Job description

H-Share Securities Compliance Counsel — Recruitment

Location: Hong Kong (with occasional work in Shenzhen)

Compensation: HKD 1,500,000+ per annum (negotiable based on experience)

PQE: 3–5 years' post-qualification experience

About the Role

A growing number of A-share listed companies are pursuing H-share listings in Hong Kong. We are looking to hire an experienced H-share securities compliance lawyer to join our team in serving these A+H listed issuers on their information disclosure and securities compliance matters.

This is a client-facing, technical role. You will work directly on disclosure and regulatory compliance for A+H dual-listed issuers — the full spectrum of Hong Kong and Mainland disclosure obligations, not a narrow document-processing function.

Key Responsibilities

• Advise A+H listed issuers on ongoing information disclosure and securities compliance obligations
• Handle periodic reporting, price-sensitive information disclosure, inside information and connected transaction matters
• Manage notifiable transactions, circulars and other Hong Kong listing rule–driven filings
• Liaise with issuers, sponsors, banks, auditors and other professional parties on live transactions and compliance projects
• Support transaction-focused compliance work where clients are pursuing further Hong Kong capital markets activity

Requirements

• 3–5 years' PQE in securities compliance, capital markets or regulatory compliance work
• Hands-on experience with Hong Kong listed issuers or capital markets transactions; exposure to dual-listed (A+H) issuers is a strong advantage
• Solid working knowledge of the Hong Kong Listing Rules and the SFC's disclosure regime; familiarity with the Mainland disclosure framework is highly valued
• Fluent written and spoken English and Chinese (Mandarin essential; Cantonese an advantage)
• Able to work independently, communicate directly with clients, and coordinate across professional parties
• Detail-oriented, commercially sensible, and comfortable owning matters end to end

Working Arrangements

• Location: Hong Kong, with work in Shenzhen where necessary
• Hours: Normal working hours. Intense periods are concentrated around the March annual report disclosure season; outside of that, overtime is limited
• Travel: Some travel required to participate in project discussions and negotiations with clients
• No business-development pressure: There is no client-acquisition target. Our pipeline of projects is strong and well established, so the focus is entirely on doing the work well

What We Offer

• A steady stream of A+H listing and compliance projects — genuinely strong deal flow
• Direct exposure to issuers and professional parties, with real responsibility on matters
• Competitive compensation at HKD 1.5 million+ per annum
• A focused compliance practice without the pressure of carrying a book of business

Shortlisted candidates will be contacted for a conversation.
