The Team
The wider team is made up of several key practice areas, including derivatives, capital markets, securitisation/structured finance, and corporate trustee services. The derivatives team at Norton Rose Fulbright provides high-quality legal advice on a broad range of complex and cross-border derivatives transactions. The team acts for clients including financial institutions, funds and corporates, advising on products such as structured derivative transactions, structured repo transactions, Sharia-compliant derivatives and repo transactions, repackagings, structured notes, market-standard documentation, complex collateral structures, repos and securities lending, credit risk mitigation, insurance and alternative risk-transfer products and industry standard initiatives.
The Role
We are currently looking to expand our team with the hire of a mid-senior level Derivatives Associate. This is an excellent opportunity for a collaborative, highly motivated lawyer to work in a fast-paced, intellectually stimulating environment within a leading global law firm. You will work alongside senior lawyers on a wide range of derivatives matters (conventional and Shariah-compliant), advising on structured derivatives and repo transactions, the negotiation and documentation of various derivative products, structured finance transactions, and regulatory matters. You will engage in drafting, reviewing, and negotiating complex legal agreements, including trade confirmations, ISDA master agreements, credit support documentation, and derivative trading agreements.
