the winter and rarely too hot in the summer. It is famed for its picture-postcard pink sand beaches and crystal-clear ocean, but it also has plenty of history and boasts all the attractions associated with a luxury holiday destination. And if you should need a break from island life, with regular direct flights to London, New York and other parts of the US, it is particularly well connected.
