We are seeking exceptional asset finance lawyers to join the expanding Asset Finance group based in our highly regarded Financial Markets Department (Finance Team of the Year - Legal Week 2006).

The Asset Finance group acts for a range of leading financial institutions, including banks, lease companies, end users/airlines and government entities, across the spectrum of asset finance transactions. The group has ambitious expansion plans and the practice, which encompasses complex domestic and cross border matters, frequently works with colleagues across our international network.

We are looking for candidates with 2+ years' PQE in asset finance to focus on developing this growing area of practice. However, good ambitious candidates at any level from NQ level upwards will be considered. The Asset Finance group is noted for its strong finance practice and candidates seeking a collegiate and supportive working environment will thrive. Excellent future prospects are also on offer.

This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast growing team and make a mark on its development. A genuine willingness and ability to be involved actively in marketing and client development is essential, as are strong academics.
