Global Investment Manager based in Mayfair seeks a UK-qualified lawyer with relevant post-qualification experience, ideally with three to five years post qualification experience to focus on private credit and structured debt transactions.
The successful lawyer will have experience with structuring, negotiating and executing private credit transactions, including drafting and negotiating transaction documents and financing documentation. Candidates are likely to be working at a leading UK law firm or in a relevant in-house environment, such as an asset manager, credit fund or financial institution.
The role will work closely with the Investment and Structuring teams on term sheets and transaction documents, supporting or leading the execution of transactions for fund investments. We will be particularly interested to hear from deal lawyers currently working in private credit/direct lending, leveraged finance or banking and finance, with experience negotiating and executing debt transactions.
The successful lawyer will also negotiate structures and deal documents with financing counterparties and work closely with external legal counsel on transactions.
The organisation has a dynamic and entrepreneurial culture, with a tight-knit and non-hierarchical team structure. The role would suit a proactive, commercially minded lawyer who is comfortable taking ownership, working directly with senior stakeholders and managing transactions in a fast-paced environment. Excellent remuneration on offer and hybrid working too.
