We're currently looking for a high caliber professional to join our team as **Senior Vice President, Legal Counsel, Corporate Finance, Treasury & Trade - Hybrid** (Internal Job Title: Senior Lead Counsel 1 - **C14** ) based in Sydney, Australia. Being part of our team means that we'll provide you with the resources to meet your unique needs, empower you to make healthy decision and manage your financial well-being to help plan for your future.

These areas include legal projects involving such things as legislative and regulatory change affecting the broader business, including foreign legislative change affecting the local business and local legislative change affecting Citi businesses outside of Australia. Examples of projects that this position might get involved with are the modern slavery regime, climate reporting, privacy and data protection. All legal team members are expected to handle other cross franchise matters such as licencing queries, outsourcing and procurement contracts.

+ Extensive experience in dealing with legal issues and transactions in corporate finance, including acquisition finance, syndicated lending, bilateral secured and unsecured lending, commercial real estate financing, receivables financing and securitisation.
+ Comprehensive knowledge of Australian state and federal applicable laws and practices.
+ Proven analytical and organisational skills
+ A demonstrated ability to provide clear and concise written and verbal communication to varied audiences
+ Some broader commercial law experience
+ Flexibility and willingness to apply their skills to products, issues and legislation, in which they may not have had previous experience.
