Capital Markets Recruitment – Mid-Level Headhunter (Equity & Macro Research)

London | Full-Time | Office-based majority of the week

F&L Search, A specialist executive search firm is looking to hire a capital markets recruiter to support their growth across macro and equity research. This is an opportunity to step into a warm, senior-led practice with deep, long-term client relationships in both London and New York, working on high-value, strategic mandates for leading hedge funds, research providers, and asset managers.

The focus will be on building and delivering searches across:

– Buy-side macro and equity research hiring (strategists, economists, researchers)

– Research-led roles at independent research providers (macro, thematic, multi-asset)

– Strategic hires within sell-side research (selectively)

You’ll work closely with a senior recruiter who has extensive relationships across this space, with an increasing volume of work coming from retained or exclusive mandates. The expectation is that you’ll be comfortable working end-to-end on searches (with guidance where needed), building out candidate networks, helping with pitch prep and mapping, and taking on client comms as you progress.

Our client is a leading bank (across retail, corporate and institutional banking) in Europe with an international reach. They are now looking for a junior (NQ+) lawyer to join their Capital Markets Team, a market-leading area of the bank that continues to increase its market share and is backed by a top-tier London based corporate brokerage team.

The successful candidate will occupy a visible, pro-active role within an established team of lawyers and will:

• Manage ECM transactions from inception to settlement (e.g. ABBs, IPOs, Rights Issues; Primary and Secondary Block trades; Convertible & Exchangeable Bonds);
• Attend meetings with new clients and be involved in the due diligence/prospectus writing process, if required;
• Be willing to lend support to DCM transactions such as high yield and emerging market bond issues.

We are looking for candidates with ECM experience from a top-tier City firm or are already working on a relevant scope of transactions in an in-house financial services organization. Either way, you must have the maturity to work autonomously when needed and can manage the legal aspects of ‘big-ticket’ transactions from the outset.

This is a great opportunity for a top-tier ECM lawyer to join an established, diverse team of lawyers who support a high-calibre, market-leading and growing business.

Our client will remunerate the successful candidate competitively on base and by way of a discretionary annual bonus. This organization offers a generous and flexible hybrid working policy to work from home on a weekly basis.
