  • Supporting clients on corporate governance, ESG and ethical investment matters
  • Advising on development finance and project-related corporate structuring
  • Working collaboratively with multidisciplinary teams on complex transactions
  • Playing an active role in client development, profile-raising and team leadership

Candidate Profile:

  • Qualified lawyer in England & Wales (or equivalent)
  • Strong experience in corporate transactions within the energy or infrastructure sector
  • Demonstrable exposure to renewables, clean energy or energy storage projects
  • Commercial, solutions-focused and confident managing complex stakeholder environments
  • Interest in sustainability, net zero and the evolving energy landscape
  • Experience mentoring or supervising junior lawyers is advantageous

What's on Offer:
