Funds Lawyer

Investment Funds lawyer - Cayman Islands - Large offshore law firm - top-class international funds work - lucrative tax-free salary

This Global offshore law firm has an opening for an experienced investment funds lawyer in its growing Cayman Islands office. Joining a strong team in one of the world's premier investment funds locations, you will enjoy exposure to some of the best work in the market, spanning fund formation, regulation, acquisitions/disposals and restructuring/winding up of funds.

This role is likely to suit someone with at least three years' relevant post-qualification experience as an investment funds lawyer with a leading City/International law firm, or, a corporate lawyer with strong credentials and a genuine desire to build a career in the funds sector. You will need to be technically strong and have a flair for client management as you can expect to be dealing regularly with onshore funds lawyers and directly with institutions.

The firm has an ambitious growth strategy making this an excellent move for an ambitious funds lawyer who wants to maintain (or perhaps improve) their career progression whilst enjoying a lifestyle outside of the office which is unique to the Cayman Islands.
