About the role
Overview:
The role involves negotiating and executing complex finance transactions, encompassing leveraged finance, acquisition finance, asset-based lending, unitranche, first lien/second lien, mezzanine, and/or subordinated debt financings, as well as distressed debt and restructurings.
Candidates should have experience representing a variety of parties, including lenders, investors, borrowers, and issuers, across these transaction types.
The firm's Finance practice group advises leading investment and commercial banks, various non-bank lenders (including private debt funds, private credit and direct lenders, BDCs, mezzanine funds, and hedge funds), and sponsored and corporate borrowers and issuers.
Requirements include superior academic credentials and strong deal experience gained at a large law firm.
Before you apply
Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.
Your profile is current
It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.
Two examples you can talk through
Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.
A number in mind
What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.
Your notice period
Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.
Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
