**Want to work with us to help the shift towards a more sustainable world?**
Are you looking for a new and exciting challenge within the legal field? Do you have an outspoken interest in M&A transactions, Private Equity, and the corporate law in general? Do you love being involved in fast moving transactions and sitting at the negotiation table?

The Legal Corporate Team consists of 4 experienced and highly motivated lawyers and is part of the Legal Transversal Services pillar within the Legal department. All team members are located in the bank’s headquarters in Brussels.
Our team advises on all M&A and private equity related transactions in which the bank and its subsidiaries are involved. In addition, thereto, the Team is also heavily involved in the bank’s overall corporate governance (alongside the Secretary General department), as well as being the local point of contact for any competition law related questions or matters. To top things of, the team also advises on all general corporate law related topics.
Considering the scope and focus of our areas of expertise, the Legal Corporate Team is continuously involved in high-profile innovative and exciting projects/transactions on the basis whereof BNP Paribas Fortis is differentiating itself from its peers on the market.

As a member of the Legal Corporate Team, you will mainly be dealing with the following matters:

- Intragroup restructurings (mergers, intragroup share transfers, etc.)
- General corporate law and corporate governance related question
- If an external legal counsel is involved, you will be handling the client-counsel relationship
- You will be involved in all stages of a transaction or project, ranging from the initial structuring phase until the signing/closing of the transaction.

- investment and/or share / asset purchase agreements
- shareholders’ /joint venture agreements

- You will have extensive contacts with a large variety of internal clients and external counterparties, and as the case may be, be part of the core transaction team. In this respect, you may also have regular contacts with key stakeholders within the organization, as well as with members of the bank’s senior management.
- You will also be actively involved in both the corporate law platform and M&A platform, for which you will work closely together with our legal colleagues in other territories where the BNP Paribas group is active
**Highlight your strengths**
- You have a Belgian Master’s degree in Law and have at least 5 years of relevant experience (either in a law firm or in-house) in the areas of M&A, Private Equity, and corporate law in general.

- You are a true team player, who enjoys sharing knowledge and working together with the other in-house lawyers within Legal and the business colleagues.
- You have strong communication and negotiation skills and you are able to convince others.
- You are pragmatic and solution oriented, but at the same time you have an eye for detail, are organized, and you never lose sight of the legal risks and applicable boundaries.
- You are flexible, business minded, and are willing to go the extra mile to get the deal done.
- You can express yourself fluently, both orally and in writing, in Dutch and English, and are proficient in French
- You should have proficient knowledge of Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint)
