Private Practice

Following a successful period of growth, the banking and finance group at this top UK firm is looking to further develop its asset finance offering through the hire of a talented individual at partner level. The banking and finance group has ambitious plans and this hire is an integral part of that growth strategy, providing the successful candidate with a first class platform from which to launch the next stage of their career.

The banking and finance group has grown significantly over the last five years; indeed during the last three years the group has doubled its turnover, and has therefore been targeted for further investment by the firm’s management. Due to the level of success and the speed at which the group is developing, it is gaining a reputation for excellence on all forms of finance deals. The firm itself has won a number of awards over the last few years for their success in a number of markets. The banking group is receiving regular praise from legal commentators and the firm recognises the strategic importance of maintaining this growth. The firm has recently been recognised for its development in terms of financial performance, firm wide growth, the successful merger and the overall perception that the firm is competing for higher quality and higher value work in all sectors.

The asset finance group has a strong platform with a first class group of clients consisting of airlines, banks, borrowers, export credit agencies, financiers, lessees, lessors, manufacturers, and international organisations. The firm also has an exceptionally strong brand within the rail sector and there are a huge number of clients from whom asset finance work could be forthcoming. The asset finance group has a recognised brand within the market and the new hire can expect a high level of continued investment from the firm, which is determined to mirror the success it has had in developing other areas of finance.

For those who would enjoy the chance to be a key partner within the asset finance group, this role offers the chance to be an essential asset to the group on day one. The culture of the firm and the team is unstuffy, where one can work in a relaxed and open environment whilst also maintaining the quality and breadth of work. The group does not operate a "conveyor belt" system where the work life balance issue is a problem. Instead, our client actively promotes a balance between working on exciting deals as well as having a life outside of work.
