Overview:

Simmons & Simmons offers world class coverage of all aspects of international capital markets work, from debt capital markets to our leading derivatives, structured products and securitisation practices. We act for financial institutions and corporates through our network of offices in Europe, the Middle East and Asia and we are on the panels of nine of the largest global banks.

In a world of fast-moving regulatory change, we believe that it is critical to provide our clients with a joined-up service combining transactional experience with regulatory expertise. Our capital markets team has a strong international network and works closely with market-leading financial regulatory practices. As a result of these relationships we have supported leading industry initiatives affecting the international capital markets.

We offer a service which has a reputation for being both partner-led, with significant partner involvement from initial structuring to execution.

We are innovative, having worked on some of the most ground-breaking transactions in recent years, as well as developing a number of award-winning online legal resources and document automation tools. We also have a dedicated listings team which keeps in close contact with the principal European competent authorities.

Derivatives & Structured Products

Simmons & Simmons is a market leader in structured finance and derivative products with excellent coverage of both the buy- and the sell-side of the market. We advise many of the most active investment banks as well as asset managers and corporates and we are the derivatives adviser of choice to the European hedge fund community.

We advise on the full range of derivatives and structured products, including structured credit products (such as credit derivatives, CLNs, repackaging’s, CDOs/CLOs and total return swaps); structured equity products (such as equity derivatives and CFDs, equity- and fund-linked notes, certificates and warrants); interest rate, FX and inflation products; commodity linked transactions; ETP platforms; Islamic derivatives (such as murabaha-, wa’ad- and salam-based products and advising on the ISDA/IIFM Tahawwut Master Agreement); prime brokerage and intermediation arrangements; credit risk mitigation (such as credit support, security and other collateralisation arrangements); repos and securities lending.

Our transactional teams work very closely with our regulatory lawyers who have been at the forefront of the debate concerning the changing regulatory landscape. In particular, we have been involved in co-ordinating, drafting and presenting market responses on retail structured products, UCITS, AIFMD and ETFs through the Joint Associations Committee comprising ISDA, ICMA and AFME and we are heavily involved on various ICMA, FMLC and FOA committees.

The role:

We are recruiting a supervising associate to play an integral role in our Derivatives and Structured Finance team in our London office. Ideal candidates will have had good exposure to this practice area and strong experience in derivatives and structured products.

We are looking for talented and technical lawyers who have ambition and aptitude to embrace our first class client base. The role offers a varied workload and the opportunity to work closely with partners focussing on derivatives and structured products.

Person specification:

  • Excellent academics.
  • Applicants will ideally have relevant SF&D experience which will have been gained at another leading City practice.
  • Strong client focus with an ability and willingness to get actively involved in marketing and business development.
  • Commercially driven.
  • Able to work effectively as part of a diverse and inclusive team.
  • Flexibility and a willingness to work additional hours on occasion as required.

We’re a truly international firm, with truly international reach. Every day, our expert teams across Europe, the Middle East and Asia come together to work on our clients toughest commercial challenges. Our lawyers are sector specialists so they’re experts in the areas that matter most to everyone’s future – from healthcare and technology to the financial forces that power our world.
