About the role and team
The highly regarded Real Estate Securitisation team is seeking a Senior Paralegal/Paralegal to work with the team to help our national clients, consisting of Housing Associations and other mainly charitable organisations, in mortgaging their property assets as security.  The team is exposed to all types of funding from high street bank lending to debt capital markets and bond issues.

The successful candidate will be committed to providing high quality client care and enjoy playing a significant role within the team.
