Antitrust Associate (Cravath Salary) - US Law Firm, London

Our, a leading elite US law firm, seeks a motivated Associate for their market-leading Antitrust & Competition team.

They have an enviable reputation among sponsors and a prestigious client base so the role is merger control leaning but they have an all court, balanced practice unlike some of their tier one peers with more of a 60/40 split.

Again, unlike some of their big law peers they have a more measured approach to target hours and are remarkably flexible.

They feature an established and engaged Partnership team who are committed to investing in the growth of their talent and, whilst they are growing both at firm and practice-level, they enjoy an established platform with a very low attrition and balanced diversity measures. In this welcoming environment to lateral hires you will gain exposure to the highest quality work whilst benefiting from working closely with an interesting and varied client base, as well as a full New York/Cravath salary.

This is a CV-defining brand and will suit a lawyer at the top of their game who wants to take the career to the next stage.

Requirements:

• 2-5PQE Lawyer, probably currently practicing in London at a Magic Circle, Silver Circle, international or peer US firm, with a strong academic background.
• E&W Qualified or experience working in the Brussels market.

Please apply or contact me for a confidential discussion:
