Mid-Level REF | US Firm

Although always interested in top-quality Associates, this team now has a particular need for a 4-5PQE Associate to join their real estate finance practice.

This role sists at the heart of the firm’s real estate sector offering, which is recognized firmwide and globally as a core strength; particularly for their dual-side expertise in acting for both lenders and borrowers. The team is led by ranked & recommended Partners (L500 & Chamber), for their work across investment and development financings, portfolio transactions, and senior/mezzanine debt structures; with particular strength in student accommodation, BTR, logistics and office sectors for high-profile clients.

Key Benefits Beyond Top-Tier Work and Market Recognition:

• Flat structure & Fast Progression: You’ll be given early responsibility and direct client contact, with greater visibility and seniority recognised from a lower PQE level than many peer firms.
• Cross-Practice Collaboration: The team works fluidly across the wider banking, structured finance, and private credit groups, giving you exposure to a broad range of financing products and deal types, while remaining anchored in real estate finance.
• High-Quality Junior Support: Known for its strong training culture, you’ll be supported by specialist junior associates familiar with real estate finance documentation and consistent deal flow.

Although UK Qualified Associates are strongly preferred with 5-6 years of post-qualified experience, the team is also open to reviewing common-law Qualified Associates with the appropriate PQE discount. Experience in a top-ranked REF practice is required and preferably acting for both lenders and borrowers.
