Listing Rules Regulatory Lawyer, Top Tier UK Law Firm, 5+ PQE, Hong Kong

Are you an in-house lawyer looking to move back into a highly regarded private practice firm or a private practice lawyer looking to move to another firm with better hours? If so, this role would be perfect for you.

Our client is a top tier UK law firm who has been going through an exciting period of international growth recently. The team - who primarily focus on M&A transactions - are currently working on a number of key deals with certain parties who are listed companies. Because of this, they are looking for strong corporate finance candidates who are tired of IPO transactions and who want to focus on market-leading M&A deals.

The ideal candidate will need to have an in-depth understanding of the regulatory guidelines covering the Hong Kong Listing Rules with the knowledge of other stock exchanges being an added advantage. You must have had at least 5 years of post-qualified experience gained from a top tier law firm or will have at least completed your traineeship with a highly-ranked law firm.  This will give you the chance to work closely with the partners who are highly regarded globally and are quickly establishing the firm across Asia with high-profile FDI transactions between its international clients and their respective PRC-based clients.

You will need to be Hong Kong qualified and possess the fluency in English and either Cantonese or Mandarin.

As the team continues to grow, this will give you the platform to develop yourself within the firm quickly and you will see faster prospects to partnership.
