The Opportunity

This is a well-rounded banking and finance role within a practice that advises across the full spectrum of financing matters, including corporate and property finance, acquisition and leveraged finance, structured and project finance, capital raisings, restructures and recapitalisations.

The team works with a broad mix of clients, including major domestic and international financiers, private capital, funds, developers, corporates and substantial private groups.
