The Role
To carry out a broad range of finance work, including corporate lending and real estate finance, as part of an ambitious, motivated team. We act for a wide range of lenders - including banks, insurers and debt funds and borrowers – including some of the largest and most successful corporates in Scotland and beyond.
Our team members are based in London, as well as Edinburgh and Glasgow, and you will be working with team members across those three offices. Many of the transactions we work on are cross border in nature and so you will also have the opportunity to work with our extensive global network of offices.
We are focused on supporting and developing members of our team, providing them with the opportunity to stretch themselves whilst ensuring they have readily accessible tools in the form of precedents and know-how resources. In addition, you will be encouraged and empowered to get involved in marketing and business development initiatives. To support you in this role, you will have the benefit of our award-winning learning and development programmes.
