Position Summary
We are currently looking for junior associates with New York Bar Exam to join the Private Equity team in our Stockholm office.
As well as possessing excellent academic credentials, you should be commercially minded, with an enthusiasm for the cut-and-thrust of international deal-making. A confident team player, you should enjoy working as part of a tightly knit group within our diverse team and demonstrate a willingness to do whatever it takes to help your colleagues get the deal done. Whilst we as a team operate in a fast-paced deal environment, it is also one where a candidate with the requisite drive and determination will flourish. This collaborative mindset should be balanced with an independent, entrepreneurial spirit that drives you to anticipate clients' needs and to proactively develop solutions to their problems – both legal and business focused.
Working in a client-facing practice, excellent communication and interpersonal skills will also be significant assets – enabling you to form strong professional relationships, and to explain sophisticated legal concepts in clear, precise language that can be easily understood by non-lawyers. Highly organized and deadlines-driven, you should relish the challenge of delivering outstanding work within the short timeframes our clients expect.
Ready for the challenges of joining a global law firm, you should be excited by our work, a market leading salary and benefits package, passionate about service delivery, and driven by a desire to maximize your talent.
