We like to say our people make our firm. We are a people business. Our recruitment process goes far beyond appraising technical skills or a cv: our goal is rather to get to know the people we are to hire, the people that will make the future of our firm.

We’re always on the look-out for world-class talent to join our team in Madrid. We recruit experienced corporate, finance, tax, real estate, ACT, P&R and litigation lawyers.
Given the global nature of our work, we are looking for lawyers who, as well as Spanish, can speak and write English fluently.

Academic excellence is a must. We also look for an analytical mind, an appetite for challenging work and a flair for the finer details of the law. In-depth market or industry knowledge is a distinct advantage.
Your legal skills are only half the story. We’re looking for people who will fit in easily with our colleagues and clients and bring something special to the mix.
