Job Details
Are you a solicitor in the Edinburgh area, keen to secure a role within one of the country's leading banking & finance teams and with at least one year of PQE within this area?
If so then please do read on as QED Legal's top tier client has a requirement at either solicitor or potentially senior solicitor/junior associate level.
You will be between one and four years post qualified as a solicitor and ideally have experience within a leading commercial practice, either in Scotland or England & Wales.
The successful candidate will take on a caseload including, but not not limited to bilateral loans, restructuring, syndicated loans, securitisations and leveraged financing.
This is a truly exceptional opportunity for an ambitious solicitor to secure a role with one of the UK's, and indeed the world's, leading legal firms. You will enjoy the support of some of the country's most respected Partners and associates as you work towards a more senior position within a firm with a stellar track record of career progression.
Perhaps you feel the team you are placed in with your current firm is quite associate-heavy and your chances of progression are therefore somewhat limited, or perhaps you feel you want more exposure to clients than you are currently seeing.
For additional information on this unique to the market opportunity, please contact Neil Campbell at QED Legal via the details provided.
I look forward to hearing from you.

QED
An acronym of the latin phrase quod erat demonstrandum which translates as "thus it is demonstrated" or "that which was to be demonstrated". It is most often used as an annotation at the end of a complex mathematical, scientific or philosophical argument to show that the author had proven what he had set out to prove. In recent times it has also been translated as "Quite Easily Done".
