The role:

You’ll support a wide range of clients — from UK clearing banks to investment funds and listed companies — on bilateral and syndicated finance deals.

What’s on offer:

1. High-quality, complex work in a friendly, collaborative Birmingham team
2. A strong pipeline of ABL, leveraged and real estate finance matters
3. The chance to help grow and shape a key part of the practice

What you’ll bring:

1. 2–4 years' PQE in banking & finance from a well-regarded commercial firm
2. Excellent technical skills and sound commercial judgement
3. A team-first mindset and eagerness to get involved in a growing practice

Why this team?

You’ll be joining a dynamic, well-established team with a national reach and a genuine partner-led culture. Expect hands-on mentoring, market-leading training, and the chance to develop your career in a firm that values ambition and collaboration in equal measure.
