New Opportunity: Interim Commercial & Corporate Counsel – Asset Management | 12-Month Contract

I am working with a leading asset management business that’s looking for an experienced commercial/corporate lawyer to join their group legal function on a 12-month contract (with potential to extend).

This is a broad, high-quality role that will give you exposure to a wide range of legal matters including:

  • Drafting, reviewing, and negotiating a wide range of commercial contracts, including partnership agreements, supplier agreements. vendor contracts, and customer terms and conditions
  • Supporting on corporate advisory matters, including company secretarial and governance issues
  • Advising on ad hoc projects within a well-regarded, collaborative legal team

What they’re looking for:

  • UK or common law qualified lawyer
  • 4+ years’ PQE with solid experience in commercial and/or corporate law
  • Background in financial services or asset management is ideal—but not essential
  • Comfortable working in a fast-paced, regulated environment
  • Strong communication skills and a commercial mindset

Why this role?

  • A chance to work with a prestigious brand in the asset management space
  • Join a supportive and collegiate legal team with a reputation for excellence
  • Hybrid working and a genuinely flexible culture
  • Real potential for contract extension or longer-term opportunities

If you’re an experienced lawyer looking for a new challenge in a dynamic and well-respected legal team, please apply now.
