THE ROLES

The firm's City of London office is now looking to hire a further England & Wales qualified solicitor, with 3-5pqe.

The successful candidate will work closely with a team which is well integrated with the firm’s Silicon Valley offices and is a leading cross-border venture capital / growth financing practice. 

ABOUT YOU

The candidate will have worked in a top Corporate practice, in a UK or US firm in the City, and will have assisted in advising emerging companies and investors in venture capital transactions, venture debt transactions, and cross-border M&A.
