Full Job Description
About 9fin 9fin is the AI platform powering global debt markets — the world’s largest asset class at over $145 trillion. Debt markets are vast, global, and mission-critical, yet still run on fragmented data, PDFs, and manual workflows. 9fin replaces this broken infrastructure with a single platform that centralises proprietary credit data, deep analysis, and high-value workflows across global markets. Today, 9fin powers teams at 300+ blue-chip institutions worldwide, including global banks, asset managers, private equity firms, law firms, and advisors. The business is scaling at exceptional speed, with rapid expansion in the US and best-in-class retention driven by deep workflow adoption. We’re at a defining inflection point. With proven product-market fit and strong, global market pull, 9fin is accelerating toward becoming the category-defining platform for debt markets worldwide. THE OPPORTUNITY We are a small, ambitious legal team that moves fast, takes ownership seriously, and genuinely enjoys the work we do together. Everyone on the team has real scope, and we invest in each other. This role is for a lawyer who loves what they do, and is keen to focus on commercial contracts. You will be the primary legal contact for Sales and RevOps, owning the deal flow that keeps the business moving and building real relationships with the people you support. Contracting with 9fin’s clients is the core, but negotiating with vendors also sits alongside that as an equally important part of the role. There is room to stretch into adjacent areas when the business needs it, and plenty of opportunity to grow as the team does. You are 5 to 7 years PQE, English or New York qualified, and looking for a role where your work genuinely matters from day one. We are open to London or New York, and will decide based on the strength of the candidate. You will report to the VP, General Counsel and work alongside a team that will back you. WHAT YOU'LL WORK ON Every day is different, but here'
