This well-regarded team advises major financial institutions, domestic and international lenders and corporate borrowers on a broad range of complex finance matters, including acquisition finance, leveraged finance, real estate finance and cross-border lending transactions. You will work closely with market-leading partners on sophisticated mandates in a fast-paced, active market.
