  • Liaise with internal and external stakeholders including opposing counsel, financial advisors, and corporate teams.

  • Deliver high-quality legal and strategic advice under time-sensitive conditions.

  • Stay current with global M&A trends, legal developments, and regulatory updates relevant to transactional work.

Requirements

  • Law degree from a recognized institution; admission to practice in any common law jurisdiction is required.

  • Minimum of 5 years of experience in mergers and acquisitions, preferably with international or cross-border exposure.

  • Strong commercial acumen and the ability to understand and align with client business goals.
