Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Ashurst Full time

The Opportunity

Australia has seen a surge in sophisticated US and global private credit and distressed debt funds, while Australian corporates have adopted complex leverage and finance funding structures. Ashurst's Restructuring and Special Situations Group has been at the forefront of these developments, acting on most of the market leading debt and corporate restructurings in recent years.

We are seeking a junior to mid-level lawyer with banking or corporate transactions experience to join our market leading team. Prior restructuring experience is not required, but you should have worked on technical and sophisticated corporate/banking transactions and have a desire to build your career in restructuring.

About You

  • Prior transactional experience working on complex matters with a banking or corporate background and a desire to move into restructuring.
  • Take day-to-day responsibility for more straightforward matters and actively progress complex matters with close partner support.
  • Demonstrate strong drafting skills and be an effective communicator with both your team and clients.
  • Understand your clients' needs and work with the business development team to develop business opportunities.

What makes Ashurst a great place to work?

We offer competitive remuneration, flexible working, complimentary gym memberships, corporate health plans, and a global professional development offering for all employees. We are committed to delivering positive impacts to our communities through our Social Impact programme and aim to recruit, retain, and promote the best people from the widest possible talent pools.
