Join a national projects team advising public- and private-sector clients across energy, transport and broader infrastructure. The role sits on a busy projects desk working on project development, procurement, project finance, PPP/DPC and regulatory matters across the UK, Ireland and selected international mandates.

The team operates a hybrid working model with flexibility for exceptional remote arrangements for experienced candidates.

  • Minimum 4 years' PQE in projects, project finance, PPP/PPP or infrastructure transactions.
  • Strong drafting and commercial contract skills; ability to work independently on complex documentation.
  • Experience advising on energy matters (renewables/offshore wind) and/or transport/infrastructure projects; rail experience preferred.
  • Excellent project management, client-facing and business development instincts.
  • Outstanding academic record and strong judgment, resilience and teamwork skills.
