THE ROLE
We’re looking for an experienced qualified Lawyer to join Avantia on a freelance/ consultancy basis to spearhead the negotiation of investment-related NDAs, Engagement Letters, joinder agreements and non-reliance letters. You’ll manage every phase of the contract process - from initial review and negotiation, guided by client playbooks, all the way through to document execution.
Working closely with fellow global Avantia lawyers and paralegals, you'll dive into fast-paced, high-volume negotiations on pre-M&A contracts (mainly ELs and investment related NDAs), collaborating directly with counterparties while ensuring rapid turnaround times.
This role is fully remote and allows you to practice law flexibly. Due to turnaround times agreed with our clients, we ask for a minimum commitment of 15 hours per week, spread across Monday to Friday. However please note that as this is a freelance arrangement, we are unable to guarantee regular work.
