Legal Counsel - Litigation

Ebury Madrid Office - 4 days a week onsite working
The Legal Department at Ebury is core to the functioning of the Ebury Group.

It provides front-line advice to all parts of the Ebury Group on legal, regulatory and governance matters which contribute to Ebury's growth every day.


Key responsibilities include:

  • Advising internal stakeholders, including the senior management, Front Office, Risk and HR functions, on groupwide dispute resolution;
  • Managing a broad range of complaints and preaction disputes, employee and commercial litigation and contentious regulatory matters (including drafting correspondence and claimrelated documentation);
  • Instructing and managing English and overseas counsel where specialist advice is required and ensuring that legal spend on contentious matters is optimised;
  • Providing timely reporting on all contentious matters to senior management; and
  • Monitoring legal developments relevant to the group's activities with a view to minimising the risk of disputes and driving process change where required to reduce groupwide litigation risk.

Key skills requirements include:

  • A proactive mindset and an ability to communicate effectively in practical terms with stakeholders at all levels of the group;
  • At least 13 years of professional experience, either in private practice or inhouse, practising as a qualified lawyer with commercial litigation experience;
  • Experience of advising financial services providers on contentious matters (with a working knowledge of relevant rules, common law principles and key financial services regulations);
  • Experience of employmentrelated disputes would also be helpful (but is not a prerequisite); and
  • An ability in a fast paced environment to prioritise and manage a wide range of competing priorities (with support from other team members and external advisers where necessary).
  • Fluency in English is essential in an international environment
