The team cover work surrounding anti-money laundering, bribery and corruption, commercial and trust litigation, corporate investigations, criminal antitrust and cross-border issues to name a few.

The successful candidate will be supporting on a large-scale case within the team, involving large volumes of documentation, so the individual must be highly organised, conscientious and confident in coping with challenging deadlines.
