Contract Lawyer - Equity Solutions | Leading Investment Bank | Trading Floor
We're looking for an experienced Contract Lawyer to join the Legal team supporting the Equity Solutions business of a leading investment bank.
Based on the trading floor and working closely with front-office, credit and other stakeholders, you'll advise on sophisticated transactions for clients looking to finance, hedge, build or monetise strategic positions in listed equities.
The role offers exposure to a broad range of transactions, including margin lending, equity derivatives (options, collars, forwards and total return swaps), stake-building transactions, fund financing and prime finance.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
You'll be involved throughout the transaction lifecycle, with responsibilities including:
- Advising on the structuring and execution of complex equity financing and derivatives transactions
- Providing transaction management and legal risk advice to the business
- Working closely with the front office, Credit and other control functions through the credit committee and approval process
- Reviewing and coordinating legal opinions and other transaction conditions
- Advising on security, enforcement and potential enforcement routes where required
