Job description
An opportunity has arisen for a 2-4 PQE Aviation Finance Associate with this Top 40 International law firm. The firm has achieved rapid expansion/ year-on-year growth owed almost entirely to a focused strategy, strong leadership and the quality of its people.
Their global practice spans their offices in Europe, the Middle East, Asia, Australia and North America and delivers consistently high levels of service across borders and locally through a deep understanding of their markets and the sector.
The Firm
Although this firm is one of the leading International and UK firms, they have never lost their culture and have received many Employer, Development and Investor accolades, notably being named in Top Employer for Women awards a record-breaking number of times.
Recognised as a Top 40 law firm in the UK some clients have been with the practice for over 150 years. They range from Start-Ups to the top global organisations, with more than 40% of the FTSE 100 companies counted on their client roster.
With many offices around the world, the firm has seen rapid expansion over the years in terms of the size and geography and is noted as one of the most adept and key powerhouses in the sectors they operate.
This firm attracts key individuals from the top City and International firms, which could be attributed to so many factors. Often, it is the genuine opportunity to progress that attracts such key figures in the industry. Combining this with the firm's notoriety in both Chambers and Legal 500 (and their international reputation) makes them a unique proposition.

The Department
This is one of the leading practices in the international legal market with a presence in all the major asset finance centres. Globally, they house over 100 specialist lawyers n this area across all of their offices.
