Corporate ECM Associate | 2-4 Years PQE | Global Law Firm | HKG

Become a key player in the premier public markets practice of a world-leading international law firm, renowned for its formidable global network and its dominance in the Asia-Pacific financial landscape. This role places you at the epicentre of the Hong Kong financial market, working alongside industry-leading partners on a high-stakes pipeline of landmark IPOs, secondary offerings, and block trades for an enviable roster of prestigious clients. The ideal candidate will not only have a strong foundation in ECM but will also bring valuable experience in public company M&A, providing a comprehensive skill set that is highly prized for the complex and integrated nature of these major transactions.

WHAT

In this hands-on position, you will take on substantial responsibility, managing critical aspects of deals from inception to completion. This includes drafting listing documents and prospectuses, conducting thorough due diligence, and advising clients on regulatory and exchange rules. We are looking for a Hong Kong-qualified lawyer with two to four years of PQE whose background at a recognised firm includes solid, focused experience in equity capital markets. A complementary skillset in public company mergers and acquisitions is considered a significant advantage, offering a more holistic understanding of the corporate lifecycle and strategic capital events.

WHY

This is a superb opportunity for accelerated career development within a truly global platform that values commercial acumen and strategic thinking. You will receive active mentorship and be part of a collaborative culture dedicated to excellence. If you are a driven and ambitious lawyer with the requisite ECM experience and a desirable M&A background, ready to take your practice to the next level, we strongly encourage you to apply.
