Finance Associate Attorney Secured Lending | Boston | Am Law 200 ranked

$260k - $390k

Watts & Associates Recruitment

Watts & Associates is working discreetly with a highly regarded Am Law 200 ranked law firm with a national and international platform seeking a midlevel Finance Associate Attorney to join its Boston, MA office.

This is a transactional finance role focused on secured lending, advising banks, institutional lenders, and borrowers across leveraged finance and commercial lending matters.

The team offers a collaborative, partner accessible environment with an emphasis on high quality client service, professional development, and long term progression. The broader platform supports mentoring and sponsorship, meaningful pro bono opportunities, and a comprehensive benefits and wellness approach.

The Opportunity

You will work on secured lending transactions from structuring through closing, including drafting and negotiating loan agreements, security documentation, intercreditor arrangements, commitment papers, and related closing deliverables, while developing strong lender and borrower side judgment.

Ideal Candidate Profile

The firm is seeking a midlevel Finance Associate Attorney with:

  • 3 to 6 years of law firm finance experience handling secured lending transactions
  • Experience representing both lenders and borrowers, including banks and institutional lenders
  • Strong drafting, editing, and negotiation experience across loan documents, security documents, intercreditor agreements, commitment papers, and closing documents
  • Bar admission in the practicing jurisdiction, or eligibility to waive in
  • Strong business judgment, client service mindset, initiative, and ability to work effectively within a team oriented practice

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This opportunity offers consistent exposure to sophisticated finance work within a well resourced Am Law platform, with meaningful responsibility on active matters and close collaboration with experienced partners and senior associates. It is a strong fit for an associate who wants to deepen secured lending capabilities while building durable client facing skills in a busy transactional practice.

Compensation

The anticipated salary range for this role is $260,000 to $390,000, depending on class year, experience and other relevant factors.

Relevant search terms: finance associate, secured lending, leveraged finance, commercial lending, syndicated lending, sponsor finance, acquisition finance, private credit, credit agreement, loan agreement, security agreement, intercreditor agreement, commitment letter, term loan, revolving credit facility, collateral, UCC, closing checklist, borrower side, lender side, institutional lender, bank finance, debt finance, finance transactions, corporate finance, Boston finance associate
