    Solicitor - Legal Counsel - Northampton, Northamptonshire, United Kingdom - Barclays

    Default job background
    Description
    Legal Counsel - Mortgages Lawyer

    As a Barclays Legal Counsel - Mortgages Lawyer, you will work with existing members of the Barclays UK (BUK) Legal team to provide assistance and legal advice on all aspects of Barclays' current and proposed product offerings in the BUK Secured Borrowing business, as well as to help businesses across the Barclays group in connection with secured regulated lending (mortgage) products.

    This is an opportunity to be involved in identifying and managing risk, and planning for change brought about by developing regulation.

    Barclays is one of the world's largest and most respected financial institutions, established in 1690, with a legacy of success, quality, and innovation.

    We offer careers that provide endless opportunity – helping millions of individuals and businesses thrive and creating financial and digital solutions that the world now takes for granted.

    At Barclays, we offer a hybrid working experience that blends the positives of working alongside colleagues at our onsite locations, together with working from home.

    We have a structured approach where colleagues work at an onsite location on fixed, 'anchor', days of the week, for a minimum of two days a week or more, as set by the business area (or nearest equivalent if working part-time hours).

    Please note that as we continue to embed our hybrid working environment, we remain in a test and learn phase, which means that working arrangements may be subject to change on reasonable notice to ensure we meet the needs of our business.

    Experience of working in a law firm and/or in-house with a financial services organisation


    • Technical expertise and competence in secured lending regulation (mortgages) and/or banking and regulated products more broadly, such as secured debt, etc
    Skills that will help you in the role:

    Northampton was the birthplace of Barclaycard in 1966 and we've been based in Pavilion Drive since the building opened in 1997.

    We purchased the building from the landlord in early 2018 as a sign of our commitment to investment in Northampton.

    Based just off the A45 it is easily accessible by both car and bus routes.
