The Knowledge Lawyer will focus on capital markets (debt and/or equity) and EU listed company regulation, working with practitioners across the global practice (and principally within the EU). Freshfields is a market leader for capital markets and corporate work in Europe, ranked Band 1 for equity capital markets and corporate/M&A and Band 2 for debt capital markets in Chambers Europe Examples of areas within the role's remit include the Prospectus Regulation, the Market Abuse Regulation, Shareholders' Rights, Corporate Sustainability Reporting and Due Diligence, and Transparency Directives, EU Green Bond Standard, etc.

The Knowledge Lawyer will deliver EU capital markets and listed company knowhow to lawyers in relevant teams across our Continental European practice (and, where relevant, updating lawyers in other regions) to maximise efficiency and minimise risk in line with business priorities. They will monitor and provide expert insights into EU regulatory developments that are relevant to the European capital markets and to companies with a debt and/or equity listing in the EU, understanding what these developments mean for our clients and practice (including in the context of M&A) and translating that into client and internal facing initiatives.

The Knowledge Lawyer will bring deep expertise of this area and a willingness and ability to continue to develop in this space, with a view to:

- ** enabling the firm to provide market-leading client service**: by capturing and sharing insights and knowhow from client matters, supporting on legal/market current awareness with a commercially-minded and practical approach to help lawyers understand the impacts for clients and their work, developing Knowledge products and tools (including briefing notes that can be shared across offices, or drafting external blogs that also serve as internal briefings) and helping drive Knowledge innovation workstreams;
- ** helping grow the business of the firm**:helping raise the profile of the practice and strengthen client relationships by identifying opportunities for, and developing, client content (blogs, alerts, thought leadership, speaking notes), and contributing to reputation-enhancing publications and client conversations and education; and
- ** developing the legal skills of the lawyers in the practice**:through internal training and by acting as a sounding board for legal queries, in each case upskilling our lawyers in this continually developing area of the law.

Collaboration is key to the success of our Knowledge function,, and the Knowledge Lawyer will also collaborate closely with other Knowledge Lawyers within the Global Transactions practice who focus on debt and equity capital markets and issues for listed company clients - and will liaise as appropriate with colleagues focused on M&A, finance, tax and employment law on issues impacting the transactional practice for listed companies arising from EU law. The Knowledge Lawyer will also work closely with lawyers in local EU offices, eg to ensure client alerts are adjusted for local practices, which will help build up an understanding of the impact of the EU law across the relevant jurisdictions.

The Knowledge Lawyer will be welcomed into the wider Knowledge community, made up of Knowledge Lawyers and other Knowledge & Information Services roles, led by the firm's Co-Chief Knowledge Officers who focus on creating the framework for career satisfaction, high performance and excellence by fostering a supportive, inclusive, innovative, collaborative and purpose-driven culture across the function. Our Knowledge & Information Services team support the Knowledge Lawyers (eg maintaining internal knowledge collections, preparing newsletters and managing external resources).

All Knowledge Lawyers also work closely with colleagues with other specialisms, eg marketing and business development, innovation and learning and development.
