Job Description:

An outstanding opportunity has arisen for an experienced financial services regulation lawyer to move into a pivotal knowledge role at an elite global law firm. This is a rare chance to combine your technical expertise with innovation, leadership, and strategy, shaping the future of knowledge management in one of the legal industry's most dynamic sectors.

Why Apply?

• Play a strategic role in major client initiatives, industry projects, and thought leadership campaigns.
• Join a highly collaborative, forward-thinking team with flexibility through hybrid working arrangements.
• Contribute to a supportive culture that prioritises wellbeing, diversity, and long-term career growth while earning a highly attractive six-figure salary plus generous benefits.

As a Senior FS Reg Knowledge Lawyer, you will act as a trusted advisor to the firm’s lawyers, providing expert guidance on complex regulatory issues, developing high-quality precedents and materials, and delivering impactful training to colleagues and clients. The role offers a rare blend of technical work, thought leadership, business development support, and the chance to influence firm-wide knowledge strategies.

Key Responsibilities:

• Advise lawyers on legal, structuring, and regulatory issues and support complex research queries.
• Draft, maintain, and enhance precedents, practice notes, training materials, and client publications.
• Design and deliver engaging legal training sessions, webinars, podcasts, and client events.
• Contribute to key business development projects and support client relationship initiatives.
• Lead knowledge management projects, developing systems for capturing and sharing know-how.
• Manage and mentor junior team members, nurturing their professional growth and skills.

This role is ideal for a qualified lawyer with significant experience in financial services regulation, operating at a senior level and recognised for technical excellence. Strong drafting skills, a flair for clear and engaging communication, and a genuine interest in knowledge sharing are essential. The ideal candidate will combine strategic thinking with hands-on project management skills, enjoy collaborating across all levels, and be motivated by shaping best practices and innovation within a leading firm.

This role offers the perfect opportunity to step away from fee-earning into a high-profile knowledge leadership position, or to advance your knowledge lawyer career into a more senior role with greater scope. Combining advisory support, training delivery, precedent development, and strategic business development contributions, this role promises variety, impact, and the chance to truly influence the future of the firm’s offering.
