We are looking for a highly skilled and motivated US-qualified lawyer to join our top-tier High Yield Team in London.
Why Join Us?
Our high yield team is a key component of our top-tier integrated leveraged finance team in London advising on the full suite of leveraged finance and high yield products for our clients – we recognise the importance to our clients of seamless advice across multiple products and the leveraged finance team in London is comprised of both English law and New York law practitioners, with expertise in European/US cross-border financings, bank/bond structures involving both European and US term loan B and second lien debt, unitranche, senior/mezzanine, private high yield and back-leverage transactions.
We advise sponsors, corporates, investment banks and alternative capital providers across the full range of high-yield transactions, including Rule 144A/Regulation S offerings, SEC-registered offerings, and private high-yield transactions as well as other US capital markets transactions. The team is led by 3 US-qualified partners and provides seamless advice on all aspects of complex transactions with deep experience advising our clients across the life cycle of a high-yield transaction, including complex structuring and intercreditor issues often associated with an initial high-yield offering to subsequent refinancings, liability management and restructuring transactions.
The team also forms part of our US capital markets group in London which in total has 5 partners, 1 counsel and 20 associates and works closely with our top-tier English law capital markets practice in London. We are an integrated team with our leveraged financed and capital markets colleagues based in New York and Silicon Valley and in the principle financial centres in Europe and Asia --- supporting our clients globally and sharing best practice and market developments.
What You’ll Do?
Most of the work will have an international dimension and will include some of the largest and most complex high yield and leveraged finance transactions. While the role will focus on high yield bond offerings and committed financing transactions, it will also include advising on European, US and UK equity offerings as part of our wider US capital markets practice in London. You’ll also work closely with our top tier restructuring and capital solutions practice, and the role will include advising on complex liability management and restructuring transactions. You’ll be responsible for drafting and negotiating transaction documentation, advising on acquisition finance, and coordinating global teams. You will also supervise junior associates and play an active role in business development and knowledge management.
What You Bring?
You should have at least 5 years’ post-qualification experience in high-profile securities transactions, especially high-yield bond offerings, gained at a leading practice. You should have an excellent academic record, proven technical and commercial skills, and the ability to manage a challenging workload. Effective communication and a team-oriented approach are essential.
Inclusion
Freshfields is an equal opportunities employer and all applications received by the firm will be considered by the firm on the basis of their merit alone and we welcome applications from all suitably qualified individuals regardless of background. All offers of employment will be conditional on the candidate having/securing the right to work in the UK and providing the firm with evidence of that right (as required by the Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006) prior to employment commencing.
Freshfields is a Ban the Box employer. We ask applicants to disclose criminal convictions only when a conditional job offer is made. A conviction does not automatically lead to withdrawal of the offer: we make decisions on a case by case basis and take a number of factors into account (e.g. the role you are applying for and the circumstances of the offence). You would have the opportunity to discuss the matter with us before we make a decision.
Please let us know if you require any support, or adjustments to be made, in order to submit your application to Freshfields.
