A Tier 1 US law firm in Sydney is continuing to expand its Banking & Finance / Structured Finance practice and is looking to add a Senior Associate as part of its 2026 growth plans.
This is a standout opportunity for a senior lawyer to join a lean, high-performing team, working directly with partners on complex, high-value transactions, well ahead of any formal hiring process.
The role
- Lead-level exposure to acquisition and corporate financings
- First-to-market structured finance transactions
- Bespoke, non-routine matters
- Broad exposure across securitisation, receivables, loans, private credit and fund finance
- Direct client contact and meaningful responsibility from day one
Why senior associates move here
- Remuneration weighted heavily towards guaranteed base
- Sophisticated, often US-driven transactions
- Clear runway for progression as the practice scales
- A hands‐on environment for senior associates who want autonomy, visibility, and influence — not layers
Conversations at this stage are confidential and exploratory, with partners keen to meet high‐calibre Senior Associates over the coming weeks.
