Our client is a market-leading disputes practice, renowned for its heavyweight business crime and investigations work. The team is instructed on matters where the stakes are exceptionally high, and is trusted by an international client base facing complex, sensitive and often high-profile challenges. The work spans major cross-border investigations, serious allegations of fraud and financial crime, and matters involving domestic and international enforcement and regulatory authorities. Consistent recognition from the leading directories and recent industry awards reflects the depth and quality of the practice, but it is the sophistication of the work and the calibre of the team that truly sets it apart.
They are now looking to hire an additional Associate in London to work closely with recognised leaders in business crime on matters including:
- Anti-money laundering, bribery and corruption investigations.
- Criminal fraud, financial regulation and economic sanctions.
- Corporate and internal investigations with cross-border elements.
- Criminal antitrust and cartel investigations.
- Extradition, mutual legal assistance and other international business crime issues.
- Related commercial and trust disputes arising from complex investigations.
This role offers early responsibility, direct client exposure and the opportunity to develop a broad, sophisticated practice at the top end of the market. The role will suit an Associate with between 2 and 7 years' post-qualification experience who is:
- Qualified as a Solicitor in England & Wales (a strict requirement).
- Able to demonstrate substantive business crime experience, such as AML, bribery and corruption, corporate investigations, sanctions, criminal antitrust or serious criminal fraud.
- Experienced in complex, often international matters rather than general high street criminal work.
- Comfortable working in high-pressure, sensitive environments.
- Technically strong, intellectually curious and motivated by high-quality work within a collegiate, values-led culture.
