Engage in business development activities by preparing proposals, attending industry conferences and events, writing industry articles and hosting client training.
Senior Associates are given regular and direct contact with clients, with a culture based on associates being given responsibility at an early stage.
To the extent of interest, opportunities for secondments with clients can be explored. Also possible to explore a posting to offices in the broader firm network through our associate transfer programme.
We do not have a ‘face time’ culture. Remote working and flexible working are possible and can be discussed.
The Team
The M&A team provides advice on private equity, public and private M&A and venture capital transactions. The role is exclusively focused on transactional work. We also work closely with our investment funds colleagues to ensure seamless service to our asset management client base. Clients include private equity funds, publically listed companies, sovereign wealth funds, financial institutions and major national and multinational corporations. Our practice is broad, and much of what we do is cross-border.

This position will be within the Corporate and M&A team. The Senior Associate will primarily work with private equity, M&A and public M&A team members based in the UAE, but there will be opportunity to work across the network.
