The team acts for major UK financial institutions (including clearing and challenger banks), specialist lenders and a wide range of borrower clients both in the UK and internationally.

There is particularly strong activity in:

• Private equity and acquisition finance

This role offers genuine breadth of work and the chance to be closely involved in high-quality, complex transactions.
