Senior Litigation Counsel

Kingsley Green Recruitment

Senior Litigation Counsel | US | Fintech

I’m currently working on an exciting opportunity for a Senior Litigation Counsel to join the US legal team of a high-growth, publicly listed fintech at a pivotal stage of its US expansion. This is a genuinely broad role covering government investigations, regulatory matters and litigation risk, with significant exposure to regulators and government agencies.

The role:

  • Lead and shape strategy around government investigations and regulatory matters
  • Conduct detailed fact-finding and investigation work
  • Manage and instruct external counsel where required
  • Draft clear, well-substantiated responses to regulators and government bodies
  • Work closely with US regulators as the business continues to expand its banking operations
  • Operate independently within a complex, matrix environment
  • Balance strategic legal advice with hands-on, commercial execution

What we're looking for:

  • Senior US litigator with hands-on government investigations and regulatory experience
  • Strong in-house experience following training at a leading law firm
  • Comfortable working independently and influencing across a matrix organisation
  • Pragmatic, commercially minded and very much a “doer”
  • Experience within a lean legal team, particularly in financial services/banking, would be advantageous
  • Consumer-facing litigation experience is highly desirable
  • Candidates from a regulator or consumer-facing financial organisation with regulatory exposure may also be considered

Location: New York, NY or Columbus, OH

Candidates must currently live within commutable distance of one of these locations.

This is a great opportunity for someone looking to have real influence over a growing US legal and regulatory function, with the scope to shape the role as the business continues to scale.

Interested? Please email me at View email address on apply.j-vers.com for further details.
