A prestigious law firm in New Zealand is seeking experienced Banking & Finance lawyers to join its Auckland office. This role offers the chance to work on complex transactions while enjoying a supportive work environment, flexibility around life commitments, and attractive relocation assistance. Ideal candidates have 7+ years PQE with a focus on international markets.
Our client, a premier New Zealand law firm with a global reputation, is actively seeking experienced Banking & Finance lawyers to join its high-performing Auckland office.
This is a rare opportunity to relocate to New Zealand and continue working on complex, cross-border transactions while enjoying a more grounded, flexible way of life. The team advises leading domestic and international banks, private equity sponsors, corporates, and financial institutions across a wide range of sophisticated matters including leveraged finance, structured lending, project finance, securitisation, debt capital markets, and restructuring.
Who are we looking for?
We’re keen to speak with senior Banking & Finance lawyers (7+ PQE) currently based in the UK, Australia, or elsewhere, who have a genuine attachment to New Zealand — whether returning Kiwis or individuals with personal ties or meaningful exposure to the country. The firm is focused on long-term fit, having found that those without a connection to NZ have often struggled to settle.
