We’re working with a leading global investment manager on a Legal Counsel hire within its Wealth Management division. This is a senior, business-facing role supporting UK and international operations within a highly regulated environment.

This will include drafting and advising on client terms and product documentation, negotiating commercial agreements, and supporting on regulatory issues (including FCA/PRA) and cross-border considerations. The role also offers exposure to strategic projects and corporate activity.
This position would suit a commercially minded lawyer with strong experience in retail investment management or private banking, gained in private practice and/or in-house. You should be comfortable operating independently, advising senior stakeholders, and navigating complex regulatory frameworks.
