A leading global law firm is seeking a non-client-facing resource attorney to support its highly ranked Capital Markets practice group. The role is focused on strengthening the group's know-how, business development and efficiency rather than on billable client matters.

The position sits at the center of a busy public and private capital-raising practice, supporting work for issuers and investment banks across IPOs, follow-on offerings and other capital markets transactions, alongside an active SPAC and de-SPAC practice serving technology and life sciences companies.

Responsibilities include tracking legal and regulatory developments, developing and maintaining internal practice resources and knowledge archives, drafting and updating forms and templates, preparing client alerts and external-facing materials, and coordinating speaking engagements and webinars. The attorney will also work with marketing on branding and RFP responses, with professional development on training and skills development, and with information services and practice innovation teams to evaluate and adopt technologies that improve efficiency.

  • Licensed attorney with a minimum of 5 years' experience representing issuers and investment banks in capital markets transactions
  • Strong understanding of corporate governance, SEC reporting requirements and related matters
  • Familiarity with the technology and life sciences industries preferred
  • Excellent written and verbal communication and drafting skills; confident presenter
  • Self-starter with strong organizational, time-management and interpersonal skills and close attention to detail
