In-house Counsel, Derivatives

An exciting role has arisen for a Derivatives Lawyer to join the growing London office of a prestigious international bank.

Working closely with the business in a small, dynamic legal team, your focus will be providing derivatives legal support. Expertise, particularly in ISDA, GMRAs, REPOs, and CSAs, is essential but there is scope to expand your remit and potentially become more of a financial markets generalist, as the wider team also handles debt and equity capital markets.

This is a brand-new role so you will be able to make it your own whilst contributing to the wider established legal, compliance, and governance team. The bank is renowned for its excellent work-life balance and supportive culture; employees tend to stay long‑term.

Our client is seeking a self‑starter with around 4 years’ post‑qualified experience, either from an in‑house position or private practice. The role requires someone who is ready to embrace a learning curve and is eager to grow within the organisation. This is a fantastic chance to join an organisation offering a flat structure and a supportive environment whilst providing flexibility and a balanced lifestyle.
