Financial Services Regulatory Lawyers | Associate to Counsel | Bermuda – Cayman Islands – BVI
An elite level legal career with cutting edge work for sophisticated clients.
The potential to earn a lucrative tax-free salary.
A chance to enjoy life in paradise during your time off.
For the right person, a move to Bermuda, the BVI, or the Cayman Islands can offer all this, and more.
We are working on openings from 3 years’ PQE upwards, at Associate to Senior Counsel level, for Financial Services Regulatory Lawyers in the Caribbean and Bermuda.
In each case you would be joining a large multi-office offshore firm with a strong reputation, advising major financial institutions, trust companies, investment funds, regulated entities and corporate service providers, on the full array of regulatory matters. This might include AML/CFT compliance, sanctions, licensing, regulatory investigations and enforcement actions, economic substance, beneficial ownership, data protection and wider governance issues.
These positions offer an opportunity to take on a key role, making an active contribution to business development, mentoring junior colleagues, and helping to shape the growth of the practice. It might be ideal for an established regulatory specialist who has tired of life in the city and who craves a different working environment, but whose ambition and career aspirations remain undimmed.
