A leading international law firm is seeking a mid-level associate to join its Securitization/ABL/Structured Finance group within its Financial Markets practice in New York.

The Financial Markets practice advises on a broad range of complex cross-border financial transactions, representing global financial institutions, issuers, borrowers, funds, and asset managers. Securitization/ABL/Structured Finance is a core focus area.

Associates in this role will work on sophisticated structured finance and securitization transactions across various asset classes, including warehouse financings, receivables programs, asset-backed lending facilities, collateralized loan obligations (CLOs), and other structured credit products. The work involves representing issuers and investors, as well as trustees, underwriters, and other market participants, and draws on the broader resources of the Financial Markets practice, including capital markets, derivatives, and regulatory capabilities.

  • 3–6 years of experience at a major law firm working on structured finance or securitization transactions
  • Experience drafting and negotiating indentures, pooling and servicing agreements, receivables purchase agreements, warehouse lending facilities, or similar structured finance documentation
  • Familiarity with one or more securitized asset classes (e.g., consumer and commercial loans, trade receivables, mortgage loans, auto loans/leases, or esoteric assets)
  • Understanding of credit enhancement structures, cash flow waterfalls, and priority of payments mechanics
  • Excellent drafting and analytical skills, a superior academic background, and strong attention to detail
  • A desire for significant client responsibility, hands-on deal management, and collaborative teamwork
