Corporate Lawyer - 3 month assignment

Our client, a specialist corporate law firm, is looking for the assistance of a junior-mid level corporate Lawyer on a particular project which is anticipated to run for circa 3 months in duration. The project is expected to require 25-60 hours per week, depending on the stage of the transaction, and will pay a competitive hourly rate. Lawyers can work remotely from within the UK, and should be available immediately or at short notice.

Ideally, the successful Lawyer will have a strong corporate law background with venture capital and/or private equity exposure, gained from notable City or International law firms.

Throughout the project, the Lawyer can expect to be involved in drafting memorandum of associations to dovetail with a VC investment agreement, amongst other matters.

Whilst this initial project is anticipated to run for circa 3 months in duration, there is potential to form a longer-term relationship with the firm and work on future projects.

Successful Lawyers are likely to demonstrate:

• Qualification in England & Wales, or another commonwealth jurisdiction (such as Australia or New Zealand, for example).
• Ideally, between 2-4 years' experience (although applicants outside this bracket will be considered).
• A solid corporate law background, ideally with VC and/or PE exposure, gained from notable City or International law firms.
• A keen eye for detail.
• The ability to start a new role immediately or at very short notice.
