Legal Counsel – Derivatives/Financial Markets
Montreal
Our client is a sophisticated entity operating in the financial services and
investment sectors. It has extensive in-house legal expertise and employs
several lawyers grouped into specialized teams.
This employer is currently seeking a legal advisor with approximately 3 to 7
years of tangible experience in derivatives law and financial market regulation
to join its regulatory affairs team.
Several specific responsibilities are associated with this role, but
essentially, it involves advising this entity on legal, contractual, and
regulatory issues related to its functions and activities.
This position also involves commercial law, as the chosen candidate will be
required to negotiate, draft, and interpret a wide range of commercial
agreements. He will also be called upon to provide advice on various regulated
areas and markets.
The ideal candidate will be able to navigate gray areas and be comfortable
working in a complex and changing regulatory environment. Experience in
commercial, corporate, securities, or compliance law within a major law firm,
financial institution, or investment company will be considered a significant
