Deputy General Counsel

My client is a boutique financial services firm connected to a much larger global entity and looking for a senior lawyer to be their number 2 for their in house legal team.

The role will report to the Head of Legal and work closely with the wider business.

The work is varied and the role will support numerous business lines including fund finance, Repo/securities lending &, FX/money markets.

They are happy to consider people who have more experience across one or two of the areas.

Whist they are open minded on background this is likely to appeal to someone who has been working for a larger bank or similar entity who wants to join a smaller team where they can do really great work, be close to the business and enjoy great work life balance.

They aim for 3 days a week in the office but aren’t too strict in its’ implementation.

If you have experience of general fund finance, FX derivatives or GMSLA/GMRA documentation and would like to work in small, nimble team with brilliant people then this would be a great opportunity for you.

Please contact Tom Boulderstone on tgb@barclaysimpson.com for further details or submit your CV for consideration.
