What are we looking for?

We are now looking for Associates to join our Mergers & Acquisitions practice. We hope to meet both recent law graduates as well as lawyers with some experience within this field of work.

Our team is dedicated to advising clients on their most complex and demanding M&A deals, joint ventures, and strategic partnerships. Our commitment to professionalism, commercial insight, and client success is reflected in our consistent Tier 1 rankings and recognition in leading legal directories.

Depending on seniority, your role will involve assisting in the management of both private and public M&A transactions, conducting, and coordinating due diligence, drafting, and negotiating a broad range of transaction documents, inter-facing clients and other members of the deal working group. You will work in close collaboration with other members of our transaction and project teams and generally contribute to the development of our firm.

We are looking for you, if…

You share our values of providing first-class service while having fun doing it. You are excited about project work, understand the essence of teamwork and treat everyone with respect. Our ideal candidate has a Master’s degree in Law and experience from similar work, e.g. traineeships in law firms. Fluency in both Finnish and English is a prerequisite as our work has a strong international angle.
