White & Case is an elite global law firm serving leading companies, financial institutions and governments worldwide. Our long history as an international firm means we are perfectly placed to help our clients resolve their most complex legal challenges wherever they may be.

With lawyers operating from more than 40 locations, working in virtually every country of the world, we have invested heavily in building a high-quality full-service practice competing at the top of the market. We are distinguished by our on-the-ground presence in the world's key financial markets and our strengths in handling complex cross-border work.

It's not just about our global network of offices; it's the global interconnectedness of the Firm that our people, and our clients, value most. We work well together across geographic and practice boundaries. It's one of the reasons we attract and retain cross-border work. And why we attract a diverse group of people.

Our lawyers are globally minded, enterprising, collaborative and committed to excellence. Diversity is a core value of our Firm and it has been recognized with numerous awards and top rankings around the world. Our people represent 90 nationalities and speak 80 languages.

We are looking for mid-level associates with substantive experience managing and negotiating debt finance transactions to join our Americas Banking practice. You should have strong academic credentials and a genuine interest in domestic and cross-border financing transactions. Candidates with borrower side experience and/or fund finance experience (but not exclusively) should apply. You should also be ambitious and passionate about work, ready for the challenges of working in a global law firm, service-minded with strong interpersonal skills and able to work in a team environment.

As an associate, you will have the opportunity to work with all the finance partners and with teams based in other offices and thereby gain diverse experience in multi-jurisdictional transactions across a wide range of industries.

We offer high-quality, internationally-oriented work on the most challenging bank finance and capital markets transactions, a competitive salary package and an opportunity to work as part of a truly global organization.

With established teams in every major financial market, we are trusted by many of the world's largest financial institutions, alternative capital providers, private equity funds and corporates to handle their largest and most complex multijurisdictional transactions. Widely recognized as leaders in our field, we offer both international reach and a depth of local resources-advising on the full spectrum of financing matters, and structuring innovative, often ground-breaking deals.

From the moment you join us, you will be working alongside leading practitioners, supporting multi-disciplinary teams composed of colleagues from within our group and across the firm's M&A, Capital Markets and Project Finance groups. An exciting, fast-paced practice, we expect our associates to deliver outstanding work to tight deadlines, and to display the cool head and positive mindset to flourish in a pressurized environment.

As an associate, you will be expected to take a lead on many of the day-to-day tasks involved in ensuring that deals are running smoothly and will have a high degree of contact with clients, opposing counsel and other parties. Your core responsibilities will also include vital contractual work, such as reviewing initial drafts of commitment letters and loan documents, preparing succinct issues lists and preparing revised drafts reflecting client comments.
