Job Description
Rosie's People is looking to add an experienced Nigerian lawyer to its professional network to provide legal and regulatory support to the company and, where required, its clients.
The consultant will work on a matter-by-matter basis, with the scope of work and professional fees agreed for each assignment.
Important
- This is not a salaried job. There is:
- No guaranteed monthly salary
- No guaranteed retainer
- No minimum hours
- No guaranteed volume of work
- Instead, each assignment will have its own agreed scope, deliverables, timeline and professional fee. Fees may be hourly, fixed, milestone-based or another agreed structure.
Requirements
Applicants must:
- Be called to the Nigerian Bar and currently entitled to practise.
- Have at least 10 years' post-qualification legal experience.
- Be based in Lagos or Abuja and willing to travel between both locations when required.
- Have strong experience in commercial, corporate and dispute-resolution matters.
- Have demonstrable experience dealing with CBN and/or Nigerian financial-services regulation.
- Have experience working with international, multinational or foreign corporate clients.
- Have experience with regulatory submissions and representations.
- Have experience handling commercial disputes or debt-recovery matters.
- Demonstrate strong commercial judgment, communication and independent working ability.
- Be available immediately or at short notice.
- Experience with SEC Nigeria and CAC is desirable, while admission to practise in another international jurisdiction is also an advantage.
- Application
The application requires a covering letter answering six mandatory questions, particularly around your Nigerian Bar qualification, CBN experience, regulatory submissions, international corporate work, commercial disputes/debt recovery, availability and fee structure. Applicants are specifically told not to simply refer the employer to their CV.
