HEAD OF LEGAL CONTRACTS TEAM My client is a global media business that is a leading source of analysis on international business and world affairs. It is valued by its customers for its world-class insights and rigorous analysis. They believe their people are the core of their organisation and they strive to provide them with resources and opportunities to thrive. A unique opportunity has arisen to head up their contracts management team to further align legal efficiencies and process with the revenue generating teams across the business. Reporting to the Senior Vice President of the legal team, you will be a key member of the senior legal team. You will lead a team of lawyers and contract managers in supporting the sales and procurement teams on all contractual matters and managing material risks. This role will also have a strong focus on managing and implementing efficient legal operations processes. The role would suit either a qualified lawyer (8 years PQE+) with a commercial/IP background, or a highly experienced senior contracts manager, who has experience of managing a team and previous experience of working closely with sales and procurement teams. Either way you will need to be comfortable advising on contracts as you will at times manage more complex negotiations with key B2B clients (10% of role). Your key contacts are senior sales directors and international teams, so it is important you are comfortable advising and having issues escalated to you. Experience in commercial contracts, licensing and IP are all useful contributors to this role.

The world's largest asset class, debt, operates with the worst data. Technology has revolutionized equity markets with electronic trading, quant algos and instantaneous news. However, in debt capital markets, the picture is completely different. It still behaves like it's in the 1980s; trillions of dollars of trades are placed over the phone, news is slow, and corporate credit information is imperfect and scattered. Our mission is to change this. 9fin's proprietary technology delivers fast and comprehensive financial, credit, legal & ESG analysis. Our clients are able to make faster, more informed decisions, win more business and most importantly, save time. Our fast growing list of clients include 9 of the top 10 Investment Banks, leading Asset Managers, Hedge Funds and Law Firms. The opportunity 9fin is looking for a senior leveraged finance / high yield capital markets lawyer to help develop its offering of leveraged loan and high yield bond covenant research and analytics. The role will report into our London office with flexibility to work from home / remotely as needed. This role offers a unique opportunity for an experienced leveraged finance lawyer to use their expertise within a rapidly growing start-up environment, with much greater work-life balance than can be found in a typical law firm environment. What you'll work on Every day is different, but here's an example of the kind of things you'll work on: Reviewing leveraged finance and high yield documentation to produce commercially focused and insightful analysis on primary transactions.

The world's largest asset class, debt, operates with the worst data. Technology has revolutionized equity markets with electronic trading, quant algos and instantaneous news. However, in debt capital markets, the picture is completely different. It still behaves like it's in the 1980s; trillions of dollars of trades are placed over the phone, news is slow, and corporate credit information is imperfect and scattered. Our mission is to change this. 9fin's proprietary technology delivers fast and comprehensive financial, credit, legal & ESG analysis. Our clients are able to make faster, more informed decisions, win more business and most importantly, save time. Our fast growing list of clients include 9 of the top 10 Investment Banks, leading Asset Managers, Hedge Funds and Law Firms.
