About the Role
Our client is an international commercial bank who specialises in trade finance solutions in emerging markets, but whose coverage extends to treasury/investment services as well as real estate finance.
Due to strong performance, a newly created role for a finance lawyer has arisen in this organisation. Whilst lending matters are a key component of the work, the legal team covers a very broad remit, encompassing a wide scope of commercial contracts, treasury work, financial services regulation, and product development.
Requirements
We are looking for candidates who:
- Have a background in general banking/LMA suite of documentation (but whose practice could alternatively have a trade, receivables, asset, real estate, or project finance focus).
- Bring additional experience in commercial contracts drafting and negotiation (e.g. technology, outsourcing, or service-level agreements).
- Have a sense of the regulatory environment that banking entities occupy and can advise on relevant/upcoming regulatory change in this arena.
- Ideally have treasury experience, though this is by no means a pre-requisite.
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.
The overriding and most attractive feature of this role is its scope and would suit lawyers who do not wish to be pigeon-holed or overly specialise in specific areas of financial service law. As a result, the successful candidates will be inquisitive and a natural problem-solver: someone who is adept in tackling unfamiliar matters with a pragmatic and adventurous attitude.
