Fieldfisher Condor is looking to establish a team of Financial Services negotiators based out of our Belfast office, to service our business-as-usual contract negotiation engagements with clients. Initially we are looking for a senior negotiator who will be responsible for negotiating and executing various master trading documentation related to financial agreements. The ideal candidate will have a strong background in the full suite of Master Agreements including ISDA, CSA, GMRA, GMSLA and CDEA. Additionally, experience in managing and mentoring junior team members is important too.
Key Responsibilities:
- Agreement Negotiation: Using either counterparty paper or our clients' agreement templates, the senior negotiator will be required to draft, negotiate, obtain internal approvals and finally execute new arrangements with counterparties.
- Stakeholder Collaboration: Build and maintain strong relationships with the legal, business, credit, risk and operations teams at the client, to ensure that all negotiations are agreed and approved by the relevant people.
- Data Management: Ensuring that each negotiation is tracked and updated on our client portal so that the management information is up to date and reconciles against the client's internal systems.
- Training and Mentoring: Using your knowledge and experience, help to train and upskill junior members of the team, and act as a mentor for them as they embark on a negotiation career.
Qualifications:
- Bachelor's degree preferred
- At least 6 years of experience negotiating financial services agreements, specifically ISDA, CSA, GMRA and GMSLA agreements
- Competence in MS Word and MS Outlook
- Excellent communication, negotiation and client management skills
We believe our differences are our strength; varied cultures, approaches and experience can only benefit us.
What do we offer?
- You can be yourself: It takes everyone to make us who we are. We're a culture of diverse perspectives, with each of us making unique contributions that make us better together.
- In the office or WFH?: We think the best balance is more time in the office than at home, so we operate a 60:40 rule.
- Beyond salary: We offer plenty of benefits; private medical insurance, health cash plan, dental insurance, life assurance, critical illness insurance, matched pension contributions up to 7%, holiday trading, plus many more.
