Join a market-leading Restructuring & Insolvency practice in Amsterdam, recognized as Band 1 in the Dutch market and part of a premier international platform. This role focuses on complex, cross-border advisory and transactional work for lenders, borrowers, sponsors, investors, and companies.

Working closely with colleagues across major financial centers and multiple practice areas, you will advise on the full spectrum of restructuring matters, from initial signs of distress through to implementation, including:

Out-of-court restructurings, amend-and-extend transactions, and rescue or new money financings
Liability management exercises and distressed M&A
WHOA plans and their interaction with foreign restructuring schemes and insolvency proceedings
Security and enforcement issues, and insolvency, security, and property law risk assessment

You will take on meaningful responsibility from day one, build trusted client relationships, and develop your profile in the Dutch restructuring market. The role is advisory and transactional; when matters become contentious, you will collaborate closely with dispute resolution specialists.
