Collaboration is key, as you will work alongside cross-functional teams (internally and externally), including financial advisors, industry experts, and senior executives, and with a variety of clients, ensuring seamless execution of restructuring plans and mandates and assisting with insolvency matters and disputes. You will also stay up to date with evolving legal and regulatory landscapes and trends, ensuring that clients receive the most informed, premium and strategic advice.
The ideal candidate will hold an ARITA Advanced Certificate.
