Banking & Finance Lawyer
At a glance
We are working with a high-performing global banking and finance team in London that is continuing to grow off the back of an exceptionally strong workflow. While the team has already made a number of successful junior hires, deal flow remains consistently high and there is clear scope to bring in another 2–4 PQE associate, with flexibility to look at candidates from the Class of 2020 to Class of 2023. This is a team that has grown organically and thoughtfully, and the emphasis is firmly on long-term development rather than short-term headcount.
The team is sizeable, with around 20 associates, and is led by a small group of highly respected partners who work extremely closely with one another and with the associate group. Although there is a natural spread of experience, the structure is intentionally non-hierarchical, and the culture is genuinely close-knit. Many of the lawyers have trained together, lateralled together, and progressed together within the team, which creates a strong sense of loyalty and shared purpose.
A particularly striking feature of this group is retention. A large cohort joined from another leading international firm a few years ago, and the vast majority remain at the firm today, having progressed through the ranks. Almost every partner and senior associate is a tangible example of what long-term progression in the team can look like, which is a compelling message for anyone thinking about their next move.
