Lateral Partner, Finance & Banking — Düsseldorf

A partner-level appointment in this practice is decided by what the practice can carry across, not on a headline number.

Leading international team seeks a lateral partner to strengthen its finance and banking practice. The role is open on a location‑agnostic basis with responsibility for originating and leading complex financing mandates across Germany and broader European markets.

The successful candidate will join an established group advising lenders and borrowers on a range of credit and banking matters. This is a business‑building role with senior‑level client engagement, team leadership, and cross‑border coordination.

• Portable book of business of $2M+ (USD)
• Proven track record in finance and banking transactions and client origination
• Experience leading deals and managing teams on cross‑border mandates

If the brief does not read like an exact match, it is usually still worth talking — these mandates flex around the right practice.
